Vantaggi

The people you get the opportunity to work with are phenomenal. They are talented, smart, ambitious and wonderful - you also get the opportunity to work with amazing clients and on some really awesome projects.

Svantaggi

You have to have a good manager and a manager that is an advocate for you, or else you will completely fail here. Much of the senior leadership loves to hear themselves talk, without much listening and consideration from the mid level staff. Even though this is an agency, you will ALWAYS work long hours, with no breaks, even on holidays as clients will never be pushed back on for unrealistic asks/many managers do not care if their direct reporters are overburdened by work. The environment is also not very understanding of any flaws that happen in the day to day being human, leaving an unrealistic expectation of perfection that impossible to achieve.

Risposta di Edelman
8y
I loved reading your positive perceptions of Edelman-your colleagues, the clients and the awesome projects. The observations you mention in your cons are disappointing to hear. We want our employees to find the right balance, however they define that for themselves, and we try to offer many programs to address these issues. Long hours can absolutely happen, dependent on the client issue, but days like that should be the exception and not the norm. If you'd be open to sharing more, I hope you'll reach out at maria.okeeffe@edelman.com. Thank you. Maria O'Keeffe, Executive Director, US HR

Vantaggi

Edelman gives you real exposure to senior leaders, complex work, and smart people. You can learn a lot quickly, build strong relationships, and get close to how decisions are made. There are also good opportunities to take on meaningful projects if you are proactive and willing to speak up.

Svantaggi

The pace can be a lot, and the work can feel reactive at times. Priorities shift quickly and roles often expand beyond the original scope without always having clear boundaries, title growth, or compensation changes. Career growth is possible, but you often have to advocate for it yourself. Overall, Edelman can be a great place to grow if you are adaptable, organized, and comfortable with ambiguity. It works best when you have strong leaders, clear expectations, and support around workload and growth. That last part is impossible to control, so may the odds be in your favor.
