I’m taking a few calls for new opps at a couple different firms and wanted to get a pulse on feelings from folks who actually work there to help me narrow it down. Agencies are: Weber Shandwick, Ruder Finn, FleishmanHillard and a smaller boutique called LifeSci Communications. From The sounds of other threads on here, I’m nervous about WS. Looking for a read on Work/Life balance, how well staffed they are, avg pay range (VP level), PTO/holidays/benefits, etc. So, how do you like working there?

Weber varies massively depending on office and even team/client. Overall not a bad place to be and the benefits are above average. Feel free to DM me to ask specific questions that are harder to ask/answer in a public forum (even if largely anonymous).

Thanks! Sent you a DM!

I agree with the other Weber responses. Completely entirely depends on your office / team.

Hi All,can you please let me give me some idea about the following things:

1. what kind of technologies are used in Data Engineering projects in ANZ? Do they work with open source frameworks like Pandas, Pyspark etc. Or everything is done using their internal tools?

2. And is there any opportunity of internal project switch after 12-15 months if I want to work in some different tech stack?

3. How is the work-life balance and job security for people working in India office?
