Just left after almost four years. (Probably outting myself to other McCann 🐡. Hi guys 👋.) Great for strategy. Creative keeps raising the bar. Always felt bad for my account people, but aren’t all account people masochists? Worth pursuing for sure.

@senior strategic planner- how’s Mechanism so far? 😉

The place is good for getting good work on your resume. However leadership is not great and the culture stinks like a dirty diaper. I heard the culture was a lot better before the work started winning awards again. Still some good people left from back in the day. Also a major staffing issue where most departments are understaffed, regardless of the massive amount of revenue the agency is making. You’re starting to see AM, PM, and Creative specifically start to get burnt out.
