Anyone know which auto brand is on pitch watch alert?

/the 7 people that upvoted it. Too many consumers around here!!!

Planning a southern Germany and Switzerland trip over Xmas - must visit cities??

Why are people not good at ending zoom calls? I feel like I’m always the person who throws in the closing statement (I.e, ok well sounds good is that all? Have a nice day! This was helpful thanks Karyn..looks like we’re at top of the hour already) 🤦🏻‍♀️

That moment when you don’t remember if you took your Adderall so you take one just in case 🙃

Who built the cages?

If I'm going through the process with a VC fund and decide I don't want to do VC now (but want to leave the door open in the future), what's the best way to drop out of the process? Don't want to waste their time but want to keep the door open as well

What is the biggest "burden" about your jobs? The research of stocks, funds, bonds, etc. or putting together a portfolio for customers during the busy seasons?

Have you been able to spend more time with your kids during the pandemic? How?

Role : Senior software engineer

Hi Fishies. Looking for a good real people/comedy directors who can work with lower budgets . Would love any recommendations. Thanks.

I saw 2 posts earlier about the show "Ultimatum" on Netflix. Can't pass up trashy TV and started watching. Just finished episode 3 and loving it! Considering cancelling tonight's plans so that I can binge the rest of the season before bed.

Spoiler alert, stop reading if you care

Does anyone happen to know the PwC discount codes for Hilton and Marriott hotels...asking for a friend

My friend bought a nice condominium and his agent assured him that it had a garage. AFTER he signed the papers and moved in, the neighbors told him that the unit does not come with a garage. Can he sue the agent? He feels ripped off.

Dear first years,

When my door is closed, I am in the middle of something and trying to focus. Please stop knocking and letting yourself in to chat. I want to help you, I really do, but if my door is closed it means I am not able to help you right this second. I promise that my door will be open when I am available to do so.

Signed,
An overwhelmed second year

Edit: any advice on how to say this IRL without crushing their spirits?

Eyeing an open spot as a Senior Manager GPS Contracts DOD Sub-Sector Lead. What would be the anticipated compensation (base + bonus%?) for this role? I imagine it’s an internal (non-client facing) role within the larger GPS division. Currently have 14+YOE of specialized DOD contracting experience to include supervisory experience. TIA

what’re the agencies in Toronto that are best for diversity / healthy culture of mutual respect for all - women, POC? know nowhere is perfect but any doing okay?

BBDO laying off 30+ staff this year, but also buying their remaining staff Christmas gifts got me like 🤮🤡

How's it like at Anomaly?

Anyone in Toronto looking for a CD? I need to make a change. Agency or in-house (if the in-house is cool.)

Most sweatshop agencies?

Is our industry as competitive as some say? I see a lot of people saying this and I work with a bunch of hacks (myself included). It felt like a little while ago agencies were begging to hire new talent, and most couldn’t find new people. Is it really that hard to get a job at an agency? Maybe I’m just out of touch being in this career for so long.

Creative directors, what is your salary and how many years have you been in your CD role?

Did a bunch of agencies just go on a firing spree before Christmas?

Who was at the ADCC? Thoughts on the NABs stunt?

Still waiting for the Heinz soup response

Has anyone used a career coach? Not a recruiter but someone who can give advice on making career changes. Any good names come to mind?

Any creative directors (any level, CD/GCD/ACD) you would move agencies to work for or learn from? Who and why?

Let's help each other out. Feel free to use this thread for job postings for any agency who's hiring in Toronto.

So Zulu just won an award for culture. Is this BS? I’ve heard it’s a terrible place to work. What’s the vibe?

Is anyone's agency currently looking for a Senior or ACD position?

What is the overall sentiment of the talent pool in Toronto? IMO There are a lot of questionable people in this market, how are they employed?

Will there be layoffs at grip/dentsu? just saw that they’re folding the Grip agency brand 👀

No one talks about anomaly, how are they? Also interested in how the design team is there too.

Super important topic - What RU wearing to your Christmas party. I’ve been seeing pics of guys in suits and women in gowns this year.
