Pros

Digitas is full of great people who are super smart and cool too. They also foster an independent work style where employees are able to carve out a niche for themselves based on their own work style. We have cool clients -- all household names -- so when people ask what you do they will be engaged and want to talk to you more about it. It's also a fun and youthful environment with fun company events, free bagels, and lots of beer.

Cons

The work schedules are crazy and it's left to each individual to navigate this for themselves. It's really hard for new people espeically. You have to defend your personal time without remorse! If you do a good job no one will care. i also think that being surrounded by type As all the time can be draining.

Pros

The location and annual volunteer day the entire company participates in. Digitas is very generous with their staff parties as well. Pay is not too bad.

Cons

Very "he said/she said" place. Depending on your employment level ( I was admin ) - you are treated very differently. Digitas is known to fire their employees without formal warnings. They fired an employee 2 weeks before Christmas! Heartless. Moreover, it is very important that this company better train their managers. There is a training department in the education dept which was pretty decent - but the VP of that department lacked focus. I believe she now works in HR. If so, I would highly advise for this company to train these exact managers and HR reps. It is unfair to treat employees the way they do. Asking them to work sometimes 9 hours a day. Although, the overtime pay isn't half bad.
