Not a good experience.

Pros

Loved the people I worked with

Cons

I never once felt appreciated or respected by my boss & upper management. I was verbally disrespected numerous times. I felt like I could never share my opinion or speak up without being punished for it. Positive feedback from management was very rare, only negative feedback and accusations. Lots of negative gossip. People are really unhappy. Promotions without raises. No room for growth. Constant layoffs. The list goes on.

Waste of time and life. Great if you love lots of uncompensated overtime and stress.

Pros

One or two out of the many Creative Directors and Account Directors there were knowledgeable and inspiring. I got to produce work for well known clients.

Cons

Alcone Marketing was almost perpetually understaffed. They had no HR department. There was low moral throughout the Creative Department. The Account Department couldn't manage client expectations or were too overwhelmed to. There was fast turnover of employees, as well as frequent layoffs. You can't create in a vacuum and Alcone was a vacuum. They wanted to own their employees' lives 24-7 so don't plan on gaining any creative inspiration or ideas from the other areas/interests/people of your life because you won't have any. You'll be too busy working ridiculous hours and weekends for a mediocre salary because they won't spend the money to staff up properly and can't hold onto good employees long enough to ever have adequate staff. Terrible place to work if you are female or have a spouse/kids.

Not an Ad Agency unless you call Sunday coupon ads "creative advertising"...

Pros

Great people. Some cool clients.

Cons

Namesake occasionally interferes with creative process and throws all into a tailspin. So quite for a Creative Department, like working in a morgue/library.
