Any thoughts on Allison+Partners in NYC? Have seen good award winning work for big brands, but see lack of work/life balance on Glassdoor. Looking at Director role- good? Bad?

Glassdoor is so shitty. It’s mostly for the land of the misfit toys-types. Only the miserable people make posts to cover their asses for their (usually misdirected) unhappiness. Happy people don’t take the time to post. Go with what you learned in the interview process

Here’s the thing... there really isn’t any agency that has good work/life balance if good = 9-5. That isn’t a realistic expectation in this business. The real question is: how are people rewarded and acknowledged for the lack of work/life balance, and who is the team you’ll be working with? I don’t at all think Glassdoor is the island of misfit toys and in fact can be helpful in identifying trends sometimes but it should only be used as one of the variables, not a driver
