It is great to hear that you are enjoying working with your peers as well as being challenged by the breadth of opportunities around you. We understand that we are a busy agency and that there are occasions where people may feel more stretched than others. We are always looking ahead to see how we can staff accordingly to support the teams. If you are working longers hours on a consistent basis then I urge you to speak to your line manager or please come and speak to someone in HR. In terms of compensation, we take great pains to regularly benchmark our salaries against competitors and the wider industry. We therefore feel that we are highly competitive in the market place including the great benefits we offer such as industry leading paid holiday and the well being initiatives we are continuously evolving to support our people.

Pros

I worked with some of the brightest and best people in the business. Most of them are no longer with the company. Some good clients, and nice office space.

Cons

Very limited opportunities for growth. During my time they reduced promotions to only once a year, and made many excuses for promoting as few people as possible (despite becoming the first "$1B" agency at that time). Morale was extremely low. People were forced to come into an office with nobody they actually worked with. Common to be passed from manager to manager. At one point I had 6+ managers within a 10-month span.
