Pros

Growing company that does strive for Excellence as far as the customer experience.

Cons

Non-existence of HR department, who only seem to care about upper management. Managers work remotly with very little supervision who are free to abuse employees, play favorites and have little to no managemnt skills. You are expected to be on call 24/7, work on your days off and vacations. Phone calls and emails are constant and you will be written up for not working on your days off. No quality of life because of the constant demands with very poor pay. Promised bonuses have been suspended for now, no pay increases, horribly expensive benifits.

Pros

Great company. Although laid off, we did get a severance package. Good PTO and flexibility.

Cons

I would suggest seeing if other positions within the company would be a good fit before laying off your good employees with no other options to keep them with the company.

Pros

There are pockets of talent and smarts on the creative side of the business, and I absolutely adored my immediate coworkers and my manager.

Cons

Senior leadership is an absolute mess. They will get us all together for these pep rallies, demand we “AMP IT UP”, then turn around and screw us mercilessly when it comes to raises, bonuses and job security. There is also quite a bit of platonic nepotism happening on the creative end of the business, with people who lend no real value to the work sitting at the very top of the creative pyramid solely because of their relationship to senior leaders. These people are being carried on the shoulders of their creative directors and ACDs, who are all criminally underpaid and under appreciated. With round after round of layoffs, no new wins, and leaders who demand high energy, long hours, and good attitudes at all times, I would strongly advise creatives to steer clear of this train wreck of an agency.
