- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Great people and amazing talent Amazing projects
Cons
High expectations at all times
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Hotel points and air miles
Cons
The EMs are abusive, you spend 16 hrs a day adjusting random circles or squares on hundreds of PowerPoint slides, you are literally told to make the numbers fit. They have no integrity and complain about the clients and also make them cry in bathroom stalls. The worst place filled some good people and a lot of terrible human beings. Work life balance is of course non existent but did I learn anything? I learned that I need sleep, to eat more than once a day and 80hrs a week to create nonsense PowerPoint is not fulfilling.
