Has anyone heard anything from the Amtrak RFP?

How do y’all deal with people at work who are stuck on stupid? Like they have no idea what they’re talking about and they REFUSE to learn. It’s like they have a god complex or something even with proof, maybe bc of their tenure at the company? Even if there’s valid data backing up that they’re wrong. Maybe it’s bc I’m a type 8 enneagram, but it frustrates the hell out of me!
So any advice would be lovely :)

Religions can advertise??..SCIENTOLOGY??? What just happened

Seen many posts about "The Many", just wondering how many people actually like it there and how many of it is just vacancies from many people leaving.

Many thanks.

PHD media in New York.... any thoughts ? How's the culture? Particularly for Sr. level folks?

Do you think remote hires are less safe when layoffs come or is that an old school mentality?

So I finished my 3rd interview with a company and the TA specialist said they loved me but can’t meet me at my bottom line salary, however, I said I can negotiate and she said she’s going to speak with the decision makers and see if they’re okay with that. What does this mean? This is for a marketing specialist role. I’m asking for $70K bottom line

Paid team currently complaining about which vendors didn’t send them holiday gifts this year 🙄

Without asking or confirming, account lead booked an in-person client meeting that requires travel. Who books ~any~ major client meeting without first checking with the team ?

What do you put in your timesheet after a day of staring at your computer? We all have days that are less than productive, right? Speaking as a creative, anyway.

Moving into a new role to support marketing efforts of two smaller divisions under our brand umbrella. When I asked my boss what the job description was to create year end goals they told me to write one. . . Where do I start?

Is it worth it to leave a current FTE perm role to work for Google as an freelancing executive producer, 6+ contract with possible extensions pending budget, performance etc? Debating the massive brand name and experience but leaving job security etc. for it

Our grp president sent email recognizing women today, but only sent to a small group. Defeats the purpose, no? Wtf.

Honest thoughts on Horizon? What are their toughest accounts to work on?

If we missed to submit timesheet for first fortnight still we will get salary or not? In Accenture

Good Morning Everyone,

I hope everyone’s week has been going well. I applied for the Business Development Manager - Platform Partnerships with Square for Zone B.

Would there be someone willing to point me in the right direction or refer me?

Thank you in advance.

A lot of people here seem to glamorize MANGA positions - good pay, and good WLB. There has to be a catch, right?

Any Audit and Assurance professionals in this group?

When do firms start sponsoring green cards? What’s the earliest year you have seen and can I negotiate this as part of lateral package?

I got an offer at Nokia, and my new manager said that she wanted to put me in the higher salary bracket however the HR insisted that we lowered the range. That caused me to receive a much lower salary than expected. Should I renegotiate even when my manager said that she tried giving me more. Does HR really play that big of a role in this?

Can anyone tell me about which pharma/health companies OR agencies have great WFH/remote/flex policies? I feel like Glassdoor and Indeed don't highlight that enough when it's one of the things I care about the most.

Is it true for Assoc 602 level who hasn't completed one year, can't have S. My managers(functional and local) gave this reason for my OOO?

My functional manager personally messaged me later and said his recommendation is SOS but they cannot work past through the rules of less than 1year

According to an article in LinkedIn new job postings are down for the first time in 9 months but still there over 10 million open jobs with only 5.9 million unemployed workers. Why is it that here I am unemployed over 4 months and still not one offer. Anyone got some positive vibes to send my way it would be appreciated! I’ve been in sales for over 20 years, b2c, b2b and account management as well as sales management. I’ve got great skills and enthusiasm to give to a great employer!

I started a new job a couple months ago and am not happy. As I’m trying to get clear about what I want I’ve realized my happiest place is brand positioning / voice definition work. Is that still a thing primarily handled by big, coastal agencies? Any tips on how to find brand-centric roles like that?
