I feel like Jung von Matt is hottest right now.

like

Jung von Matt for sure. They've been agency of the year last year in Cannes before wieden and d5. Incredibly strong creative culture but depends a bit on which office you're in.

like

My top 3 creative shops in Germany:
1. Jung von Matt, Hamburg (with all 3 branches: Saga, Next Alster, Sports)
2. Heimat, Berlin
3. Grabarz & Partner, Hamburg
Also worth checking out, in no particular order:
Kolle Rebbe (Hamburg)
elbgold (Hamburg)
Antoni (Berlin)
La Red (Hamburg/Berlin)
DDB (heard it’s not a good work place, though)

Any inputs from other locals? Might learn something as well!

like

Agree on JvM and Grabarz. But everyone has left or is leaving Heimat, clients included. Apart from the occasional Hornbach campaign there‘s not much happening there. DDB has gone through a huge turnover and needs to rebuild things. They were able to keep the VW account, but their first football sponsorship job was 😱

Just think of it as the German version of WK.

I‘ve heard that Anomaly is doing amazing work in Berlin for really cool clients

It’s a good option if you don‘t mind giving up all of your weekends.

However, there is little to no learning and its very slow, the project is just starting and the client itself is not clear what they want. Do you think I should switch just because its a big 4. Please help me decide. Yoe -3.5

Hi everyone!

After years of hard work, I just got my first position in a leadership role! Yay! I’ll be leading a team of 12.
I wanted to know if you had any tips for me, things you wish you knew before, or things previous leaders did for/to you that you found admirable or stayed with you. I want to make sure I’m there for them and want to be a leader they will remember positively.

Thank you so much!!

Is 7 weeks too early to start thinking I may have made a huge mistake in switching to my current gig? I left the last place because it was overr toxic and terrible W/L balance, for one that seemed to be more “fun” and more realistic hours, only to find that I’ve now been working 12 -14 hours a day and just drowning and feeling like I cannot catch up or catch my breath. Everyone is in the same boat here which is why I’m so overwhelmed so quickly with no support. Is this an immediate red flag?
