Pros

Projects are interesting and challenging. Highly intelligent, very fun roll-up-your-sleeve teams. Immense opportunity to learn the ins and outs of all things marketing. Definitely a place where you can take an idea from concept to fruition and take ownership of projects. It's a hard working environment which brings me tons of satisfaction watching projects take shape and succeed.

Cons

Occasional long hours / Tight deadlines.

Thanks for your comments and your advice. Scaling our business is a challenge we think about a lot, and I'm not sure we've figured it out yet. Thanks very much for your candor.

Pros

Most people have 5+ years working at TPG, a rare feat for an ad agency.

Cons

There are slow weeks at times but when it rains, it pours.

Pros

TPG is a great place to work; the work is interesting and at times challenges you to stretch your skill set and grow. You have the opportunity to take on new things and expand your career horizons and learn. Recently the agency has sharpened its focus on a few industry verticals, which has helped business grow and enables the team to keep their eyes on the ball. The location is great, too - very close to the great restaurants, lunch spots and activities of downtown Philadelphia, but sited along the river, which makes it easily commutable (good parking) for people who drive in or take transit into the city. It's very easy, when the work day is done (or the work week) to head out for fun in the city. The team is also quite fun to hang out with; there are ad hoc get togethers or holiday celebrations, free soft pretzels and beverages on Friday, a good overall vibe.

Cons

There were some recent challenges with more macro economic issues outside of here that caused a little bit of turmoil, but the dust has settled down over the past 6 months and things are really clicking now.
