Exactly. What I meant is that this is a symptom of a larger problem. It's either not the entire story or it's part of a larger issue which prompted the OP to vent their discomfort being this the final act

Yeah, you are all right. The agency was acquired by a larger "Corporation" and since then everything was a shitshow.

Been there. Worked for a great, high-performing consultancy that got bought by a much larger consultancy. I still remember some of my customers bemusement and asking, "you don't have to get a lobotomy as part of your onboarding with the new company, do you? We'd previously kicked that company out because their people were so useless."

There was a reason why the new ownership allowed all of us to keep our old email addresses: they knew that if they forced us to wear their sign, those that had otherwise stayed would have left.
