Pros

Paid time off, benefits, candy machines, downtown Detroit, SOME of the people.

Cons

Terrible leadership over the creative department. If you can even call it leadership. The people that are hard working, talented, and overall good people to work for get no respect and continue to get stepped on by privileged, unprofessional, mentally abusive, and irrational upper management. It is complete chaos on the creative floor. No supervision whatsoever. People can basically do what they want with no repercussions and no one holding them accountable for their actions. If you are a smart and talented woman, RUN! They hate that there. Also a lot of scandalous things that happen around the office that HR knows about but no one talks about. If you are immorally corrupt and have no sense of self worth or credibility of being a semi decent person, then this is the place for you.

Pros

- Big work. High visibility. Smart people. - There's a lot of camaraderie among the in-house folks, as the client can be a little difficult. - Things are looking up. No matter what has happened in the past, everyone is starting to look forward and concentrate on the future. - It's what you make it. While it feels a little corporate sometimes, your attitude about your work will be the ultimate determining factor in what you get out of the experience. This is a place for the self-starters, the self-motivated. You can do great things if you want to!

Cons

- There are some leftover bad attitudes from the merger. They'll drop off eventually, but you can sense it sometimes. To these people, I say, GET. OVER. IT. It will be healthier for you if you do. - More focused on traditional work. Not a ton of interest in digital. This will change! But that's how it is for now. - Senior leadership comes around like a blue moon and talks a big talk. But when they leave, things calm down and the people who run the day-to-day can continue concentrating on the work.
