Pros

Paid way better than most ad agencies in the country. Actually had a good work-life balance and managed to get out at 5:30pm most of the time. At the beginning it had great team culture

Cons

Experienced growing pains due to team reorgs. Went from feeling like a family team that had good culture to a typical ad agency that sees the employees only as numbers
