Pros

The company is Omnicom owned. This means that you get all the benefits that they have to offer as a large company. Most of the employees are great people, although their talent is undermined by the CEO. Most people leave the office at a decent hour every night.

Cons

The CEO cannot maintain a consistent direction for the company. The upheaval this causes for the employees is highly unproductive, and inefficient. It also makes our clients unsure of us. The CEO is also prone to mood swings, which can make your life there unpleasant. This instability is something an employee can only take for so long before they lose trust and respect for their company and it's leaders.

Most people have 5+ years working at TPG, a rare feat for an ad agency.

Pros

TPG is a great place to work; the work is interesting and at times challenges you to stretch your skill set and grow. You have the opportunity to take on new things and expand your career horizons and learn. Recently the agency has sharpened its focus on a few industry verticals, which has helped business grow and enables the team to keep their eyes on the ball. The location is great, too - very close to the great restaurants, lunch spots and activities of downtown Philadelphia, but sited along the river, which makes it easily commutable (good parking) for people who drive in or take transit into the city. It's very easy, when the work day is done (or the work week) to head out for fun in the city. The team is also quite fun to hang out with; there are ad hoc get togethers or holiday celebrations, free soft pretzels and beverages on Friday, a good overall vibe.

Cons

There were some recent challenges with more macro economic issues outside of here that caused a little bit of turmoil, but the dust has settled down over the past 6 months and things are really clicking now.
