Any insight on Evoke? They are aggressively recruiting me and I don’t know much about them.

The truth? Unless you’re well known, any agency aggressively recruiting you is most likely a sh*tshow in one form of another. If you need the job, try to get as much $$$ as you can and take the job. Just be prepared to get laid off 3 - 6 months later

Yeah. Ditto BGB group

Strong remote culture.

I worked at Evoke for years. Lots of good people (esp SF office). But don't expect to last too long. They had 5+ rounds of layoffs across the entire Evoke group over the last 2.5 yrs. Maybe 300 let go so far. Last round over the holidays.

There's still good some very Creative there, so maybe take the gig to practice your pitch game. They've been trying to rebuild the client base since they lost the ~20MM BMS CAR-T portfolio 11/23.

Yeah and that’s weird. She said they don’t have an office here even. Makes it feel like it’s fake.

I know some of the creative and account leads there and they’re really good people. I can’t speak to the culture and I know they are really busy due to a big client, so I’m sure it’s stressful. But like I said - I know some really talented, smart and non a**holes who work there.

There are some good/nice people but not enough client work to keep it afloat right now, at least for some departments

Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?
