I work on the ad tech/publisher side working in a regional office. The HQ is in NYC and full of amazing people. The regional office I work in does not have amazing people & the leadership is awful. I really love the company but working in the regional office is becoming unbearable. I can’t transfer offices, what would you do?

Saatchi & Saatchi (Publicis) I presume?

Went through a similar experience at the aforementioned and found success embracing a “go big or go home” approach. We found had fun/smaller clients who took more risk then those NYC office managed. It eventually helped us steal some of their clients who were tired of vanilla work.

If you can still exercise your muscles at current shop, I’d say keep forging ahead. If there’s atrophy, move along. Good luck!
