Vantaggi
I have worked at Edelman for more than five years and it's upsetting to see so many people on here bashing the company and saying that anyone who might write something positive is lying-I hope more people who have positive things get on here and write about their experiences. I have a manager who leads me and encourages me to share ideas or challenge the current way of doing things. I work in an office where there is a lot of good happening and I know I'm not alone. It's easy to get on here anonymously and bash and be critical-if you hate it so much LEAVE! YOU ARE THE PROBLEM. I appreciate working for a company that gives me generous time off, has a number of different employee welfare and culture benefits, pays me fairly and gives me the runway to grow. I also think as a company what we have done around supporting the people needing help in Houston as well as our response after Charlottesville is important and reflects my personal values and makes me proud to work at Edelman.
Svantaggi
I think that we don't do a good job of showing our best work-as some reviewers have said it's "just a PR shop"-also PR isn't a bad word it's our heritage! There are over 600 creative people who work at Edelman globally and there is a lot of great work happening but if we aren't seeing it internally and able to talk about it then how is the outside world going to know. I do think our most senior leaders need to be more visible and have open dialogue with employees about things they have been challenged on in employee surveys or some of the things that some people have chosen to spray all over Glassdoor instead of trying to work with their leadership teams and HR.
