Pros

I'm an assistant account executive. There are very few pros to working here. I'm overworked (60-70 hours a week). The managers and teams are horrible (probably the most unfriendly staff I've ever met). They are highly demanding and if you don't know how to do anything they are quick to fire. I've seen 2 people let go since I've been here.

Cons

SO MANY CONS. When I joined they said I could be promoted within a year. Completed BS. It really takes 2-3 years to get promoted and only if you grind really hard. They don't really teach you much and expect you to "just figure it out". I'm so angry I chose this place to work. So many of my friends are on account exec tracks at other places and have great work/life balances, get paid more and enjoy their teams. Also the work I do is so random - sometimes clients ask me to run data analysis work too which I don't know how to do. In general stay away from this place. I'm probably going to leave very soon. I know they might be hiring cause there is so much turnover here.
