Pros

Big Clients and many platforms to work on

Cons

inefficient process you would be doing tasks that anyone can do, you would spend the whole day copy pasting stuff instead of actually using your experience. the seniors give the tasks and the way to do them with little guidance, you also have no say in anything what so ever, you just need to follow the "process" no matter how slow or inefficient you would do any bs which has nothing to do with your exp. copy pasting stuff all day, coloring power point slides, just shut up and obey that's their moto people will send emails until 22:00, you would get emails from everyone even if you don't work with them because your part of an email "alias" overall very hard to understand anything no room to grow, no space to excel and no way that you can get involved further and improve things to actually prove your worth and learn something along the way

Pros

I’ve been with dentsu for 4 years and I’ve really enjoyed my time. I’ve learned a lot, and worked with very smart people internally and had had interesting clients externally. Making the jump to a big agency was lethal in my professional career. This company offers great flexibility, and awesome PTO. I was able to get promoted, however promotions take a long time.

Cons

Some clients are extremely demanding. Long nights where the clients want to activate something that day or next day and our own internal teams don’t have our back and are also pushing for out of control activations. In my 4 years here, we had one annual salary raise which is not acceptable or fair to everyone. The market rate is way above what we’re getting paid. Dentsu needs to keep up as they’re on the lower end of the pay range and people are leaving because we’re losing hope of ever getting a salary raise when we could job hop and easily get 20% more. Truly disappointing since I have enjoyed my time here. The company has lost major clients and it’s difficult to feel hope for any promotions or raises.
