Pros

- big name clients, so you'll be kept busy - amazing work/life balance. Very rare to find anyone in the office past 5:30pm - offers training program to make sure employees know the media buying industry inside and out - great starting salary for recent grads (especially if you're brought on full time) - great perks and benefits: healthcare, company parties, free lunches and happy hours occasionally

Cons

if you're brought on as a temp, you're either going to enjoy or dislike the job. Not much projects/assignments are distributed until you become full time status

Pros

fun media events, occasional lunches, work/life balance is decent

Cons

Salary is insulting and growth is stagnant, managers and leadership who throw tantrums (i.e. screaming, storming off, dismissing employees, sending attacking messages) without consequence, instances of very inappropriate relationships and conversation in the workplace, and the place is a rumor mill. Derogatory comments and sexual conversations/relationships shouldn’t be happening at all, let alone stemming from leadership. Unsure if HR is really just that oblivious or if a blind eye is turned, but with the amount I’ve witnessed in just a short period of time, I can’t imagine what else goes on here.
