Anyone else at an IPG agency unable to confirm their email address on here? The email never comes through - it seems to be outright blocked to prevent employees from getting on here. I guess I’ll just keep reading things I probably shouldn’t about my former agency / network?

Say you're a manager in a trucking & supply chain company. One of your drivers crashes your truck and leaves some damage on it. Truck is uninsured. Who should cover the repair costs? Me, being the owner of said truck, or the driver, being the one who caused the damage?

I’m trying to get an estimated ideal of what my costs would be when moving to Chicago. How much do you spend a month on “going out” (before pandemic)? Specifically referring to going to restaurants, getting drinks, take out, and coffee. Not including transportation.

Any new joiners attending first impression call tomorrow.

Is it expected/normal to get pregnant spouse Mother’s Day gift?

Hey everyone. I found out we are expecting our first child and I’m really nervous. I got into consulting one year ago and I’m up for promotion this year. With timing of our performance conversations I would have to inform I’m pregnant before outcomes - then shortly after the promotion effective date I would go on a leave for due date. I’ve worked really hard and I’m worried our wonderful news will throw chances with this :(- also if I don’t get promoted pretty sure it’s up or out. Any advice?

Anyone just out of first trimester struggling with sciatica pain on right side? It’s excruciating and not sure how to alleviate - I read up on some stretches?

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

My #1 peeve about agencies is the old school habit of emailing everything. The most efficient offices leverage task/mgmt platforms to manage workflows/bandwidth. Crowded inboxes of nonsense = WASTE.

Honest question, can fishbowl actually help resolve and navigate the challenges, frustrations and realizations we face as an industry? Or more just a place to vent?

Layoffs at Omnicom shops today?

My partner and I were brought in to do a second interview for a job at a very decent (but also huge) shop. How long is typical to go from that meeting with no word before you assume you didn’t get it?

Has anyone been able to negotiate anything extra or terms when being laid off?

Any shops to avoid as a Strategy Director? A female strategy director at that.

I’m clueless about 401ks. If I go to a new job does all that money I put into my 401k transfer with me? I’ve heard both yes and no so I am confused
