Berlin is better than Spain, just look at the volume of good work coming from there but, specially, the relevance of the work.

Lola is the best bet for a junior by far, I agree.
Leo Burnett is not good though, besides the lotto work from previous years, super boring stuff. Traditionally some strong shops are McCann, Contrapunto and DDB in Barcelona. The latest 2 are not doing as much good stuff as they used to. Other shops are irrelevant: Havas, Saatchi, Grey, Publicis, Y&R...nothing there. Small shops are doing better art direction and film: &Rosás, Oriol Villar, etc.

Y&R Madrid - mostly prints and radio (=ghost work for awards), I’d say avoid.
Leo Burnett Madrid - always decent real work, good network experience.
Lola MullenLowe Madrid - really cool work every year, but toxic culture.

For a junior — Lola is the best bet, they’ll treat you like shit but you’ll build a great book.
Alternatively, if you are into nice people and healthy culture — try to get into Leo Burnett. But it might be a lot slower compared to Lola.

MRM//McCann has just won a Grand Prix (in Entertainment) - but I’d give it a couple of years, I haven’t seen anything interesting from them before, maybe it was just a coincidence.

Compared to where? Very few jobs, very small salaries, all good work comes from just two or three agencies. Better than Berlin, worse than Paris.

Hey CD1 can you let me know which are does 2-3 agencies? I’m also interested in knowing more!

CD2, agree, valid points.
