Pros

Some of the people at Dailey are kind and hard-working people.

Cons

Dailey & Associates is incredibly cheap (and they have this reputation in the advertising community of Los Angeles). They do not give regular yearly raises or performance reviews and when they do, the raise is extremely small. If you have a problem with the how they handle reviews, specifically, if you wanted to go to HR about it, at Dailey, I wouldn't bother as there is only on person working in that department. Unlike other IPG companies or other Los Angeles agencies, they no longer have Summer Hours available (be ready to stay until at least 5:00PM every Friday in the summer). Also, they are open the week between Christmas and New Years Eve (unlike other agencies). These two changes came about when Bruce Miller was named CEO. Regardless of your position, be prepared to fork over roughly $80 a month of your salary to pay for the parking in the Pacific Design Center. Other IPG agencies in the Pacific Design Center pay for their employees to park there. The agency does not care about company morale at all. It is all about the bottom line. They don't care about whom they have to lay off as long as they make their numbers.

Great People Stuck in a Severe Downward Spiral

Pros

Fun and friendly coworkers, leave the office at 5p, dog-friendly office, bagel Monday/donut Friday, subsidized soda machines

Cons

Employees not held to same standards. Severe favoritism. Incredibly political. Poor hiring practices. No communication from upper management about agency performance or layoffs. No aggressive pursuit of new clients. No pursuit of cutting-edge work. You have to pay for expensive parking. It's near-impossible to get a performance review and as part of that, there's no raises or bonuses and very few promotions.
