Pros

People Work life balance depending on the team Decent perks Big clients, majority of them are fun to work with

Cons

Constant layoffs, leading to stress because the decision is not based on performance more so based on how profitable you can be. Lack of integration with said other agencies. Constant talks about becoming “one”. It’s been years and it is still very much isolated. AI as a buzzword. Eye roll. Poor career advancement/no raises/no promotions. Preferred to line investors pockets than to pay the workers who deserve it.

Pros

Not that are worth mentioning as a serious point of reference.

Cons

Overall decline , no future prospect of inflation compensation for the last years. A lot of marketing speak to the employees. Teams being hollowed out and more projects depend on external vendors freelancers or lower wage countries.
