Goodwin hired Ben Shapiro out of HLS after he had already become a well-known right wing provocateur and after the publication of his first two books, both of which received national press coverage: “Brainwashed: How Universities Indoctrinate America’s Youth” and “Porn Generation: How Social Liberalism is Corrupting Our Future.”

Hope this helps.

Weird thing to post here, are you involved in recruiting at a competitor firm? Grow up. Goodwin is almost over-the-top liberal, one isolated hire of a law student years ago notwithstanding (it feels ridiculous even typing that out)

I was working for ad agency here in Minneapolis and they reached out to me on LinkedIn without a job description saying that they wanted a seasoned digital project manager which I am. I accepted the offer and started working for this agency and now 6 months in they are asking me also do Wireframes and Content planning together with a project manager role as their team is super small and they do not have dedicated ux/ui and seo members in place.I said that is not my part of the job and parted.

I am interviewing for a new IT Manager position. I started putting out soft feelers and then hit the hunt harder. The problem: I have one offer and need to give an answer by next Wednesday. I have two other opportunities that are in final steps but probably won’t have offers by next Wednesday. Both of the other offers will be higher pay but clearly are uncertain for offers. Do I accept the offer I have, which is a good one or wait for the other two to finalize and possibly miss out altogether?

Can someone please help me understand the work life balance in Sapient?

I went through multiple posts wherein people are saying all good things, but one thing is bad in almost all of the posts and that is - WLB.

People are saying that almost all the employees works under pressure in Sapient and there is no job security.

FP&A can play a larger role as an "influencer"

Any thoughts ?

Is it okay that I’ve been a slow junior as we’re hours away from closing? I’m trying to be proactive and available to cross things off the list but I’m SLOW: takes me long enough that they do it themselves (even though this wasn’t an issue earlier in the deal) and even on quick tasks or emails, they respond to it before I can click send. There’s also so much about closing that I don’t understand and I feel like I’m bothering the higher-ups on the team whenever I ask. *end anxiety post*
