When I met the CCO at an informal social meet and greet of IAT agency partners, he made me hate him within 5 minutes. I found him to b the living embodiment of every bad stereotype of the hypey hipster creative douche, so much so that it took me the whole 5 minutes to realize he wasn’t kidding.

How many Supreme t shirts do you own?

likefunny

They promoted an intern to Creative Director in less than 4 years.

Make of that what you will.

The CCO cares more about his shoe collection and IG followers than the people or the work.

likeupliftingfunny

The CCO there is complained about on fishbowl constantly. Several good people I know who interviewed there were told to come back when they have more Instagram followers. They seem like a company that puts more work into advertising themselves than their clients. No idea about the pay.

If you own a deep collection of Off White Nike’s and rare Adidas Ultra Boosts, you’ll be a CD in no time.

Very few people know what an idea is. You better like hip hop. The CCO never won an award in his life and thinks he’s Bogusky. You can bring your dog which is cool

likeuplifting

It’s a crapshack that uses the CCO's passed gas for heat and their two clients’ tears for water.

likefunny

They want cheap and young. And use the hashtag #NeverSleeps or #HavasNeverSleeps. Definitely good at promoting themselves but the client work is lackluster at best. And they like to openly rip apart all other agencies any chance they get.
