      Pros

      - Very experienced senior colleagues across the business who you can learn from daily - Interesting and challenging client base - Sophisticated offering of central services (Edelman Intelligence, Digital, Creative..etc.) - Paid a bonus this year

      Cons

      - Fairly long hours (but you are in change of your own work/life balance) - Pressure to take holiday when it suits the business rather than you - The values of the company are a bit of a joke considering some of the questionable clients we still work for

      Thanks for your review. I'm glad you're impressed with your colleagues, the firm's centralized specialty offerings, your client exposure, and who doesn't love getting a bonus! Your comment about our values and clients bothers me. I hope you know that while I firmly believe we take all our firm values seriously, that if you've been asked to work on a client that is against your personal values, you can absolutely decline. Please discuss this with your local HR leader or reach out to me if you'd like. Maria O'Keeffe, Executive Director, US HR

      Pros

      As always, the people you work with. Nice office spaces.

      Cons

      Uncertainty and contradictory information. 'Senior' teams have client meetings and make decisions that are not relayed to the teams, solo miscommunication and frustration is the bread and butter of operation. They don't have business visiblity for the next 2-3 weeks so they try to pivot and impress the client up to 3 times a day, which is time consuming, it burns out and rarely anything gets to the client. A very vertical organization, something is right or wrong simply because a 'VP' says so. They claim to be supportive, to have programs, to do everything for their employees, but when you actually need something, you realize you're on your own.
