Pros

Coffee is nice... other than that, nothing positive to say.

Cons

- Owned by Samsung, this agency wouldn't survive without them. - Constant flow of unimaginative, uninspiring work... delivered daily! - Demanding, unrealistic deadlines from a client you can't say no to as they OWN you! - Barely any permanent members of staff. Freelancers last about 3 months at most. Huge staff turnover makes it very unsettling. Just left with the bad eggs! - No internal processes, zero desire for change and outdated approach with the 'old guard' making life difficult. - Internal politics, favouritism/nepotism from management. 'Clickly' atmosphere. - Endless meetings to justify existence and micromanaging. - Rat infested building and Windows 95 laptops.

Pros

Medical, vision, dental, and overall health care coverage is great

Cons

no cons regarding health care. There are two types: high deductible and low deductible. If you choose high deductible you will pay almost nothing

Pros

well paid, cool coworkers, interesting projects occasionally

Cons

favoritism is big here, a lot of the CD's can't actually give good direction and regularly tank our chances for pitches
