Pluspunten
Great client roster. Edelman works with a number of really interesting companies (though the work itself is not always very interesting).
Minpunten
Overall, did not find most employees to be intelligent or capable of critical thinking. There are very few new ideas -- we used to joke internally that we would just change the cover of a proposal without bringing in new ideas or fresh thinking. By the time I left, I was shocked that the agency managed to hang onto clients at all, so my best guess is that the bar is just lower in PR & comms. The place also has serious culture and values issues. I think the only reason it does so well on Glassdoor is that the company has a "Glassdoor strategy" and actually sells this as a service to clients, too. Totally fake.
