Pros

Was an incredible place to work when I first started. My team was incredible and the office was always bright and bubbly.

Cons

I was fired by a manager who never 'clicked with me' and all my end of probation feedback was during one shocker of a week I had. No positive feedback was given.

Pros

Prior to the Omnicom takeover, employees had monthly wellness days,every conceivable public holiday off plus a full week in August off for employee appreciation and then between Xmas and New years the offices were closed. Salaries were satisfactory. They did try to staff teams accordingly, only to have them taken away.

Cons

vacation time and holiday time off is now downsized. Next to no remote employment. Back to office is 3 days and space in the offices is limited. Due to merger layoffs, more work for those who are left, and salaries are not as robust to lure new candidates. No warning on dept downsizing, they all say " I knew nothing"
