Pros

I get projects from a number of creative recruiting agencies. Hands down, Aquent's recruiters are the best--they are authentic and considerate. Other agencies give you the sense that you are a "thing" to profit from. It shows in the fake-ish way they address you and the different shades of fake depending on your current value. With Aquent, I feel like I am respected and appreciated. Also, the Aquent staff actually know what the projects are about (other companies don't, for real).

Cons

1) The pay scale could be higher considering the high profits that creative agencies make. 2) Not enough work.

Pros

Some nice intelligent educated coworkers

Cons

Lack of transperancy, job placement wages stagnant for over 5 years with no raise, after finishing multiple contracts and bringing them thousands of dollars with my labor, no follow up on new positions. Finally contacted me about one position I would be perfect for then ghosted me. Blatant ageism using words like "junior" or "great position for recent grad". Had one horrific experience with them where they reached out to me to work on a team that loved me/loved my work - when I inquired if there was any flexibility in the pay, was suddenly told I wasn't qualified. Then I see the same listing reposted as "junior" and great for a recent grad.
