Mediacom 36th and 7th. Right next to Penn station and all the rushing tourists and commuters. Always around construction. Not much food selection. No parks. No real space to sit and relax outside. Perfect

Midtown East (E 40s - 50s) 🏙🌃 Seems like all 9-5 peeps and nice area in general with tons of lunch options and parks 🌳

MEC. Conveniently located above a popular restaurant called Lindy's. The building itself is a charming 1960's gem designed with brown wooden sinks, grungy staircases, cozy elevators, and office floors with ambient lighting. You may even come across a friendly cockroach or two when you're around.

I know I'm biased, but I like our midtown location at 55th and 3rd. Our office has a rooftop deck that's perfect in the summer. Let me know if you want to stop in and say hello. 🙋🏼‍♂️

How would you go about finding a remote AE role with a 100k base?

I have about 7-8 years of sales experience and have consistently out performed my OTE. I absolutely love my current role but I feel like I have out grown the company as there isn't a ton of opportunity to make more than I am currently making.

I opened up my LinkedIn to recruiters but all the offers are 60-70k base and 120-140k OTE. I am shooting for MINIMUM 80k base but ideally 100k or more.

What would you do?

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
