I worked in some of the top digital agencies for a long time. It is marked by fast pace and high levels of uncertainty. Depending on the quality of your team this is either an adrenaline rush or a meat grinder. Frequently flip flopping between the two. But you'll never be bored.

The agency landscape is pretty broad. Some shops are very technical, some are design lead. Some can dump an army of bodies on a project and some deploy lean tiger teams. My experience was doing a lot of strategic engagements. I got to do architecture and real planning and quality control. Sometimes it was fire and forget popup projects. Rarely if ever did we own any support role which was pretty great. Got to flip between web, mobile and even experiential work. Very frequently thrown into stuff with no training which is always exciting/terrifying depending on your personality.
