I love this city, but Mischief to Havas sounds like a huge downgrade.
This would not be a step down. It would be more like jumping off a cliff.
Chicago is great, but Havas here has been described as creatives who think they are HypeBeast but only work on Cracker Barrel.
Stay with Mischief.

That’s 5 years ago. The hypebeasts are gone, as is cracker barrel.
Why do you want to leave Mischief?
Chicago is incredible, and it’s a far more livable, quiet, and affordable version of NYC, but mischief seems far more stable than any big agency in Chicago rn
I’m also curious about this
Next thing, you will move to Fort Lauderdale to work at Zimmerman.
I’ve worked there, and it’s not even a step down. It’s falling off the planet and landing on a meteor made of shit.
I wouldn’t be moving anywhere for Havas tbh
This has to be satire.

"I've always wanted to check out Chicago..."
Pretty sure there’s plenty of people at Havas who will gladly swap spots with you.
Moving from nyc for havas is crazy
More money?
How long have you worked at Mischief? Don’t think they have a Graphic Designer on staff.
Havas Chicago is always ALWAYS in turmoil. Having worked at various agencies in Chicago for 15 years, I’ve never heard one good thing about that agency.
Forgetting for a minute that you’re leaving a great agency to move to a questionable one, you are leaving the hub of advertising to move to place where it’s nearly dead. You’ll just have to move back to New York if you want another job in advertising after Havas.
