condolences to the people who have been let go from horizon media (started yesterday)

Hi folks

I am currently serving notice of 2 months and left with 15 more days. Suddenly my HR contacts me that they want to relieve me in 2 days when it was agreed mutually at the time of resignation that they want me to serve full notice. I do not want an early release. What should I do now?

Please help with your suggestions

Hello everyone!
I am 25 years old. Worked as a Tax consultant in International tax for a year. Later shifted to VAT and worked there for another year. Now I am thinking to join M&A. While one side I am glad that I am trying something new and having a diverse experience but again I feel I am becoming Jack of all and Master of None. Any advice is appreciated

I’ve been working for my State Farm agency as a team member for 2 years. I am licensed in property and casualty as well as life and health, but only make $13 an hour. I technically can make bonuses but I’m not supposed to dig into a sale and I have to send it to a sales rep (I am service and retention mostly). My boss also has me running a retired agents office until a new one is chosen (its an hour away with no pay increase or mileage pay). Also, no benefits! Should I start job searching?

Is direct lending/private credit technically buy side?

Let’s all agree on some collective self care this week - NO early morning meetings or client deliverables the day after the election. Perhaps we extend these rules this whole week. K? Great. 😅

What’s the worst advice you’ve ever gotten in this business?

Mine, as an account person: “You should take more credit for the creative that’s presented.”

A little over a year ago, I posted about my boss making constant comments about my salary. Most comments said I must not have been performing well. I want to update that he was fired, not me.

I’m considering making a jump from planner to analyst. Thoughts? Anything I should know?

Calling all tech obsessed 🐠! Thoughts on Chromebooks? My mom needs a new laptop and absolutely loves the simplicity / app-based nature of her iPhone, but I can't afford to buy her a Mac. TIA!

Pretty tired of smart women undermining each other, especially seniors doing it to juniors. Why the hell is the first instinct to attack&destroy? Not into kumbayas but more into having my peer's back.

Manager texted me at ~10pm asking for a non-critical update. I chose not to respond (until morning) because I don't want to allow a bad habit to form. Thoughts?

I’m feeling drained. Unmotivated, uninspired, & bored. My job takes all of my mental energy, but I can’t start looking for anything new yet. Any advice on how to handle a job that makes you miserable?

Well, we were the only team on a pitch. We won and still have to hear my boss complaining about me.

Is anyone else having trouble just BEING back at the office… for a full day? Even if it’s hybrid. It’s like driving me insane just sitting here in silence and making small talk from 9-5:30. I feel so trapped.

Okay let's say I got a job in the marketing department at Netflix. Would it be a plus to have a company like them on my resume, or make it harder to get back into an agency later on?

What agency is doing the new Twizzler ads?

Hypothetically, what might happen, if Strat said to fishbowl they needed a virtual hug? Other than CD potentially saying something snarky and mean ...hypothetically only.
