Can’t be better. Seeing all these agencies losing millions. Crafting decks about AI, reducing losses and focusing on reinventing a brighter future. Oh sorry, I read McKinsey.

Can’t speak to perception since I work here so I’m biased. But vibes are good. Each office has a different feel to it. But there are good creative ops, feels like a relatively stable and positive culture (as far as the industry goes), and i find worklife balance to be pretty good. Approachable leaders. Can’t complain! Expect I of course do complain lol.

McKinney 1, would you say work life balance is good at McKinney? Any pointers for someone who is looking to apply to a job there?
