GAS role, which agency should I move forward with? Any particular accounts/ teams I should I avoid? McCann vs. Grey. vs. Wunderman Thompson vs. Omnicom. I have offers from almost all of them just wanted to gain insights on corp culture, wlb and comp.

Have worked at three of those. Of them liked mccann the most. Omnicom had best growth programs. Grey was most creative. Depends what you want. Account strongest at Omnicom or wunderman Thompson.

Thank you! I am looking for growth, wlb and exciting business in the pipeline so if ever need be I can move within the network/ agency itself. So far WT has the best package offer, it beats all of the rest by a high margin.

WT has a very generic corporate culture but generally good wlb and benefits. Account teams tend to be pretty strong. Not the hottest shop, but you won't get squeezed to death and it's still a pretty strong name to have on your resume.

Thank you this is helpful. I come from summer Friday’s and unlimited PTO days so am a bit hesitant to sign up for 10-15 days off days. But so far everyone has assured me that wlb does exist on this team. I’d be happy to DM you, perhaps you have a bit more insight on the actual team I’m considering signing the offer for.

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?

Dash this comment aside if it is fallible, but there is something here that has been overlooked. Competence is not regurgitation and memorization.
