Holding cos killed this business. Go brand side.

Who aspires to work at an agency anymore? There have been like 5 good ads in the past 5 years and you have to be either insanely lucky, insanely talented or make ads your entire life to get a chance to maybe just be at the agency that makes one of those.

All the while the industry has paid less, made shorter deadlines, reduced any previous glamour seen in having these jobs & have promised to keep layoffs coming without warning.

Might as well go brandside, get your paycheck and not deal with half of that for basically the same slop or find some way to work independently either freelance or making art/content that ad agencies are incapable of.
