Pros

Individual acceptance (no discrimination based on preferred hairstyles, alt-type appearances, clothing, etc). Continuous efforts for comradery & team building. Decent pay opportunities depending on the team you're hired in on.

Cons

Poor communication by direct management & overall leadership. Lack of proper training, very much left to figure it out for yourself. Lack of support despite leadership claiming otherwise. Did not feel comfortable going to leadership with questions/concerns when it was necessary to do so. Management/leadership continuously pushing for your work to be infallible despite their inability to do so themselves. Reports to HR are disregarded. Training opportunities used to intentionally manipulate employment outcomes. Missing critical info on employee communications/documents despite constant insistence for accuracy on your part. Any further assistance is directed to a very poorly setup automated toll-free number that may hangup on you depending on the chosen selection - Very Difficult to speak with an actual human being. Incredibly difficult to get a full conversation in with either HR or management without being cut-off mid-sentence.

Pros

Great company. Although laid off, we did get a severance package. Good PTO and flexibility.

Cons

I would suggest seeing if other positions within the company would be a good fit before laying off your good employees with no other options to keep them with the company.

Pros

There are pockets of talent and smarts on the creative side of the business, and I absolutely adored my immediate coworkers and my manager.

Cons

Senior leadership is an absolute mess. They will get us all together for these pep rallies, demand we “AMP IT UP”, then turn around and screw us mercilessly when it comes to raises, bonuses and job security. There is also quite a bit of platonic nepotism happening on the creative end of the business, with people who lend no real value to the work sitting at the very top of the creative pyramid solely because of their relationship to senior leaders. These people are being carried on the shoulders of their creative directors and ACDs, who are all criminally underpaid and under appreciated. With round after round of layoffs, no new wins, and leaders who demand high energy, long hours, and good attitudes at all times, I would strongly advise creatives to steer clear of this train wreck of an agency.
