You are so wrong, Copywriter 1. I mean, we did lose Ragu and I’m not mad about it, but those accounts are all staffed out of Annex.

Good people and growing brand. Mostly non-traditional work (think social, Internet, activations, etc.) Offices in Chicago, Atlanta (Bookstore) and LA (Battery). Pretty big clients that allow agencies to be creative like Coke, Camel, Epic Games, Netflix, etc.

You’re welcome! And yes. Usually the bigger the agency, the more red tape and politics.

The first Annex was created as social shop for a few clients. It’s grown to kind of be the hip and scrappy place for a lot of social and activations. They do some fun work, but it doesn’t seem like a traditional environment.

The Chicago and Atlanta Annex agencies are social shops that do some very small but great work and actually have surprisingly healthy cultures. Mostly soft drinks and tobacco but they’ve had some pretty great work. We have a reputation since the Peterson days but the people in those two offices are some of the brightest and most creative I’ve ever worked with. No idea about Annex88.... Battery Annex is also killing it.

As much as Havas 1 tries to paint a rosy picture, I’ll answer your question with a question. Can you name a single piece of work that Havas Annex has ever done? From any office? Ever?

Hope you both have a great day!

Does this include Annex88? I was there pre-COVID

Annex 88 is a social sweatshop without the agency sweatshop opportunities.
