I recently sign a lease. The apartment will put my security deposit into an interest-bearing account and requires me to fill out a form W9. I will join EY this June and just wondering if this is ok in terms of the independence rule. I guess the apartment will put my deposit in some sort of funds. Anyone with EY has experience? Reading the independence brochure, looks like it does not specify something related to this scenario but just wanted to confirm . TIA!

My brilliant team is being dissolved. My team is what made the work so enjoyable, not the job itself. I’m feeling pretty…stunned, I guess, and nervous about going through this again in the future.

Thoughts on Ketchum CEO /agency culture.

Does turning down a job because of timing rule you out of working for them in the future?

The annual Leo Burnett Cannes 'predictions' is a joke. It's obvious what will win based on past award shows. It's like me predicting that tomorrow will be a Friday.

Sexual harassment and self driving tech lawsuit all in one week... What's going on with Uber? Still I can't live without it. 🙄

My agency doesn’t submit for awards, and I’m not saying I’d win if they did. But as much as we say awards don’t matter, it feels like they do at a lot of places I’d like to eventually work. How difficult is it to submit on my own? Or am I better off finding a place that does submit and is willing to hire me without awards?

What os connections planning?
