It’s a great place to work, but they don’t really make great work. No one will ever push back on the clients and not many people will help you push for a campaign that isn’t a mascot. Toomgis, Professor Burke, Brad Bellflower, Poopsie, Brooke Shields. Honda is the only possible exception, but I count Fred Savage as their mascot.

If you want a paycheck and to leave at 5 work on Honda. If you want to make something more creative you can try working on their other accounts, but sadly none of them have any money for good work.

Lots of older creatives, and a lot of the upper staff has been there for over 15 years, so the average age is much higher than other agencies and the office can feel very sleepy. But there are still happy hours every other week. They throw pretty good parties and really do try to make people happy. Lots of women in the office but almost none above CD level.

I’ll be back later if you have any specific questions, but I need lunch.

Probably depends on how you feel about their work. I find it very mediocre, personally.

in my opinion, the honda work pushes the category the most these days. they don’t rely on driving footage and always have a fresh, interesting vibe. they’ve won lions for honda. curious what other car work people think is better? audi used to be great. vw is up and down. all other car work sucks.
