Pros

Interesting client roster, high quality of creative output coming from this shop.

Cons

Don't intern here, you won't learn anything. They go out of their way to emphasize their 'Residency Program' and how they don't call their interns 'interns' because they view them as equals etc, etc. That's not the case at all, my mentor was completely non-existent. I could've not come to work for an entire week and they wouldn't have noticed, seriously. It's obvious some of the department heads and executives don't like each other, too. Passive aggressiveness runs rampant here.

Pros

One thing you would hear from everyone that worked here is great people, and it's true. People are amazing here, they built the culture. This is not 100+ people agency that every single time you passed someone you would keep thinking, "What's his/her name?" Works are alright, there are really not much you can innovate with pet food, social posts and banners. You will definitely make stuffs because they are always understaffed, and you will be on 3+ projects the whole time.

Cons

- There doesn't seem to be a plan for the agency since the pervious ECD left. For the size of the agency like EVB, there should always be a plan to grow. If you look at agencies that start at the same time, Venables / Heat / Eleven Inc, they all have a steady growth and doing bigger things now. But EVB doesn't seems to have one or just fail to execute. - Like all agencies, process, some agencies are better than the other. EVB just have none, pretty much you have to figure it out.
