How is the Strategy& Financial Services practice, particularly banking? They seem to need a lot of people. Is there bad culture? Poor wlb? Uninteresting work? Or is there truly investment in growth beyond client needs?

I believe the reputation of the group is particularly bad in terms of culture and WLB. I am sure because of that there is a higher rate of turnover. Source: I have MBA friends in the group

So, you’ve reached the stage of your career where you care more about cashing a fat paycheck than making “creative ads”. You’d rather have the resources and free time to fulfill your creative itch outside of work than try to sell the next big idea to an 28 year old marketing manager with an annual budget of 150k. How do you make the absolute most money as a copywriter while still working a 9-5? Asking for... a... friend?
