McGarrah Jessee’s New Employment Policies Include Unlimited and Mandatory PTO
Our new policies include changes to our vacation policy and where employees are expected to live. We now offer employees unlimited paid time off and actually require employees to take at least three weeks of paid time off per year to ensure they take time to rest and replenish. We also eliminated any geographical restrictions to employment.

An ad agency made Alexa apologize to losing Amazon HQ2 cities
Amazon may not have picked these locales for its second headquarters, but at least now they get weirdly specific apologies from Alexa. Because Amazon is unlikely to utter even the most cursory “It’s not you, it’s me,” Austin, Texas-based agency McGarrah Jessee created custom apologies on Amazon’s behalf. Each apology is accessible through Alexa skills–and they can get oddly specific to each city.

About
We are a full-service, Austin-born, 130-person creative agency – 25 years in the making. We believe advertising alone isn’t the answer to any major business opportunity. Because of that, we partner deeply with a few select clients to help them evaluate their whole brand experience, from point of sale to advertising to how they show up in social.
What drives us? Not just great work, but the ability to fundamentally impact our clients’ businesses. Our sweet spot? Fueling irrational brand fandom for our clients.
