Pros

Exposure to a lot of brands and work, may have opportunities to do things not appropriate for you level but great in terms of experience. People are relatively nice and easy to work with.

Cons

A lot of nepotism and senior management are only senior because they have been there longer. Most people with credible skills actually decide to move on leaving the workforce full of "comfortable" people who will do the minimum and shift work to others

Pros

Hard working associates, mostly bright (and admirable) heads of department. Good benefits. Previous CEO seemed like a genuinely nice guy and would listen to you if you approached him about something.

Cons

There’s a lot of reasons why top notch talent has long jumped ship. Great at sounding smart…terrible at actually getting the revenue to avoid the wholesale data asset sell offs going on. Terribly overcomplicated product portfolios with inflexible solutions at higher costs than smaller leading agencies that have outpaced them. Department heads gaslighting everyone under VPs about performance when they aren’t winning the internal Hunger Games and are told to reduce headcount.
