Job Title Workplace Survey
Media Planner I was a Media Planner and/or Assistant Media Planner for J. Walter Thompson for almost two years before leaving to attend graduate school. The company, like most advertising firms in Manhattan, had a very high rate of turnover. When I left, I was one of the most senior members of the media dept. in terms of time with the agency. Again, as with most ad firms in NYC, I was able to secure promotions and raises only when I had competing job offers. Despite the very long hours (9am to anywhere from 7 to 11 pm) and low pay to begin with, the work was challenging and interesting. The corporate culture is lacking, but made up for by interesting coworkers and a business casual dress code. Another nice perk: when you are in the office after 8 pm, the company gives you $10 for dinner and pays for a cab home.
