Pros

- Great for employees starting out in their PR career and for those who have newly graduated. - Nice benefits including pension, team lunches, WFH options, birthday leave, and office snacks. - Some genuinely lovely people exist among the junior staff, who make coming into the office such a joy.

Cons

- Wachsman management is a group of toxic, self-aggrandizing nepotists. If they don't like you, say goodbye to your chances of progression — no matter how much feedback you action or how many hours you put in. They refuse to accept constructive criticism from juniors and the wider office because they delusionally believe they are the best thing on planet earth, and absolutely everything they touch turns to gold. - Pay is mediocre once you get to a mid-to-senior level position. Only the CEO's favourites get paid well. Everyone else can settle for crumbs.
