Pros

The people, the quality of clients, the resources, travel opportunities, big budgets.

Cons

- It seems like it's hit or miss in terms of quality managers - some are great, others are dreadful. - Little work/life balance; long hours. - Promotional cycles are too limited. - Offices are open space and we all sit way too close to one another.

Pros

I worked with some of the brightest and best people in the business. Most of them are no longer with the company. Some good clients, and nice office space.

Cons

Very limited opportunities for growth. During my time they reduced promotions to only once a year, and made many excuses for promoting as few people as possible (despite becoming the first "$1B" agency at that time). Morale was extremely low. People were forced to come into an office with nobody they actually worked with. Common to be passed from manager to manager. At one point I had 6+ managers within a 10-month span.
