Things are apparently going to get better after a client will be leaving, I’ll get to work on different brands but I am feeling pretty burnt out from the agency I’m at. Will new clients help? Or should I look elsewhere. Been at the agency almost 3 years, I feel like I need to switch things up for my sanity.

I think a new client could help a lot. My recommendation is to see if the new client renews your passion and motivation for creating where you are. If it doesn't, then you'll know it's the place not the work...and you can start looking.

Thanks for the advice, CD1. To add to it, another agency reached out and will likely be making an offer soon. The agency has less of a creative reputation than where I’m at, but also hired a new CCO that has been able to up the work. But still, less reputable creative shop than where I currently am.

New client will help.
I’m always looking. Not necessarily taking but looking. Just because you’re looking doesn’t mean you’ll get. So with that said, my advice is look. Can’t hurt.

Thanks CD2! Totally agree, eyes open.

I really need advice. I’ve been in my current role for a couple years and I’m just so defeated. I am good at my job. I work so hard and I’m so undervalued and unappreciated. My work is scrutinized to a degree that no one else experiences (I could give concrete examples of other people delivering design work that haven’t met BASIC design principles and it’s gotten approved) compared to me where I frequently get feedback that somehow makes my work worse but I just comply because it’s not (1/2)
