Vantaggi
-Training is much more robust and taken more seriously than at any other agency -Work-life balance (it is what you make it - I've found mine and so have several of my other colleagues) -Many or most teams work cross-practice -Everyone knows Edelman... if you've worked here for any length of time, people seem to take you a bit more seriously as a PR professional -LEADERSHIP - we have exceptional leadership in our office; he's very accessible and focused on making things better for his teams -Edelman NEXT - allows you to carve your own path and how you want to progress within the agency, even if you want to change directions or locations -Working at Edelman Atlanta comes with all the benefits of being at a world-class (arguably the best) PR agency - smart people, our colleagues set precedents and trends all the time and our clients are some that people dream for years of working with -Pretty lax "business casual" dress code, yet we can wear jeans every day
Svantaggi
-Office location and surroundings downtown -Parking (we pay if we're below VP and the deck is NOT very safe) -Non-competitive salary (even after it's been increased, it's still below several other agencies - big and small) -Comp time policy for working outside of workday schedule (but to be fair, that's an agency-wide issue)
