Something similar happened to me. There are 2 ways to look at it (and it’s different at different points of your career, obviously).
The first is they are sticking you in a place to fill a need. Their thinking is if you don’t like it, you’ll just leave.
The other is that they are putting you somewhere to make a problem go away because they trust you and know you’re good.
Obviously the 2nd is healthier professionally (mentally as well) but you still have to assess if there’s a future for you at the agency and/or if you’ll get anything for your book.
It’s nice to be liked but you’ve still got to keep one eye on the next gig.
Wherever the “good creatives” are is where you want to be
If you work hard and keep your eyes open then I doesn’t matter where you sit. Opportunity will find you.
