Vantaggi
-Good pay. Hired at just over 100K as a manager with 3 years of experience. Maybe because they planned for me to do 3 roles combined into one. -Nice team and ADs/Director, but this can very account by account. -Lots of exposure to clients and other media brands which can help put WPP into context.
Svantaggi
-Refused to add support to our understaffed team: When I joined my team, I took the responsibilities of 3 members who recently left. Despite begging for help and an associate to split the load with for the duration of my time at MS, I never received one. Now that I have put in my two week notice, they are pulling 3 onshore people and 2 offshore people to take over my responsibilities... -"Leadership" are mystical overlords you will never meet unless you are at the AD level or above. If you have complaints you better hope your director mentions them otherwise leadership will never hear them. -High turnover: I had 2 directors within 3 months, and one get laid off in the span of two years. -Reliance on cheap foreign labor: More and more pushing for using the GDS team. I was a "manager" with no on shore associates. All of the people I "managed" were on a 9 hour time difference and had bosses of their own.
