Pros

The client brands are strong, but AKQA in Australia often gets only small piecemeal projects for these clients with the really interesting projects worked on by other agencies.

Cons

There are so many negatives - toxic culture, very poor client management, uninspiring leaders and projects. Those with low ethics tend to climb the ladder. Naturally there is a very high staff turnover due to burnout, and the agency falling short of expectations.
