Working at an Ad Agency
Research Group Head (Former Employee), NY – December 28, 2012
Pros: work with the coolest most creative people!
Cons: must always be pitching new business
When I worked at the agencies we still had market research departments. Today these people are called Account Planners and indeed, their skill set is far greater than what we were required to do. In the 80's the researchers were the non-profit department - Account Planners today practically run the Agency. Very different!

Pros: excellent people, environment.

I worked in the Corporate Gym section and truthfully it was great. The only reason I couldn't keep on working there was due to my sister getting sick. I had to take care of my sister until she die.

Advertising Agency , eclectic atmosphere , global company
Financial Analyst (Former Employee), New York, NY – July 18, 2012
Pros: monthly town hall meetings and lunches
Had six clients that I handled in terms of invoice coding, billing, and month end reports generated to distribute to Acct Execs. Learned that each client had specific requirements when it came to billing and payment. Mgt worked alongside the co workers to ensure that the day to day procedures were carried out and in a timely manner. Co workers were – more... pleasant and were always willing to help out in time crunching situations. The hardest part of the job was completing the deadlines prior to billing, the most enjoyable part of the job was meeting those deadlines and satisfying the client. – less

Beer on tap, ping pong, video games and darts, pretty much a boys club.
Art Director (Former Employee), NY – March 1, 2012
Pros: free cereal
Cons: late nights
Your kind of shop if you like all of the above. To move up the ladder you have to be in the CCO inner circle ie he must hire and like you. Lots of pitches, long hours but you can drown them all in some light beer I guarantee it.
