I'd work on advertisements for high six figures. That being said, I'd also be a terrible culture fit in an advertising shop. I can't stand ads and a hobby of mine is criticising the ads, and companies, forcing me through them for the duration thereof.

>I must be fun at parties

Parties with ads, or any paid "guests" are not fun...

What are your most frequently recurring points of criticism and what type of ads you find elicit the least criticism?

That's a question I want to get paid six figures to answer.

What makes you think your criticism is worth paying six figures for? :)

The quality of the advertisements I see hocking the wares of blue chip and f500 companies. :D

If jefftk wanted to stop working on ads, he could transfer within weeks to any of hundreds of open positions on Google's internal recruitment platform, keeping the same compensation, benefits, etc. It's stupidly easy (doesn't even require your current manager's approval!) and the only "cost" is usually that it can set you back slightly in your career due to abandoning your current projects and having to ramp up on new stuff.

So no, "because of the salary" doesn't explain any of it, and you should read the blog post before posting insulting comments like these.

Saying so with your real name and blog? Good luck.
