There are a large number of people at Innocean - men and women - who are fantastic human beings and have spent an inordinate amount of time and effort fighting like hell to make the agency a better place for a long time.

Trust me.

They are the most qualified two for the job, as a female in the creative department I would not want to be put in the role just because I’m a woman.

They were not. This agency, women and men, are behind both of them.

1. Hey Innocean OP, crazy question here but I wanna ask you, Innocean OP, something important: don’t you, Innocean OP, think it’s pretty ironic that you are calling someone out for not showing their name on here when, well, “Innocean OP” and all...🤦‍♂️

2. You say these women give other women a bad name for giving their opinion? What a toxic way of thinking. Why are you dragging these women for speaking their minds? These are their opinions and their opinions are valid. They feel that way for a reason and if you look at the amount of likes their posts received, people seem to agree with them.

Your post is your opinion, which if I go by my post I must respect and I do, but it seems to me that YOU are the one giving women and men a bad name. But that’s just my opinion and all.

Well said Skip, these are the same people who are shocked and disappointed at how this was nearly swept under the rug and the reaction is essentially to save face with the media and employees. We will see who was complicit when the 100 John Does are specified if Victoria takes this all the way. It’s disappointing a female Creative was not given a chance, whether or not these guys are talented and or clean. A lot of people feel that way, even if not sharing with the people sitting behind the glass offices.

@ Innocean3 and Innocean 4 it’s sad you lack confidence in your creative abilities if given a chance, you give women a bad name. Next time you leave a positive comment for your company and its misogynists you should show your name so you can get a little high 5 from them in the hallway.

You’re defending them like you’re one of the two CDs appointed. So I guess you’d know.

Until recently i have always lives in a hand to mouth situation. Never had any savings. I am 33 and i am from India. Finished my PhD recently in the US and my wife and i make around 250 k in a tier 2 city. My standard of living has gone up but i am kind of a minimalist person. I was brought up very frugally and i think that has an impact on my spending.

Now when i spend on myself, i feel guilty thinking that i could have rather helped someone in need. Anyone have had similar experience?

What will rebounding after COVID look like? After layoffs, office closures etc. How long could it take to break back in now that networking opportunities have changed, offices are remote, hiring and positions open are limited in comparison to the numbers let go? How realistically will people not be able to reclaim a job in this industry? How long is too long of gap due to COVID and will companies ie (young recruitment teams who are naive) overlook thise gaps due to the economy?
