For a creative, shopper is not good for your portfolio. The hard truth is that it's looked down upon.

@OP don't know your department, but as a creative the work is uninspiring. Leadership is a mess. The people are great, but many are unhappy/leaving.

I will say, the work is easy. If you're not looking for any meaning through your job it's decent. Clients want a lot of tactical executions. No big ideas.

Don't why? The nature of the work? Or the culture?

howd the coke store pitch go geometry?

I feel like most of the advice here is just don't, but unfortunately that's the advice for anywhere these days. I think what this person would like to know is how does Geometry stack up in the larger landscape of all this fucking shit. I know an account person at GG in Chicago who loves her job. I wish I had more info. Does someone else have more?

I know creatives have a hang up about "shopper", but geometry is about as good of a shopper agency as I've seen. They generally aren't a nightmare to work with and they are an equal partner in many of their IATs-- particularly Kimberly Clark.

Thanks everyone! I'm in Account. And frankly, shopper work bores me, but I'm trying to have an open mind. My shopper experience at FCB was a total nightmare. I'm just worried I would be developing tactical plans and banner ads all day long...

Hi Fishes,
I got offer from persistent with 31lpa.
But most of the compensation they added into skill bonus-1400000. Due to that my basic salary is low- 50k as compared to my cctc basic salary, which is 63k with 19.5lpa.
Is it normally happening with everyone joining to persistent?
Can Persistent increase basic salary component and reduce the skill bouns?
I asked hr to increase my basic, but she mentioned that it’s system generated and standard format, vary cmpny to cmpny.
Plz help me out guys.
