Thoughts on Grey, Mullen Lowe, Arnold Worldwide and Digitas? Considering shifting from my current agency and I wanna know the feel?

Ps. I like my current team and I’m terrified of shifting but I’m looking at promotions and raises any advice on confronting that fear of change would be so welcome.

My advice is to do what is best for you. While a great team is valuable, your team won’t help you reach your financial goals. Also, it is common to switch organizations for a higher pay increase or promotion. If you transition to a diff org and decide that you would rather your current company, you could return as a “boomerang” employee and leverage your additional experiences for another pay increase / promotion. Whatever you choose, good luck!!✨

I feel your pain, OP. I think all junior level agency salaries might be 😬??

Arnold is the most creatively sound.

At the holding company level, probably ipg has best benefits.

Mullen is in a bad place rn..I'd be esp weary of accounts.

Digitas has been silent for more than a couple years, stay away.

Grey is old school and I dunno that you'll gain anything. Work life balance might be good though.

I'm at digitas and feel totally supported and empowered in my role. Some new business wins have been coming in that we just been quiet about while now so there's that but overall I like it so far.

Happy to chat more if you want!

Most times an agency wins something they're quietly about it's pharma or some random account nobody cares about. Also are you in the creative department? Markers for creatives is entirely different. Your shop has to be relevant or making relevant work for you to be deemed successful. Not the same for other departments
