Pluspunten
Big name on paper, a window of opportunity to work with large clients. With many talented & seasoned people, resources are made available for projects. Some but rare: Leaders will stand up for the team & motivate employees in meaningful ways, but often their hands are tied too.
Minpunten
NO career progression & NO performance reviews. You will be surprised to see a big name runs the company in such a sketchy system. Basically, a big local sweatshop, not open/honest about its plans and operations. Not a “people culture” place, management is distant from what's happening on the ground, yet HODs have no say about critical decisions regarding their own team. 'Because I Said So' management practices, you are seen as the problematic one when you voice up. Eventually, people give up voicing out. Backward advertising practices and refusing to think forward, everything is still about impressing the client with a “big idea”, not competitive when smaller “digital/social” agencies springing up everywhere. Creatives are overworked because bosses tend to oversell with empty promises and sales talk. Eventually, that became a norm across the account team too.
