Pros

Decent pay and benefits some large and exciting clients. Really smarty and dedicated team members across practices.

Cons

Can be very demanding and a bit toxic. Deadlines are tight and often unreasonable. Teams are staffed very lean and rarely restructured or expanded to address overallocated team members. Frequent overtime.

Pros

You have a CEO who wears a fun hat, so that means he's down with the young folks, I guess.

Cons

It's literally no different than all the other corporate agencies. You won't sleep, you won't eat, and you'll get thrown under the bus. You'll be graded not on your performance, but on how well you follow mundane processes that do literally nothing to produce quality work. Management is obsessed with adding new documents or micromanaging policies for everything they can. Just because employees aren't being yelled at doesn't mean the environment isn't toxic. You will not have a life here, They will not set you up for success.
