Further proof that agencies are looking to go full stack tech and replace as many creatives as they can. Anyone who thinks otherwise is in serious denial.

It doesn’t matter if it’s good. Clients don’t care about brand building or the long game anymore.

As long as it’s fast, cheap, and “good enough” to replace us, agency holding co’s will. Short term profit is their religion and they’re fanatics.

Eh and it’s very much a glass cliff scenario. Tech leader just sounds good to shareholders and they’re the only ones that count.

Does anyone here work for Carvana? I’ve had a recruiter reach out about a position several times but know they just went through some layoffs. Have they recovered and are they on a good track or is there still a lot of risk?

So, I just joined a startup. No processes, no clear strategy, just one goal: selling. Getting leads. When ever I try to build a strategy, they (founders) swamp me with blablabla stories and not a single action plan. Is this the usual at startups? Also,no real company culture. At all. No HR. I am reaaaally struggling to get a sense of belonging here. What should I expect?? Tia

Have money invested in S&P 500, and now starting to regret not having diversified to international stocks as well. Would want to diversify now to buy a total stock market index, however since S&P 500 dropped more than that index, not sure it’s worth to crystallize losses to do that. The alternative is to stop buying S&P 500 and start buying other markets as separate ETFs, to eventually bring in line approx. with total stock market index. Any advice on the best course of action?
