Pros

Several professional growth opportunities. Friendly colleagues. Experienced colleagues and resources to draw from. Promotes work/life balance.

Cons

While a work/life balance is promoted, it is hard to do. Possible career paths overwhelming to new comers. Day-to-day account positions have little to no contact with upper management - I know they work on accounts and the company, however I'm not sure what they actually do.

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.
