It’s true. Everyone in the industry is being tasked to do more with less. Just remember we’re not saving any lives here as perspective, don’t burn yourself out, and keep your head up OP. As cliche as it sounds, good/hard work gets rewarded when it’s due.

Thank you PFX1. We have a lot of hard working / good people, I just am worried that some of us are working so hard that we tend to not notice what everyone else is doing around us.

People notice. But the truth is working hard/long is part of agency life.

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
