Lol I work with them and at least my POCs r terribly disorganized, rarely join status calls with the client, say they'll follow up but never do, etc. But I'm sure / I hope it's just the WM Team I have the 'pleasure' of working with...

Pretty sure that wavemaker, and other companies like it, will be obsolete in five years. Same with enormous creative agencies. Businesses like that aren’t evolving as fast as the industry is, just saying!

Wavemaker is okay for planning, but the media teams are absolute garbage. A couple of years ago they had this weird upswing where they won a handful of business and they seemed promising. It just seems like over the past year or so, the paid media teams have been bleeding all of their good people. But as I said, the strategy teams are good.

Hi folks,
Quite new to this. I’ll be moving to Dubai in a month and I got to know that my education documents need to be attested before the company can apply for visa. I’ve been trying to get hold of this as information is not consistent. Do I need to have MOFA Attestation in addition to the UAE Embassy Attestation from home country or will that be managed by the company in UAE itself?
