In what order would you place the most creative agencies in Austin?

You’ll probably get a lot of different opinions on this, depending on what kind of creative you’re looking for. But I’d bet most of them will be some version of “Preacher, Callen, everyone else.”

Not to say that there aren’t a ton of different interesting shops in town, but those two tend to make most of the headlines when it comes to conventional agency creative.

Preacher does a lot of awesome design work and they pride themselves on a swanky office and cool art gallery.

I’ve seen Callen do some fun, more activation/stunty work that’s pretty creative in my books. Also working with Craig would be a good experience I’d bet.

GSD&M is the big agency in town, definitely more traditional in a sense that they mostly do TV/video work but some accounts do some interesting interactive pieces too.

McGarrah Jessee used to be the design shop in town. Their work for Shiner and Yeti was some of the best, but they have been radio silent for the last four years or so aside from some decently funny spots for GameStop.

Would honestly only consider Callen. Depends on what kind of work you want to do, though.

Agree. Everything I’m learning about them and their work is interesting.

I'm reading this book on boundaries. In the work section it says I should tell my boss that I can't work after 5 PM. Knowing that advertising work commonly goes past 5 PM...would my job be in danger if I said that?
There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?
