From the sound of your question, it sounds like you’ve already made up your mind, but I’ll provide some insight for anyone who may be interested.

End of day, like any agency, it’s gonna depend on what team you’re on. I’ve seen some teams compete with the likes of Wieden and GUT for earned PR work, create big commercials, and drive campaigns. I’ve seen some teams serve as a money saver and be tasked with simply doing digital and social.

I really enjoy the people here and think there’s a lot of smart, talented creatives who could easily be successful at other big name agencies. Could certainly use more strategists and, well, strategy when rolling out campaigns, but I’d say the in-house agency is doing pretty damn good for being less than 5 years old.

I’m sure there’s people who have had poor experiences. It’s not Wieden, but it certainly shouldn’t be getting Vayner-level hate on this app (not hating on Vayner, but damn do people hate it)

Yeah we made some decent stuff. The clients were hungry to take risks. They used to have a pretty strong ECD. He’s gone now.

I have a question for recruiters regarding background checks. If we are working 2 jobs what does that look like in the background check or in the credit check they do?

Does being a contractor hide this?
