What you're describing is in fact typical of most agencies — they're filled with young kids who become an army to grind out billable hours. I think you need to identify what you're really hating about your situation in order to figure out the correct action:
- Is it the subject matter? Would working on a product be more fun? Would it be fun if you lost your job after a month? Would work at another agency with better clients be more fun?
- Is it the money and/or job title? If you made more or felt less like a "code money" would you be happier? If so maybe jump to an another agency.
- Are you really perhaps just unhappy with the people there? Or are you maybe feeling like you aren't learning anything new? That might be a good reason to jump ship.
By the way you may want to learn some patience for non-coders and the like: Learning that skill can make you management material instead of being stuck debugging.
