Pros

Massive int'l agency that works with top brands around the world.

Cons

The company dramatically grew through M&A and has very poor top-down leadership with no clear direction and a lot of turnover. Their public reputation has suffered, driving down the stock value and causing company-wide layoffs.

Pros

Good pay. Started as a solid brand with talented coworkers.

Cons

No real upward mobility or promotion opportunity. Higher-level senior management is disconnected from creative leadership and tends to gamble a bit too much with client relationships. Agency promises a lot of benefits and growth opportunities for employees that do not come to fruition. When budgets get tight, they cut creative teams regardless of whether the account and employee have been performing well for the agency.
