The absolute worst. Run by people who were junior staff at their one prior job and then promoted to Director+ after a few months at LS (all entitled white kids). It's kind of like being back in middle school, except the building is better. But that's it. They way LS wins clients is they send in the few, experienced people they have to the pitch, win the biz and then immediately hire a team for that account - cheap, inexperienced but optimistic and eager 20-somehings who have no idea they are being led into failure. Client gets fed up a few months later, drops LS and the agency lays off the whole team. Stay away, they are the worst in the industry.

Yeah, already applied. Just like I did the last 10 times they had an ACD/CD copy role. Same old auto answer.

Is anyone at a job they really, truly enjoy that also pays competitively (and has good benefits)? In my experience, I haven’t found anything that satisfies both. Either I love the job and I’m grossly underpaid or the job is totally mediocre but the money is great. Is it really possible to have it all or do I need to lower my standards? Maybe it’s just the way this industry is?
