What’s happening here ?

I’m about to start an internship at IBM for UX Research. I’m super excited about it, and was wondering if anyone could tell me about the design culture there or how the company is for designers? So far online I’ve only heard about the company from consultants or software engineers. For more reference I’ll be working in Austin.

Ad agencies also do branding. Branding agencies are rarely good at ads
Ad agencies you come up with lots of ideas to solve one problem. Branding you come up with one or two big brand platforms and apply it through voice.
The ratio of designers to art directors in branding is about 10:1 so I usually work with 3-5 on a project, vs at an agency where I had 1 AD partner
Sounds like you should go to agency
Yeah but be prepared to take a back seat to designers in a branding shop. It’s not like working with Art Directors who are used to partnering up. Odds are they prefer working alone vs teaming up with a writer
Direct response is where the money is though.
