Pros

I worked for WS Tokyo office. Tokyo office was horrible, but the worldwide network and communication between global employees were great. If you can survive for 2-3 years, you might get a better job.

Cons

The company was disorganized and sent new-to-the-field employees to its clients as experts. After the CEO left abruptly, inadequate company director acted as the company top. His personal preference over resided the quality of work. Employees quit in a few months to a few years. Most of them start looking for a job within 3 months of starting.

Pros

At a time of high disruption within the communications industry, Weber Shandwick seems to be more focused on how it can adapt and improve than resist change. And while most agencies seem to only pay lip-service to the concept that their people are their greatest asset, Weber actually treats its people well, listens to great ideas, and empowers people to do more.

Cons

It's a very big agency, which isn't the best fit for everyone.
