Pros

If you are someone who enjoys change, Edelman can be a great place to work. The company has been through a lot of change over the past few years with new leadership in place. I believe these are all positive and necessary changes for Edelman to grow and last long term. New positions and opportunities have opened up that would have never surfaced if it weren't for the growth and change. The culture at Edelman provides for a nice work/life balance. Long hours and working through lunch are discouraged by the majority of supervisors and managers. The tone is set that work is not the most important thing in your life. Generous benefits like sabbaticals and full pay maternity leave further echo this message.

Cons

Could be a little more progressive with work flexibility options, especially for roles that are not client facing.

Pros

- Great team from department head down - Collaboration is encouraged - Self-starter culture with good room for side projects - "See something, say something" approach allows questioning methodology without a feeling of personal attacks or "dumb questions" and enables team members to support each other in a safe environment - Work from home

Cons

- Executive leadership does not know what they want - Consistent turnover in C-Suite leads to departments acting like small internal companies rather than part of a larger system - Limited permission access for team members means that any absence or time-off can lead to a backlog of deployments
