It’s manager/team dependent. Tell your hiring manager during the interview that you’ve heard stories about poor work/life balance, and ask them how they and the team handle work/life balance. Their answer, or deflection, will tell you.

Question for paid search experts who have big agency experienc (e.g. big 4, dentsu, etc.) - is it considered standard to use SKAG instead of STAG, and use alpha/beta structures?...even with the changes Google has made to phrase and exact match? The various agencies I've worked at (small agencies) never use that method.

If you were interviewing someone from a small agency and they said they didn't use those types of account structures, would you think they were inexperienced?

What has your experience been with new job offers and counter offers from current employers?
