According to Business Insider, the design agency Sagmeister & Walsh has a history of featuring its staff in marketing material completely nude.
I confess: I cynically thought the nude employee photos would consist of one male boss, and twenty or thirty stunningly beautiful women. Mea Culpa.
While Business Insider initially ran the original images – which is to say fully nude S&W employees – they switched to blurred photos like the one below after receiving complaints. The firm’s web site made no such compromise.

While I was not offended, I also won’t be applying for a job there. I liked the photos quite a lot once my [silly] shock wore off.
Would you work there? Could you?
More backstory here.
Couldn’t work there….but enjoying the photo hahaha
Right? I suppose the benefit of being nude vs in a bathing suit is that no one would be looking at my thighs.
They sure wouldn’t, haha
It’s interesting that they do this, and as I found myself wondering “WHY?” I answered it as soon as I began Googling them. Smart cookies!
Yep effective
Omf. No. I could not, would not, be naked at work.
For any reason. But I kind of respect their willingness to literally let it all hang out.
Personally, I’ll stick with jeans and a tee, thanks.
Great post. I love crazy naked people.
You’re welcome, obviously
Hahaha exactly!
