Are agencies are mandating people back in the office? How do think it would play out?

@Senior Medical Copywriter Which agency are you at?

No mandate. Folks come in during middle of the week sometimes. It’s not mandated, which means when folks do, it’s fun. I was in twice this week. Once because I had a client meeting that I had to be at. The next because I’d seen some folks and we wanted to see each other again. It was actually awesome.

This is honestly becoming very different per holding company

Omnicom and IPG Health both seem remote whereas Havas (lol) and VMLYR (WPP) are back to base camp

IPG Health is cutting down on real estate and vacating 4 office locations. All agencies will be consolidated into 4 locations, 3 in NYC and 1 in NJ. Given that step, seems safe to assume they’ve committed to long-term remote work

Does anybody else have clients that want to be “innovative” and “disruptive” but the second you share a really cool, insightful, big idea with them that’s on strategy they proceed to fumble like fools and just want to focus on basic block-and-tackle tactics and never actually do anything that’s innovative?

I’ve been dealing with this for years and I never understand why some clients sell themselves as disruptive when they’re scared to do anything daring or spend any money.
