Anyone have any insight to the culture at Crispin? I’ve heard rumors about long hours and no work life balance... is that still the case? Is there autonomy/trust or do they always keep tabs on you?

My experience there was positive. Long hours and w/l balance depends on the individual. I was always able to leave at the end of the day bc I try to make sure the work was on brief and creative I want to make. The only late nights were bc I chose to stay to make it better in some way. That was my choice though. I’ve seen some unrealistic deadlines there, but if you communicate with your team, like account and whoever’s above you, cpb has some of the best AE process and training in the industry. That meant unrealistic stuff usually got figured out quickly. If you’re quiet whenever you need clarity or time, any place can be a grind.

Definitely not still not still the case. People still work hard, but you can have a life too.

I think they wrote “not still” twice, so remove one and it makes more sense :)

I don’t mind the grind. And I don’t mind long hours, as long as they are balanced by occasional days that I can work from home and no one is counting tabs on where I am... I realize that is different for producers and Creatives

Have you had to change your start date after accepting an offer and how did it go? I told them I need to give 30 day notice and so I set my start date (incorrectly) assuming the background check and drug screen would take a few days to clear. However, the drug screen is now taking over a week and a half (still not finished, maybe tomorrow). Apparently things are much slower due to staffing issues and labs are backed up. It’s cutting into my 30 day notice significantly. Thoughts?
