Pros

- There's a lot of budget flying around for hiring. They throw big offers at new senior hires and hope it's enough to keep you. (It isn't.) - There are some lovely smart people. (Not enough of them at leadership level.)

Cons

A misguided agency strategy coming from leadership deciding they're a consultancy not an agency. Doing neither very well. Confusing and demoralising. Bad hiring choices in the creative department, causing a lot of damage to loyal staff morale, for zero results. Poor leadership effectiveness, no communication skills or emotional intelligence. A lot of hot air, jargon and not much else. Weak strategy lead, running an under-developed strategy team. Clients get basic basic basic thinking, that other agencies would be embarrassed to present. Account teams are told to chase the dollar not the quality or the creativity. Coupled with awful processes, this makes it a depressing, dog-eat-dog, demoralising place to work. Left at the same time as about 10 other people.
