Vantaggi

The relatively new office for Edelman Seattle (November 2014) offers spectacular views of the city while you regularly work 60+ hour weeks. The location of the office is conveniently downtown near numerous modes of public transport. There are smart, talented people, but that depends solely on your team. Edelman does have a great internal education program and health benefits.

Svantaggi

The pay must increase to keep up with the increasing cost of living in the City of Seattle, particularly for junior staff. It is disappointing how many hours people would work for little compensation. At the very least offer a bus pass discount, as a majority of Seattle employees commute to work by bus. The work culture is uptight and stuffy to the point where I consistently felt like I was walking on eggshells. Teams, particularly on technology accounts, were cliquey and I was subjected to unprofessional behavior because of my junior position. Favoritism was rampant, particularly among mid and senior-level staff. Teams were weirdly staffed and senior management paid attention to only the larger, more prestigious accounts. Simply put, working here will drain you both mentally and physically.

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.
