Pros
With a military client, work was diverse, fast and furious. For a young person getting his/her foot in the door, you could work on a commercial one day and an experiential campaign the other. The creatives at JE were so full of energy and did such great work.
Cons
The CEO. He has no idea how to run an agency and has zero focus. He treats employees like children and has no idea how lucky he was. I've seen him walk the halls at 5PM doing bed checks, congratulating people for staying late. He does the same thing at 8 AM making sure everybody is in their seats. He gets angry when people are not in their seats -- even when they are brainstorming in common areas. He berated employees in front of the client. He offered no strategic vision for the company he wanted to create. He blew a $110 million account with a military branch. After he lost this account, and fired 50 people with no severance, he's apparently trying to get more accounts and luring whoever he can get to work for him. It's tempting to look at reviews with a grain of salt with the idea that your experience will be different. It won't.
