About M Booth
What is M Booth?
M Booth is a New York-headquartered creative communications agency that calls itself "a culture-first communications agency that attracts the best people and the best brands to a workplace that's alive with courage, ideas, respect and humanity." Its work spans earned media and PR, corporate affairs, digital and social strategy, influencer marketing and paid media. "Our agency was born 40 years ago with entrepreneurial roots, a people-first culture, and a passion for creativity and innovation," it writes on its careers page. "As we look to the future we believe Only the Bold will make a lasting impact and change." M Booth is "part of London-based public holding company, Next 15" — "the lovely folks who acquired us" — which gives it "a presence in 32 markets around the world."
Where will I work?
"Our 300+ M Boothers are located throughout the U.S. with our HQ in NYC and hubs across key media markets." The agency publishes a flexible work policy with two tracks. Near New York, it is hybrid: "We believe that our best work happens in a hybrid working environment. If you are in the NYC (or commutable surrounding distance) hub we want to see you in person 2 days a week." That can mean the office, a client's office, the road or an industry event. Outside that hub, remote is a permanent option: "We believe work from anywhere works... we have Boothers working from more than 20 different U.S. markets. Your location will not impact your candidacy should you decide to work remote permanently." M Booth adds that "there is no stigma or impact on job security should you choose not to return to the office." Remote applicants must be based in one of 21 listed states or Washington D.C.
What is the M Booth team like?
Roughly 300 people who describe themselves as "storytellers, former journalists, change communicators, digital mavens, proud emerging tech nerds, influencer strategists, content creators, culture shapers, data scientists, and paid media specialists." Employees are asked to "Be IRL" — Inspired Relevant Leaders — and hybrid working is framed around it: "inspiration, relevance, and leadership are about how you do it, not where you do it from." Among the things M Booth says it brings to a career are "professional growth and development programs to help advance your career" and "the ability to go deep on high-profile clients."
Work-Life Balance
M Booth lists an identical time-off package on its careers page and on every open role: "Paid holidays, Unlimited Paid Time Off (Personal, Sick, Vacation), and Summer Fridays." But "Summer Fridays" appears as a benefit line and nothing more: M Booth does not publish which dates it covers or what hours it changes. The flexible work policy above carries most of the substance, including an explicit commitment that staying remote costs you nothing in career terms. Listed alongside are "Family Leave, Well-Being Programs, and Commuter Benefits." Nothing on M Booth's site or job board mentions a four-day week, a 32-hour week or compressed hours.
