It's not groundbreaking but I have actually enjoyed the thought behind the Tim's ad.

The insight rings true and the execution is nice. For a brand that sometimes makes cringe-y stuff, it's good

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?

Been in the strat game for over a decade; I’ve realized that a strong department with clear process that is built on end to end problem solving (with time to think) is when I’m happiest vs this award show / case study grind.

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).

Maybe I’m just out of touch being in this career for so long.
