I liked the Weber NY office, I ended my tenure there about 5 years ago but it was pretty legit back then. Definitely better than Edelman!

I liked working at Weber, that was about 3 years ago and at a different office. However I do know a lot of the folks in the NY hq office and all around seemed like a good place to work.

i’m capable of both, thanks. yes, some of the biggest issues at weber personally for me is because of a certain poc, but it’s an exception. i can complain & still engage leadership about the ongoing need for diversity & the lack of support the agency gives to poc.

welcome to my ted talk!

I’ve heard good things from forms who work there. They love the culture, approachable senior leadership and working on big clients.

Oddly, enough I hear the opposite and I’m under a holding company, too. People I talk to admire what Andy, Gail and Judith have created at Weber. If you’re experience is that bad, I’d change who you’re surrounding yourself with in the agency.

It’s fine. They do well in awards season, generally have great c-suite executive leadership and the work life balance is fine. That said, all the digital work was very basic-level and I got tired of working with brands who lacked general ethics.

it’s very basic influencer work. we share & use the same influencers over & over & over again. & i feel like the digital team works a lot of pharma which is a big no no industry. they used to work on the u.s. army account when it was ours too. smh!

some teams are great, some teams are rigid. stay away from any AB team if you want a life!! direct managers are a hit or a miss.

Hi all,

Do firms match offers from other Big 4s for campus hires? I’ve received a campus offer from both
KPMG and EY. I’m more interested in the EY offer, but they are paying 3k less than KPMG.

Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.

Thanks!

Hello all, for those working in an agency. I wanted to see what your typical client workload is? I’ve been in my role for about a year but the workload has changed dramatically without hiring help.

Can you please share:

- how many active pitches you send per month for those clients on average

Thanks all!
