Pluspunten

- The clients speak for themselves and the resume add - you have a lot of resources at your hands

Minpunten

- barriers to entry are high; I think of this place like an Ivy League - inaccessible and selective for the wrong reasons (ex. the referral model) - people who have been here “for life” tend to perpetuate the negative culture Edelman is known for - like lots of firms pay is low and hours are high; you’re expected to work at full capacity and if you don’t, people act like you’re not being productive - It’s a client over everything model - there’s a lot of senior staff this is preachy about taking breaks and time off while junior staff isn’t being paid a livable wage Edelman is like an exclusive club you want to get into and then you get in an realize it’s filled with nepotism and skating by on mediocrity

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.
