The new Publicis team on TCCC has been awful so far. Granted they weren't set up for success with a 2 week on board time but geeze, didn't they have plans, this was in the works for months. They are also using our old media teams' blueprint for their work and putting their team name on it. All I can say is, Coke spares no one. Good luck. But also get it together, it's hurting everyone.

You should sit in meetings with your team on the account. Talk about negative. It's been horrible. They are not prepared and we're expected to help them. It's been very painful, even clients say so.

We still have the creative and media elsewhere - we ‘only’ lost media in NA - so we have to work with Publicis and will see what they’re doing and how they’re working… it’s not spy world 😆

And in 6 months, you’ll lose that too. Exactly like Pfizer. It’s the playbook.

Interviewed for the director position to run TCCC paid social work and could tell it seemed chaotic and baptism by fire vibes. Glad my gut wasn't wrong in the bad vibes.

If you have onboarded a major media account, you know minimal disruption is the name of the game first 6 months. Then a new strategy is built when they get briefed for new campaigns (not for existing campaigns that need to be transferred over immediately). You wouldn’t expect a brand new strategy to appear in market in 3 weeks time? Transitions are rocky as you are asking a tremendous amount on client side, partner agency side, new agency, incumbent agency etc. I can’t speak for this transition, but on top of it all, you are generally operating with breadcrumbs of information, piecing together existing plans, and an incumbent that doesn’t care to set you up for success (which, understood as most have already been re-allocated etc).
