Pros

People up to mid/upper-level are cool. Creative team does a lot of fun and interesting things. Downtown location is a great place to be.

Cons

Upper management and HR is inexperienced and their decisions reflect a reactive process. Hiring was done largely by headhunters. It seemed like a new title was created with each new hire. Salary progression was pretty slow, and as such, new hires were often brought in at higher salaries than their existing peers. Analytics team disintegrated pretty quickly. Went from 7 members to 3 in about a year. From what I've heard recently, they're down to 1 since I left. Almost all industries are increasing their capabilities in this area, and it puts this company at a disadvantage.

Pros

The reputation of the agency, the client list and most of the people are really nice. Very remote friendly, too.

Cons

Burnout central: unrealistic workload expectations, especially for those mid-level. Two people have left this year because of burn out, specifically. Only join if you're an adrenaline and cortisol junkie workaholic who thrives off working 12+ hour days and weekends to survive.
