mediabistro.com: AgencySpy: 'Sinking (in quick) Sand at JWT Inside' - mediabistro.com: AgencySpy

    Too bad. This agency was one of the best 10-12 years ago. Then it brought in Tim Gibbon (a Hodes lunk-head), and he reorganized the agency no less than 5X in 5 years (1998-2003). All the good regional management plugged into client relations left or were fired. Gibbon kept his ex-Hodes flunkies, and was eventually forced out by JWT for poor performance (and complete employee disillusionment. Only person left to lead company was Jerry Touslee, a guy who has never even led an office bigger than 3 people. So sad.

    Hack agency. Hack leadership.

    Recruitment marketing is where old creatives go to die.

    What I remember is on Sub-Mariner's "Atlantis Under Attack". The part when the Lady Dorma took a brisk walk in the sea jungle and all of sudden, she stepped and sinking into the "Quagmire Of Doom". Of course, the Quagmire Of Doom really is quicksand, she had her arms raise up and showing her teeth like she was smiling happy and so forth.
