Meet agency ‘’ 72andSunny’’

We decided to explore an advertising agency 72andSunny — is a full-service advertising company with offices in Los Angeles, Amsterdam, New York, Singapore and Sydney. Why did we choose this company? We will explain you further…

First of all, as we noticed, this is a very optimistic company that can provide the world with a memorable and fun advertisement. The world is easier to perceive something fun and interesting instead of mad and deep. But also what’s important is that 72andSunny company is Modern company that keeps up with the times. As they said: «We define ‘Modern’ as being comfortable with change. And since change is the only constant, we embrace it. Modern culture changes quickly, brands must adapt, we help.»

As a marketing, advertising, and design company, 72andSunny specializes in brand transformations and aims to expand and diversify the creative class. 72andSunny has been recognized as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies for two years in a row and is a two-time “Agency of the Year” winner for Advertising Age and Adweek. 72andSunny’s clients include Activision, adidas, Axe, Barilla, Bugaboo, Carl’s Jr./Hardee’s, Carlsberg, Ciroc, Comcast, Coors, Dropbox, eBay, ESPN, Instagram, Google, General Mills, Infiniti, Seventh Generation, Smirnoff, Starbucks, Tillamook, and Truth.

Some interesting examples from their works:

Exploring this company, we noticed that they care about their employees. They design all of their spaces for optimism and for productivity. It is also viewed as a statement of optimism, a recognition that you can work inside the light, bright, comfortable and cozy rooms — that’s more fun, after all.

What do you like about working at 72andSunny?

“good selection of beverages and snacks. parties and general company reputation.`”

What don’t you like about working at 72andSunny?

“I never got to go home. I was severely overworked. I was under appreciated. I wasn’t trained properly. they had unrealistic expectations.”

What suggestions do you have for management?

“there are too many chiefs and not enough indians. the poor treatment of the employees and client mismanagement will catch up with you eventually.”

To be fair, it isn’t so positive feedback from employer. They are really work hard and maybe even sometimes without days-off, but if i will show you a few reviews from clients, you will understand that it’s worth it.
