Pros

I work on a very supportive and collaborative team, and there seems to be a lot of room for growth for those who are smart are willing to work. The leadership team is good about openly communicating with staff, management generally keeps an open door policy and there are a lot of fun projects to work on.

Cons

Because of the nature of the industry, there is always potential for long hours (every day is different, so you never know just which day will involve long hours). Expect to juggle many things at once.

Pros

I worked with some of the brightest and best people in the business. Most of them are no longer with the company. Some good clients, and nice office space.

Cons

Very limited opportunities for growth. During my time they reduced promotions to only once a year, and made many excuses for promoting as few people as possible (despite becoming the first "$1B" agency at that time). Morale was extremely low. People were forced to come into an office with nobody they actually worked with. Common to be passed from manager to manager. At one point I had 6+ managers within a 10-month span.
