Depends on the agency really. Are you at a small indie, large indie, small Omnicom, large Omnicom, Omnicom acquisition, agency pending Omnicom acquisition, agency re-staffing after laying off entire staff before Omnicom acquisition, or in-house?

Community, I’ve been meeting with a lot of people regarding next steps in my career. One of the best pieces of advice I received is to avoid micro-managing executive staff (agency leadership), as it puts downward and unwelcome pressure on people’s managers and ultimately oneself. Based on your experience in the last 2 years are there:
- Agencies you would steer clear from because their leadership micromanages
- Agencies you would recommend because their leadership gives you room to grow

Thx 🙏🏼
