It's great!!! You're getting into a well respected, culture defining industry, where you're limited only by your imagination and desire to succeed. Getting into advertising was the best decision I ever made, and the satisfaction and self-worth I derive from it eclipses anything I could've imagined!
You're an intern. Telling you the truth is about as cruel as kicking a puppy.
Social media does tend to bring out the complainers more than the celebrators. But we do have a fair amount of people here who for some reason like or even love this industry. Most often you’ll find them starting threads about why everyone else is complaining. 😉
That said, this is by no means a perfect industry and there are plenty of legitimate reasons for dissatisfaction.
I feel like with the skill set i have, advertising is the industry that makes the most sense, but I’m always planning an escape route in the back of my mind

You think we have It bad? Sit in a room with accountants or finance people. You may put a spike through your ear before they get to how miserable they are, though...
I love it
