Pros

You get to work with some really massive, recognizable brands, which is great for the resume. The best part is the autonomy, management trusts you to run your accounts without breathing down your neck. It’s a solid place for people who like to "own" their work. Plus, the emphasis on actual strategy rather than just answering support tickets makes the day-to-day feel much more impactful.

Cons

The product list is huge, so it feels like you’re constantly learning something new. Which is addressed with several training avenues they offer.
