Pros
Healthiest internal culture among coworkers and peers I’ve experienced at an advertising agency. The people on the frontline are genuinely friendly, supportive, collaborative, and very talented.
Cons
- The agency was previously independent and is now part of a larger network, which has shifted priorities and ways of working. (We know what happens next)
- Leadership prioritize financial performance and efficiency over employees and creative ambition, which impact morale and the quality of work negatively.
- Ongoing/never ending periods of organizational change and restructuring have created instability and high turnover.
- The advertising industry is dying, and this agency is in a particularly challenging position to navigate that environment and come out on top.
