Pros

Strategically-focused agency with a great reputation. Top tier clients in a wide range of industries. Talented staff with good marketing experience.

Cons

Agency allowed the personal politics of leaders to affect the careers of others. Employees were literally asked to "choose sides" and who they wanted to work for at the home office. Employees in the office they were attempting to rebuild in a major market did not have that choice and were all laid off. Poor leadership.

Thank you for your sharing your feedback regarding your work experience. Working at a creative agency like RAPP should be an emotionally and professionally rewarding experience. We recognize that can be difficult if employees feel hampered by office politics. Indeed, building strong, productive interactions and engaging in meaningful dialogue not only with our clients, but also with each other, regardless of a employee’s location or function, is not just an aspiration for us, but central to fulfilling our mandate. We hope that you will check in with us periodically to watch our evolution. In the meantime, don’t hesitate to reach out to me at devin.oloughlin@rapp.com if you’d like to talk in further about your experience.
