Pros

The designers on staff are amazing, great people Clients were cool

Cons

Where to start? They literally try to control your entire life: no freelance policy on top of bad pay and less-than-inflation raises, bad PTO policy, non-existant sick leave, below average perks, and constantly cutting and combating the ones people do like (they cut our conference stipend, for example). The culture is toxic, mostly from the top/middle-management down. It's micromanagement, creative steamrolling ("just do what i say"), constant comparison to other designers on the team, unrealistic timeline/work output expectations are the norm and make you feel like you're underperforming or not doing enough or just bad at your job. They'll steal your ideas and sell them on their store, and take credit for them in magazines/on social, anywhere else they can. They refuse to let you post work on your website or socials unless they've posted it first (but sometimes they never get around to posting it.) If they have retreats, gifts, events that celebrate the staff they are extremely low-budget in the name of being quaint/twee/funny, despite owners being extremely wealthy. I could go on.. do not recommend.

An intense, but very worthwhile experience

Pros

- Amazing co-workers who really support none another - Compensation is solid by agency standards - The client list is top-tier and hard to beat - Interview process was fun and very stress-free

Cons

- The workload can make work-life balance tough to achieve; if you have children or otherwise lots of things pulling you from work, this can be difficult - It can sometimes be a stressful, emotional workplace (which truthfully isn't always a bad thing—conflicts are often worn on the sleeve and dealt with quickly, but not the best for mental health)

Great for networking, questionable otherwise

Pros

- Truly an amazing opportunity for networking. Some extremely talented individuals work here. - An interesting/diverse client base and internal initiatives. You will not be bored by the work. - Great opportunity for learning. High expectations in a fast-paced environment will force you to grow your skill set and improve your efficiency.

Cons

- Poor work/life balance. Working over 40 hours a week and being on-call for "emergencies" is an expectation. - Sub-par benefits and salaries for the industry. - Hires are typically either young or green to the industry. This creates an environment where employees are not comfortable advocating for themselves and are taken advantage of. - Limited opportunities for upward mobility. - Lack of trust between partners and employees. - No QA team.
