Pluspunten

- Some of the people you work with become good friends - Every Thursday there was wine/beer/snacks Literally the only 2 good things about this hot mess, which is why I'm giving it 2 stars below.

Minpunten

I can't believe this place has a 3 star rating. That's way too high. Where to even begin... - Looooooong hours. Super late nights, all the time. Frequent weekends. All to do something that has a 50/50 chance of completely changing the next day or just being dropped. - Speaking of those late nights and weekend work, they'll only let you know about it maybe a day in advance. Then you're expected to drop your life and bend to their will. - There's also virtually no compensation for working these extra days - for every 5 you might get 1 back. - If the client likes what you've done, the Creative Directors take credit. If the client doesn't like what you've done, you get thrown under the bus. - You only get proper pay/raises/promotions/good projects if the higher ups like you. Doesn't matter if you're just as talented or work hard, it's a popularity contest. - Instead of promoting within, they will hire people with less experience than you to work above you and get paid more than you. So much for company loyalty! - Again, when they do promote within, it's dependent on whether or not they like you personally. If they don't, be prepared to wait years for that promotion, if it ever comes. - The work gets stale, fast. It might seem cool at first but everything is just recycled. Very rare to get something totally original in print or TVC. - Poor management in general, for account and creative. - Poor work distribution - if you're a Junior, you'll work on the same projects as a Senior would, but you get paid half as much. You will also often get more work than they get, so you'll put in twice as many hours and

Pluspunten

cool projects, book could look nice when you leave depending on what you worked on.

Minpunten

horribly mismanaged. does not protect its creatives, abusive creative directors with huge egos that have been there far too long, repetitive uncreative work. no concept of work/life balance, working under ridiculous timelines.
