Pros
Brands are eager to buy Global each and Local offices make it a unique proposition Close to culture (but do not contribute to culture) Work with talent (even if only unmeaningful way) Nice office Autonomy Opened up doors for me in the future The UK ceo / MD is a decent person
Cons
Bullying, intimidation and sexism is engrained into everyday life at vice Hard to offer brands true value within campaigns cause it’s not ‘cool’ to do overt advertising (which is rubbish) Zero diversity - mostly old white men making decisions Psycho editors Cowboy HR - no real support Low pay (apart from if in the boys club) which makes it impossible to manage Homogenised creativity Negative ‘ironic’ perspective gets old v quickly Unimaginative content No direction Too much drinking and drugs - part of day to day Don’t understand truly where millennial’s heads are at which is the biggest irony
