All the agencies are awful right now.
Be sure to negotiate a good salary when you come in because you’ll never get a decent increase, even with promotion. They have a bonus structure that is a total scam. This is year 7 and I’ve never been paid out a full bonus. Apart from the awful comp, it’s fine. There is some bullying and back channeling/back stabbing that happens but that’s any large agency. The PTO is really good. 5 weeks for VP+.
It’s such a huge company that YMMV. I got hired in Jan and don’t have complaints, but it’s all about what team you’re on and whether they have a good culture.
I have never disliked a place more in my life. It’s toxic from every aspect and good people can not change the culture, there’s too much against you. The work was meh and kind of slow sometimes but the politics make it feel like you work 5x as much. Stay away, friend.
Like all agencies, the experience will be highly dependent on the specific office and team. Like any workplace, it has its ups and downs, but I’ve worked here for almost a decade and have mostly positive things to say.
Layoffs happening quietly across the board but not in masses like they did in August to avoid bad PR. No bonuses again. Avoid.
H O R R I B L E
Just trust E3
Avoid like the plague!! Toxic culture, low pay, no bonuses.
Not everyone here is HR. If that was the case, why would you still be here?
Don't listen to the haters. As a big organization has good and bad things. Same as WPP or IPG or any other
But we are more flexible than them
