Pros
I really wish I had some to give you.
Cons
The problems here start at the top. Oppressive, disrespectful leadership. Against the advice of a couple of people in my life who warned me not to work here, I traveled down what would be one of the worst and most toxic work environments I've worked in. On the outside the perks seem amazing: working at a multi-cultural agency making a difference, putting your fingerprints on the best multicultural projects in Hollywood, immersing yourself in your own culture at work for a change, working for the managers of Snoop Dogg! You will quickly realize that joy is still a dream deferred. Absolutely no work-life balance, the expectance for you to be on the clock or on-call 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, the countless nights in the office until 1-2am, and the verbal abuse: it all weighs on you. For a company to be given AdAge's 2019 Multicultural Agency of the Year, they can't keep multicultural talent. The amounts of African-American talent that have came and left out of those doors and onto monumental feats are staggering. Some employees cope with the work load with Adderall to complete their tasks. Some have been forced deeper into therapy (but too bad the expensive health benefits don't fully cover it). Some escape to their cars when they have time to take a lunch break and just cry. I beg of you to please just continue your job search. The allure of working in Hollywood will be fleeting and you are honestly better off being broke until something better comes along.
