I only spent a couple months with the company in the NYC office, so I can’t really speak to the long term. But from my experience, they were great. Office culture was really inviting and lax, if a little bit boring—the office didn’t have any of the fancy ad agency bells and whistles, but it was certainly VERY comfortable. Work/life balance for me was great. Typical advertising spikes in work sometimes but nothing worth pulling my hair out. My management personally was fantastic, and my team was extremely organized and well-oiled. I got an offer at another agency I wanted to explore and left after only 5 months, but everyone was extremely understanding and supportive when I have my two weeks, and offered me a spot back should I ever want it.

It has been 2+ weeks since I completed the Interview & Psychometric Assessment rounds with Macquarie Group , but yet to hear anything from them. I also followed up with HR but with no response. For the record, the interview went well. Any idea if they usually take this amount of time to get back? If I got rejected, why not communicate directly?

Hello All,

Have a few questions regarding IBM Joining, HR response is strangely lacking and so does in the slack(prejoin channels). Hoping can be cleared here..
a) I've been told virtual onboarding is no longer a thing.
How many days does in-person onboarding activities occur?
b) HR Informed,"After onboarding is complete, can get perm WFH based on project or extension of WFH as IBM is flexible"
Is this true? Can managers extend/grant remote for a month then let us transit to remote model?
