I was at an agency and worked on the website for the Bureau of Engraving and Printing when they were releasing the new $20 design. The contract was for $88M - and our parent company was the prime contract and simply sub-contracted all the work to various sister companies. The agency I was at was in charge of the website part of the contract and we were literally just another cog in the wheel - we were certainly being billed as high end talent, and we had to undergo a minimal security clearance to work with high-res images of the $20 bill, but we were severely underpaid and overworked - and we were offered no recognition for our efforts.
No regrets leaving the agency world.
