The article reflects on the author's love for the advertising industry, praising its vibrant and diverse culture that fosters creativity and lifelong friendships. However, it highlights a troubling trend as many employees resist returning to the office, opting for remote work instead. The author asserts that advertising agencies are ill-suited to remote work due to their reliance on face-to-face collaboration. Mark Read, CEO of WPP, underscores this concern by mandating a return to the office, leading to pushback from employees who view work-from-home as an entitlement.
"The advertising industry has offered me a vibrant, varied, fascinating, and fun environment, filled with endless opportunities and lifelong friendships among creative misfits and mavericks."
"Droves of dullards have plunged the advertising industry into an existential crisis, demanding to work from home, despite the creative collaboration that advertising thrives on."
