Pros

Good clients and interesting sports and entertainment activations

Cons

Poor leadership in the consulting division. As others have mentioned here, Vice Presidents only care about themselves and their salaries while they should be focused on actually building and motivating a team. At least 50% of the Directors have left in the past year because of poor leadership from Vice Presidents. The salaries are way below market rate. Many of the team leaders really have no clue what teamwork is about and do very little except delegate an inordinate amount of work on others. There is no consistency across teams so your experience is largely dictated by the account you're on and the leadership you're under. Read the other posts about the poor leadership as this is very true - most of the VPs only care about advancing their careers and don't have a clue how to build a team. Some accounts are led better than others but there seems to be this pervasive and arrogant mentality that any issues on a team are because of the managers and directors without looking at the Vice Presidents. To really address the issues, senior leadership would have to look at itself and based on my experience that will never happen. Leadership would rather blame others than themselves. The change has to begin at the senior level because there is gross incompetence, no team unity, poor direction and absent leadership.

At the time, many teams were spread out across the country or worked from home, so it was hard to get immediate work done
