In-house vs agency – Employment Hero’s Alex Concannon makes the case for where in-house teams have a clear advantage over agencies.
With burnout rampant among workers in creative and media agencies, the opportunity to work in-house offers them the chance to focus more on their mental health and well-being – if only they knew such opportunities existed on the client side of the fence.
Agency life has always been demanding, requiring people to put in long hours to meet tight deadlines, but these demands took a particularly heavy toll during the pandemic and lockdowns.
Two years later, the world has changed, people have changed, but agency life’s pressure to constantly go above and beyond hasn’t gone away. There is now a greater emphasis on their own personal well-being and something has to give. This is where in-house teams have a clear advantage over agencies.
