Pluspunten

Some really good brands to work on and talented people in various depts.

Minpunten

Upper creative management is clueless to what goes on and good people leave because there is no career path for growth unless you're a favorite. HR is just as bad as they have a double standard on complaints to protect upper management.

This is a tough one to read. It's a big priority for me that HR be a neutral and beneficial force for good for both our employees and the firm and "toxic" is not a word I ever want to hear associated with my team or management. While there are often many details and variables that go on in HR/management decisions that don't become public knowledge due to privacy and confidentiality reasons (there's always two sides to every story, right?), I hear you that there are some perceived concerns that need addressing. If you are open to sharing more details with me, please reach out at maria.okeeffe@edelman.com. Maria O'Keeffe, Executive Director, US HR

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.
