Pros

- Amazing work / talented designers, strategists, etc. - Good perks when I worked there. Free shift drink at a company restaurant and discounts. Frequent sponsored happy hours. - Laid back atmosphere - (Mostly) nice and helpful colleagues

Cons

- Financially mismanaged. Vendors upset. Bills unpaid. Trouble with the government / taxes. - Operationally mismanaged. Not sure how they've become so successful when they clearly don't know how to run a business properly. - Management mismanaged. Supervisors don't know how to properly lead, give feedback, or give you direction related to your own job / career, etc. - Barely any room to grow - Partners come up with crazy ideas and pet projects, get distracted by them and don't focus on running the company as a whole

Pros

There is the chance to work on a really awesome range of projects with really cool details. It's a great portfolio and resume builder!

Cons

Poor work life balance, there is the expectation that employees will work long hours and on weekends. There is a lot of favoritism, politics, and disorganization in this company. Senior managers will intentionally not include certain team members at their own discretion. There are not good opportunities for career advancement within the company. There is close to a 30% turnover rate within the NYC office.

Pros

Restaurant Perks. Free Snacks. Occasional Office Parties (Alcohol mainly). Once per year all expense paid vacation of office choosing. 401K. Health/Dental Insurance. One free paid personal day (must be used on or after birthday per year or lose it). Music On Everyday. Half Days Prior To Holiday.

Cons

Sick/Paid Time Off are combined as one and will not be tallied separately. Getting reimbursed for expenses at sloooooow rate. WORK Before Life Balance! No Salary Increases. Just Bonuses. Occasional Employees/Contractors Leaving Over The Course of The Month. Financials Are Questionable. Working In Nice Office But In Runned-Down Buildings. Over Doing Your Job Description. Few Holidays Celebrated. Expect to be paid a month or more later. Disgraceful upper level management.
