Pros

The only reason why anyone joins is client list

Cons

Micro management Zero respect shown to junior people. Management over here believes in drowning people with work and then trying to oversee every step. Most supervisors or managers or even leaders have no training or skills in people management as a result what happens is that they try and establish their own rules and turf. Result is chaos. No proper team structure Each individual must work on a minimum of 5 clients. This is the belief of leadership (including CEO) which means that people are inundated with work. As most clients are consumer brands there is a lot of work across seeding, collabs, events apart from media and documentation. Means work NEVER ENDS. Also, 5 accounts means atleast 3 different managers, sometimes all 5 are different people! And then those managers in turn report to different leaders. Basically, it is mad max. Superficial priorities At this place people pay more attention to how you dress, wear MU, talk in English, which socalite/ influencer your friends with. All superficial things and not much attention is given to actual work. Toxic work environment Most managers and senior people only pass on their work to juniors. Its a slave driving factory with a super toxic work culture. Wish more people would speak up but basis my actual experience and other colleagues, DO NOT JOIN this place. If due to the pandemic clients temporarily stop work, they are unprofessional and almost force you to leave without any notice or pay. They use a term “furlough”. This place sucks. This has happened to people in 2020 and this year also

Pros

You get the best brands on your CV, and get the experience of working in a corporate environment.

Cons

Interns are given all the work the juniors don't want to do. There is no clear explanation about HOW tasks are to be completed; they are just expected to be. Everyone is so busy that no guidance is provided. Most of the work is keeping in touch with influencers - sending them packages, inviting them to events, and giving them concepts for brand deals. Barely any meaningful work was carried out. HR!!! Extremely unresponsive. They sometimes forget to inform when there is a rainy day, and they don't open texts. It's a very relaxed attitude that costs the employees.
