Pros

Private healthcare, everyone v friendly unless it's in a high stress work moment (unfortunately frequent), you might get lucky with a cool project, if high blood pressure agencies are ur vibe then you'll have a ball.

Cons

Despite the wild work on the website, it's a pitch and FMCG machine once you're in unless you luck out. High burnout, high turnover, bullying goes on despite 'mental health week' posts u might see as publicity. Clients aren't managed well which leads to lots of stress and leavers across departments.

Pros

It's been such a pleasure, joy and fresh air to work here. I'm respected, as is my work life balance.

Cons

Leadership hasn't always been consistent with their words and actions, making it feel scary and tumultuous at times.

Pros

Benefits are good. - Health insurance, 401k, unlimited PTO

Cons

The main concern is the volatility of job security lately; there have been a lot of layoffs lately, and that means an increase in workload for those of us still left. Clients can either make the experience good or bad depending on how demanding and nitpicky they are. I'm currently on 5 accounts, but one client is making work unbearable.
