Feels like it needs a proper creative force to take the helm.

Hermeti and Ana we’re some of my favourite ECDs ever when I worked at a Mother but the structure was basically designed around them. I wonder if W+K just isn’t setup the same way? Such a shame that it’s not clicking.

I wonder if it’s more of a market / business problem than a creative one… but then, Mother has done great work across the same markets, ever since Felix has lead the office really…

Campaign just gave it 6/10 which was the same score as last year. It acknowledges that there isn’t really a good creative output. It’s such a shame. It used to be amazing.

Have interviewed a couple of people from WK over the past few weeks and have been hearing a lot about how it’s becoming a pretty horrible place to work since Susan came onboard. The criticism was more around actually working there than the work itself but is it really that bad? One of the candidates was saying that many of the good creatives have been leaving or are planning to leave because of this. I haven’t ever worked for Susan so I have no clue. Anyone heard anything similar?
