*TIME SENSITIVE* Hi everyone! I recently received a job offer from Merkle (NYC based) for a Digital Media Planner role. However, I'm still in the interview process for quite a few other agencies/companies, a few of which could potentially be a better fit. I have until wed. 6/8 @ 1pm EST to give my final decision and I'm weighing my options. I'm looking for feedback/reviews about working at Merkle, both good AND bad - culture, WLB, advancement, salary negotiation receptivity, etc. TIA!!!
