Hii! Looking for compensation range for a mid level researcher in San Diego, California!
Do all companies provide a sign in bonus? What’s that like?

Please remember, when you’re asking for salary information, it’s important to mention where you are located. For example, $100,000 is going to be a lot more in Mississippi than in San Francisco. Thanks guys.

Best stocks to buy/DCA into during the continued recession/incoming pain?

Cisco

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time

Anyone at JPM Onyx that can answer some questions?

I created a macro to help me save time on this onetime task and now whenever I open my excel, a blank excel opens with the name of the macro. How do I get rid of it?

Fitbit Charge 5 or Apple watch?

I like that Fitbit is cheaper and has better sleep analysis it seems but hate the lack of band options I’ve found online. I don’t need my phone at my wrist either which is why I’m leaning towards the Fitbit. Anyone feel strongly about either one and why?

Anyone on a statin (eg Crestor)? I’m 40/m and had elevated cholesterol last checkup. Rx Crestor and second opinion concurred. I’m still hesitant to start. I exercise, eat pretty well, don’t smoke, use alcohol. Asking for experiences not medical advice. Thanks!

it’s disgusting to see in this city how people pay more attention to the dogs homeless people have than the people themselves - it’s dehumanizing and makes me sick when people give a strained smile to the homeless person while patting their pup like come on

What's the best comms agency you've worked at where TEAMS actually communicate well?

Which agencies have the best in-house departments?

Website question: is it bad to have a few spots that are over five years old? I keep them down at the bottom and the majority are much newer so they sort of serve as a ‘best of’ my older work.

Hey editor fishes! How is 2021 starting off for everyone? I often find this time of year slow but so far I’ve been pretty busy!

Thinking about making the jump from senior level in-house to freelance. 12+ years experience. Shoot, edit, color, after effects, mix, etc. What kind of day rate could I expect in Mpls or Chi?

Roll call. How much experience? Do you staff in a boutique? An agency? Freelance? If freelance, do you usually work in agency studios, prodcos...? Do you bring on a post producer to help on big jobs?

Hi friends, any agency editors gone from editing in house to art or creative directing? If so, how? I love editing, but I see myself in a more conceptual role down the road. Thanks for any insights y’all can provide ❤️

Beginner video editing advice wanted - I’m working on a personal side gig project. As part of that, I’m recording short interviews with people currently using a camera and/or iPhone .. (cont)

EDITORS.. do you find that you work weekends on EVERY SINGLE JOB when your cutting for the first screening? No matter what the job is like, no matter how complicated or not, no matter the ship date, I find that I have to work weekends to accommodate the first screening.

Fellow editors, I’m leaving somewhere where I’ve been in-house for 5 years, and was in-house 2 other place before that. I’m realizing that while I’m excellent at my craft, I’m not an excellent freelancer. Any advice for someone striking out on their own (and not in LA/NY)?

Opinions on if it’s a bad thing to stay at one place for awhile? I’m enjoying the work and steady pay but I worry about getting totally out of the loop at other places. Before this I moved around alot

Are ad agencies typically signatories of Local 700 Agreements?

How much does a post house typically charge an advertising client for editing in NYC? Whether that’s hourly, daily, etc.

Does anyone include a bit on invoices like "Accounts not paid within terms are subject to a .75% monthly (9% annual) finance charge" or something like that?

Tangentially, has anyone had an invoice with 30-day terms kicked back for revisions because the client's terms are longer, or do they just ignore what you've stipulated?

When you do a cut and you’re super excited and proud. And then the director weighs in and it gets even better! And then... the client makes it worse. And worse again. And worser still. Sigh.
