I had a recruiter from Huge NY call me about a job about a year ago. When I told her my salary requirement she belittled me, told me I wasn’t worth it and that I needed to rethink it so I told her good luck in your search but remember you called me. She emailed me the next day to say the account team still really wanted to meet me despite her reservations. I didn’t bother answering her. So if that’s any indication of how they treat their employees, I would say there’s got to be more than a few disgruntled ones.
You could tell the account team what she did and ask what they will do about it in case they are unaware. But totally respect ghosting in that situation.
Negative, Ogilvy. Program department. Some people just genuinely enjoy their jobs and want to support their company
Wonder if ☝️works in their comms dept?
I feel like they’re having a hard timing moving past website designs into having clients pay/trust them to do solid campaign work imho
They recently put me through a few interviews and then completely ghosted. I reckon I should be used to it by now, but still pretty gauche, IMO
I’ve worked on three new clients in the past four months alone, and there are more projects coming in. Your other concerns are totally valid but management has changed mostly and clients come and go - thats agency life, especially at an agency that does mostly project work vs retainer
What office are you wondering about? They’re all different in terms of clients and stability.
I will say that in NYC we have new leadership and the layoffs were quite a few months ago. The new CEO Michael Koziol has taken the time to make some long-needed changes. The morale (to me) has greatly improved and things seem to be more on the upswing. Glassdoor is always a grain of salt - people only complain when they’re pissed as you seem to know hah
@ management supervisor 1 I think I talked to the exact same person a few years ago! I told her one of the main reasons I was leaving was because I'd been permalancing at the same place for 3 years and couldn't get above like $30/hr and needed more. She looked at me and scoffed and was like "well you can't expect to make as much fulltime as when you were freelancing". I wanted to ask her if $35k after 5 years of experience was a deal she'd take in NYC. My guess is, no.
Some major turnover in Toronto recently (at the leadership level) it seems as well
☝️👏👏👏👏
Huge 1 - management is incapable, clients are leaving, not much new biz, creative work is grunt banner work. Etc. Not sure how much can be taken seriously.
Huge 2 - I’m curious about the NY office. Are you winning new business?
Any conclusion here? They gave me a call yesterday and need to test.
My plan is to do the interviews and see what happens. Not like it looks bad on the resume.
What are some highlights?
Agreed with everything MS 1 said - had a similar experience with their recruiter, very rude and condescending, then ghosted - and she reached out to me too. New management looks interesting but wonder if they know how recruiters are operating?
I'm incredibly happy here. Actually turned down a raise to go somewhere else because I love the culture. And NYC is doing a lot better with new leadership.
