Pros

Great coworkers and very collaborative culture. People are smart, helpful, and fun to be around. Base pay is good.

Cons

Recent restructuring was very poorly handled by leadership. There was a complete lack of direction and thoughtfulness that lead to chaos and confusion among the employees. Also, the vast majority of employees have not seen a bonus or pay increase in years, even those that are strong performers.

Pros

Hard working associates, mostly bright (and admirable) heads of department. Good benefits. Previous CEO seemed like a genuinely nice guy and would listen to you if you approached him about something.

Cons

There’s a lot of reasons why top notch talent has long jumped ship. Great at sounding smart…terrible at actually getting the revenue to avoid the wholesale data asset sell offs going on. Terribly overcomplicated product portfolios with inflexible solutions at higher costs than smaller leading agencies that have outpaced them. Department heads gaslighting everyone under VPs about performance when they aren’t winning the internal Hunger Games and are told to reduce headcount.
