A sinking ship....

Pros

People at my site were nice and did the best they could with what they were given.

Cons

Trying to pivot from legacy printer to “agency solutions” and marketing, but the execution is hilariously bad. Leadership is clueless, and management wants to run studios like factories because that’s all they know. Clients are unprofitable and creatively vapid. No decent agency wants them, but they’re all that Quad’s inept sales team can land. Quad claims to care about employees but their first reaction to every problem is to lay people off. I will be very surprised if this company still exists 10 years from now.
