What our people say

I was always told to choose an agency by the amount of opportunity waiting for me. Working at Norton has been like riding an escalator of opportunity. With each passing day, there are new challenges to overcome and new opportunities to grow. As a rapidly growing agency, we have a fast-paced environment that rewards initiative, curiosity, and hard work. I’ve felt like a valued member of the team since day one. My thoughts and opinions are always heard. Beyond the work, it’s the people of Norton that makes this a great place to work. Their diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives are constantly shaping me into the best version of my myself. I can truthfully say, there’s nowhere else I’d rather be!

Tom Zauberman

Account Planner
What I love most about my job is the people I work with, and the freedom to run with my ideas and have an impact on how the agency & strategy department is run. We are building something great here and our business results prove it. Our strategy department is one of those rare breeds of sharp and super nice folks that truly collaborate - something I’m discovering is difficult to find.

Meredith Jao

Account Planning Supervisor
One incredible thing about working at Norton is the education one receives. We learn so much from our client partners about cutting-edge medical technologies, disease treatment, and so much more. It’s sometimes like stepping foot into medical school, or various medical schools as the case may be. There’s always something exciting to absorb and share. I work in advertising, but I often feel as if I work in Ophthalmology, Pediatrics, Wound Care or wherever the work takes me next.

Brian Quinn

Creative Director
Being a creative in this fast-paced city I so dearly love can be challenging, but when you have a team of like-minded people, it makes it so much easier. That’s what Norton has given me over the course of 5 ½ years, along with an environment where I could grow as a creative across all mediums. I’m able to think outside the box on a grander scale, whether it be designing websites or having an impromptu photoshoot downtown, all while learning from a talented group of people and taking courses to improve my craft. I’ve had the opportunity to travel for photoshoots and work with some non-profit clients that are near and dear to my heart. When you work on a variety of projects and are allowed to bring your vision to the table, it’s not work. And that’s what I love most about Norton, it’s not work, it’s about creativity and passion.
