WFH vs RTO:

I started compiling a list from what I’ve seen on Fishbowl so I can figure out which agencies I’m going to hit up for a more flexible work policy. Please add any other agency info you have or correct any I got wrong. Thanks!

2012 Sr Associate. Left my firm in February after being recruited by a partner I used to work for, and it turns out I’m not very happy. Difficult people, terrible schedule and ruined vacations so far. A partner at my old firm in another group has asked if I would come back to work for just him. I liked working for him, we have great rapport and I could do permanent WFH since he is in another city. I don’t want to burn bridges, would this be a bad idea? Or an easy decision?

Thoughts on DDB here?

What would you all say a VP, Management Director at an Ogilvy, Leo or FCB make? $150k sound right? Appreciate any insight here.

What’s the story with Army account at DDB? Heard so many different things about their leadership and culture.

Is Leo still the best agency in Chicago?

If not, what are the best?

Thanks
