Deeply Ogilvized February 27th, 2008

For today is Wednesday, same as my starting day of work at Ogilvy, hence I considered it’s worth saying some words about my new job which I really hope to keep for a serious amount of time.

Initially, let me congratulate the wonderful staff here at OgilvyKS who did that marvelous work of NEWBORN.
It was an amazing piece of work, incomparable and prominent one, carved in everyone’s heart and mind. I feel very honored meantime fortunate to have been part of that wonderful team. Everyone has been fully committed to it, this way pouring their own maximal potential and energy so to finalize NEWBORN on time and as perfect as possible. Proudly I can say that we did it.

Today it is my 23th day working there as a web developer, under the OgilvyKS Interactive department and I must admit the fact that I am enjoying it completely. Sincerely, never thought that existed such a company here (in Kosova) with a perfect work strategy as Ogilvy’s. I’m fascinated, glad to finally meet one.
What is Ogilvy? Let me answer to that question very quickly and understandably: Ogilvy is an international advertising, marketing and public relations agency, Period. Besides Ogilvy & Mather has it’s own branches worldwide with 502 offices spread in 161 cities all around the world. Enough explanation from me, to get a closer look about the company check the link here, visit here or search in Google.

The work conditions are unquestionable, above all the environment has it’s own warm and familiarity which attracts you in an unnoticed way, the more you go there the more you like it in there. What I admire the most is the friendly relation between the director who even though has a very sounding voice treats it’s subordinates in an unseen kind way. The communication between everybody is simply extraordinary.

I really don’t want to continue elaborating in detail everything, for I could write the whole night though, think it’s better to provide some pictures where you can experience at least a very small feeling of what I’m loving more and more each day. Take a closer look below. . .

If you happen to raise your head and look up the roof, this is what you will see.


Immediately on the right side after you enter the office are the steps to the second floor.

Well, now it’s time to see the area where I work. All about the second floor, follow me . . .

Finally we're there, this is it, creative and interactive department.

Every part of the walls is filled with David Ogilvy quotes. This is the pretties one.

Except work, what's wrong with being engaged to being updated with football match results??

Of course fun times do not miss either!

This is our brainstorming room.
Self explanatory.


Only God and he who wrote it can understand.

Finally, more or less this is all about it, of course it’s only the outer part, the only way to experience the real thing is to live in the inner side.
Last but not least, I’d like to thank my friend Gega for introducing me to this great company.

    AHA! So this is what happens when I’m not around the office?

    First, I want a photo of me shouting and angrily shaking my index finger at someone.

    Second, I will have to take a course on becoming a ruthless, jackass boss.

    Third, Safet hajt edhe nji shpuzore bjerma qaty… Edhe hajt merrma nji 7-she me shum kepe edhe 3 jogurta.
