This quote from Nancy Reyes is insane. Equally insane that it was shared and championed by another omnicom exec. YOU’RE the ones who are killing advertising. YOU’RE why it’s not fun anymore. YOU justify every merger with a new definition of what advertising is, how the industry is changing, and what we need to do to keep up. YOU’RE downsizing us to death and that’s nothing to be proud of.

It’s funny when a company asks for 15 years of experience. But won’t hire anyone over 40.

Leo Burnett is hiring for a Junior Strategist. They want “1–3 years of experience in digital, brand or media strategy.”

Is this standard today?
