Pros

-Billion dollar clients and fun projects to work on - Looks good on resume - You can bond with your colleagues through everyone’s frequent tears and panic attacks

Cons

If I could give this company 0 stars, I would. They sell you dreams of changing the world with their high profile clients, but it’s all a lie. Aside from the fact that the office is severely understaffed (which is an understatement), management is disorganized and toxic. Love dealing with Trump supporters, folks who take no accountability, no work life balance and a heap full of manipulation? Then hop on board the Golin train, folks... choo choo! It’s an express train to hell. Senior leadership is very hit or miss. The new additions have tried their best, but it’s difficult to govern an environment that is already too far gone. If you’re part or the BIPOC community or any marginalized community for that matter ... don’t even bother working here. Save yourself. You’ll be tokenized and undermined on a daily basis, confused with other people who are the same race as you, and be spoken to like a child ... these are just a few of the many reasons why folks or color all leave one after the other. HR is a joke, much like this company. Save yourself and work somewhere else. It’s not worth the pay. AT ALL!
