lol does it even matter? Havas is about the bottom of the barrel creatively and I wouldn’t see that changing.

That’s surprising, hasn’t she been there for over 25+ years? I think she started as an intern and worked her way up. Wasn’t a fan personally but good for her for moving on.

She was a blast if she liked you. No idea why she left but her note suggested it wasn't her decision, or at least not planned. She'll land fine, and without the stench of Hellvas, she may even get better. But it could be a wild ride for her. Only knowing 1 place for 20+ years could be in for a rude awakening. My guess is she steps into CoLab or does the the 1-year plan at Grey or The Bloc like everyone else.

Curious where she lands next. I can think of a few smaller agencies that are in need of a CCO.

She just announced on LinkedIn that she’s the new CCO at Digitas Health

That is Publicis

I just got a really great offer, only downside is the eligibility for maternity leave is after 12 months of employment. We got a faint positive today but have had so many chemical pregnancies over the past year that I am not confident it will stick this time BUT I am on aspirin and progesterone for this try … so it could.. I want to see if I could negotiate being eligible earlier but I also don’t want them to think I’m pregnant when I’m not actually… How would you approach the conversation?

Hi All,can you please let me give me some idea about the following things:

3. How is the work-life balance and job security for people working in India office?

Thanks in advance.

I am fed up of my people lead/supervisor
Gives unrealistic deadlines, has no time for discussion and next day he is up with his nagging behaviour

Doesnt even know how to talk in a certain professional manner, fed up with his nagging behaviour.

And yeah forgets everything! Need to remind him each and everytime about the tasks and boom, then he comes up with his negative demotivating statements!

Feeling like I’ve been “bait-and-switched”…

I’ve been interviewing at an agency with the intention of filling a Director role. Recruitment reached out soon after my last meet-and-greet interview (about 6 to 7 people total) to tell me the team thinks I would be best suited for an Associate Director role with a fast follow of a Director promotion.

Recruitment can’t tell me what feedback is creating this gap but also won’t stop mentioning the positive praise and feedback the team had for me.
