David&Goliath Does anyone know of the vibes at other agencies in LA?
I used to work at Deutsch and that place was terrible since they overworked us to death.
I just heard from someone who said to avoid David&Goliath at all costs, too and that their CCO is a creep. Can’t say for sure if this is true or not but I heard others say that place is toxic and leadership sucks. Any advice or options?

Gut, Special, MAL feel like the few worth your (my) time in LA. Some other much smaller shops are doing interesting stuff too.

Will say my opinions are less about vibes, and more about the work.

Haven’t heard a single person say a good thing

I heard the same about D&G too from multiple people. All kinds from mid-level, senior and executive levels in account, creative, strategy, etc. to avoid it like the plague.

I think all the other agencies are cool tho. Ofc everyone have their own level of crazy but I heard that D&G AND PITCH! Are the places to avoid. Like only work there when you are DESPERATE.
