Pluspunten

- Ability to add big-name clients to your resume

Minpunten

- Extremely low wages and poor work life balance (make-up PTO policies reduced more and more every month) - The senior leadership (specifically the Senior Director of the Digital department) will not promote foreigners, especially not foreign women (saying that we "have the best work-life balance" so we're not eligible for promotions). - The new Editor in Chief of the Editorial team is not only extremely abusive and makes xenophobic comments (our team had 120% turnover in 6 months) but also a terrible writer. - The office is understaffed due to poor working conditions and incompetent, abusive leadership. - In a global Edelman internal survey, our office received around a 4.3/10 while the average was around a 7.2/10. When going over survey results, senior leadership then yelled at us and made fun of us for complaining about a hostile work environment. She also scolded us for claiming that there was discrimination, yelling at us and denying it existed at Edelman Korea. - This job destroyed my physical and mental health, and it caused my coworker to have a very public mental breakdown atter only working there for a few months. Overall, Edelman Korea is by far the worst Edelman office in the world - with the highest turnover rate in the world to prove it. I strongly, strongly caution anyone against joining.

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.
