Pros

Really smart people. Smart researchers and news consultants. Although the TV News division is struggling, the Dallas office is doing amazing, ground breaking research in the package goods area.

Cons

Scary and horrible place to work. Long time employees just disappear and you don't know why. Head of NY office-gone, Head of LA office - gone. Head of News division - gone. Memos from COO saying they cannot cover payroll and don't have the funds to hire new people. Not sure who wrote the other two recent reviews, but those do not reflect the feelings of the rank and file. It seems like the President, who is the son of the founder, does not care about the companies legacy or stellar reputation. This was once a great company of talented people and integrity. Now they send in the senior people to sell a project but then dump all the real work on the junior associates. High employee turnover and even higher rate of dissatisfied clients who only do business once with this company. I, along with many of my peers are looking to get out of this crazy place before my payroll check bounces.

Pros

Minimal - maybe left alone when liked by leadership?

Cons

Countless - deceptive on what the company does. No direction or understanding of execution. No investment to execute or support. Ultimately after hire any idea, strategy, or approach will be shut down if it doesn’t create immediate dollar value for ownership.
