Pros

Extremely reputable agency with very talented people. Definitely ahead of the curve from a technical and creative perspective. Learned a great deal during my time there.

Cons

The Austin leadership team fostered a culture of over work, low morale and lots of promotions to people who were merely friends of the leadership or simply said what leadership of that office wanted to hear. No one can stand up to say hey things are really bad here and what can we do to fix.? So fearful of being honest. These promoted individuals had little skills in managing events, being a project manager let alone driving the strategic thinking of how events should be executed at an agency of this caliber. The pay is also very low. Very easy to leave GPJ for a very significant increase in salary to do basically the same role.
