I have no inside info on either but I think I would lean towards Saatchi's. The BHF, Waitrose and EE work over the past year has been top tier. Both decent though.

‘Top tier’ is a stretch.

Saatchi’s output is much better. But I hear the CCO is problematic

The comment she gave to the press when the Robinsons gurgling ad got slated was really childish

Also no inside knowledge but second hand would imply the Saatchi culture isn’t great. VCCP doing some interesting AI work on O2

Saatchis still has a really difficult culture. It can be bullish and the very top leadership guy (M) is uh, notorious. VCCP much nicer culture but the work is bang average. Redundancies happening at both by the way.

"Difficult" is an understatement

Any advice/mentorship would be wonderful!

Have interviewed a couple of people from WK over the past few weeks and have been hearing a lot about how it’s becoming a pretty horrible place to work since Susan came onboard. The criticism was more around actually working there than the work itself but is it really that bad? One of the candidates was saying that many of the good creatives have been leaving or are planning to leave because of this. I haven’t ever worked for Susan so I have no clue. Anyone heard anything similar?
