Avantages
You'll learn how to operate under extreme pressure — if nothing else, you’ll come out stronger. Some teammates are incredibly talented and passionate despite the environment. Working with high-profile campaigns can look impressive on paper.
Inconvénients
The culture thrives on overwork and fear. You’re expected to be in-office 5 days a week, then continue working after hours from home. You are never allowed to work from home between 9-5, and i mean NEVER (you have to go on disability if you need to rest for 5 days after a surgery) but are EXPECTED to work from home between 5pm - 9am. Strategy and success are often driven by mid-level employees, but the credit and promotions go to under-qualified favorites who pose no threat to the hierarchy. And who torment the qualified ones underneath them to instill fear of losing their job. Innovation is not rewarded — in fact, if you're too competent, your work may be buried to keep upper leadership unchallenged. I created a campaign that single-handedly turned a failing tour around via a viral sound — it trended globally. Leadership barely acknowledged it. Promotions are political and keep ignorance at the top — whether for control, ego, or something darker, it’s clear critical thinking is not welcome in leadership. If you have a conscience, it’s going to get tested. Hard. There’s no real investment in employee development — just an expectation to sacrifice everything for "the brand." Mental health, boundaries, and basic human decency are foreign concepts here. If you are a woman, you will have an even harder ride, despite having a female CEO. Upper management on Digital believe women are best suited in administrative roles and will stand in the way of you pursing higher titles in other departments and not giving them internally. (Unless you use it as a bargaining tool, promote me or I leave)
