Yes. We need as many C titles as possible at every agency. I’m so glad Chief Production Office is finally gaining traction as a title.

I mean, what do the other 98% really do anyway? Get the actual work done?

I mean there are only a few places where we might need even one

Of course because having that $1.2MM in salaries on the books makes it super easy to stay under the holding companies assigned staff cost ratio...

Depends how much work there is to oversee I guess. Having one CCO who’s too busy to know and manage the work isn’t helpful.

Sean and Tom at McCann are great. Having two keeps it a little more sane.

I00% agree, Tom and Sean are great - I worked for them for a while. But I do think there’s a tone deaf and lack of necessity to an announcement of another two white guys being co-CCOs of an agency that has very little demand for non-health based work. But I’m not a co-CCO so what do I know 🤷🏻‍♂️

Two heads are better than one. It’s good to have a creative equal to keep you in check, at any level.

No.

I spent 2 years as an SE at my current company and was offered a job at the same company to lead our tech partnerships. I was pumped about the role and increased my OTE by 20%.

After 4 months, the culture of this team is entirely different than sales. My manager micromanages me, is out of touch, and threatened me for having passion projects outside of work.

Do I stick it out and deal with the anxiety, move on from the company I love, or take an AE job that is on the table and blow it up?
