Did your company acknowledge Employee Appreciation Day on Friday? Mine did. McD's is giving customers a chance to win gift cards by sharing their experiences. Curious what they did for current employees.

Does FCB have a company rate or company login for the Ad Age or Ad Week websites? Looking for ways to get discounts on accessing their content

Can anyone give me honest feedback on what being a copywriter is like at FCB Health NY? I have an interview but looking on here all I see is *really* negative feedback, so I’m very apprehensive. Glassdoor has a lot of bad reviews too. I’m currently at a smaller agency and I like it, but getting the itch to move up in salary & have more opportunities to produce good work. Tempted by FCB for those reasons, but value work/life balance.

I kind of think people should be asked to wait until after November 15 to share their promotion news until all the agency has been given their news. As a courtesy.

Hi Folks,

will the BGC status be as 'BGC Scheduled' till day 1 ?
submitted all documents and Every section is displaying green in TCS iBegin but still status is as Scheduled only.

Curious what % of partners/MDs have spouses who also work. And regardless of non/working spouse, what do you do to feel a work/family balance?

I have a partner who routinely ignores emails or responds to them several weeks later. He has to approve every single document sent to the client or the court, which means you have a physically go to his office to ask him to review something. Half of the time you go to meet with him in person, he’s either on a call or otherwise busy. I find that this basically creates more work and makes meeting deadlines extremely difficult. Is this normal?

Why won’t AA let me book business class flights with points if they’re available to buy cash? (Qatar flight on AA site)

Any Vietnamese fish got H1B stamp recently? Mine is only valid for 1 year which I'm wondering why. Not having to worry about renewing it every year when I travel abroad is nice :(

Any vacancies in Ericsson Kolkata for RF engineer?

Looking job onsite ready to relocate.

I’m currently working with a senior level HR candidate. This individual has a doctorate in business with a focus in HR, her SPHR, Federal, and private sector experience at the singer level, and has a fabulous personality. I’m curious is anyone else having difficulties play some candidates like this? At this point I’m starting to think it’s racial or her sex based of the lack of interest in this candidate. Any thoughts?

Gary Dahl got everyone whipped into a frenzy with "Pet Rocks" and TBH that makes me believe that marketing is like a form of wizardry

What are the most common problems you see between sales and marketing? How would you resolve the issue?

My boss refuses to take my advice and update our website, which is stuck in the 2010s. Why hire a marketer if you won't allow any changes to our marketing?

What steps should I take to become a marketing manager in 4 years? I'm currently a coordinator but I'm very goal-oriented. Determined to achieve this!

Wish me luck: I just took a job at a new agency in which I'll get paid double as the creative director for a team of 30 people. I'm ecstatic, this is my dream!

Hello! I've been struggling the last few weeks because someone on my team has been taking credit for my work. This coworker is really good with buzzwords and getting the attention of upper management. I'm feeling discouraged - what should I do?

I have an interview with JP Morgan this week for a Channel Marketing Manager - VP role in the Asset Management area. The role will be based in NYC. Just curious what is the normal range for the base salary and total comp.

I am interviewing for an agency and they haven't extended any offers but want me to provide them with all sorts of documents. Is this sus or am I just overtly wary?

A creative team I started working with recently has decided to ignore my every comment. They take feedback from anyone else but me, and whenever I push them to make said changes, they just pick fights and make snarky comments. Anyone have any idea why this might be?

Can someone recommend some marketing and design blogs? I am working on a project and my creative juices just aren't flowing.

Moving into a new role to support marketing efforts of two smaller divisions under our brand umbrella. When I asked my boss what the job description was to create year end goals they told me to write one. . . Where do I start?

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer. We have a wide variety of needs but don’t necessarily need to have this future person have all these skills. For example we need someone with great copywriting skills and also need someone who is great at digital marketing. This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.

Anyone hiring for a Marketing Analyst position?

DO YOU JUST ASSUME THE COST OF YOUR MARKETING ACTIVITIES? I am looking to allocate their cost in the marketing budget in a way that won't rely on several layers of assumptions. How do you reliably estimate the cost of different marketing activities (email, social, web, etc) when you don't have specific people or tools allocated to each function and costs are spread across many channels? Ads seems the easiest, but even then there's time and overheads... I've been looking for a reliable model.

Which platform do you find best for affiliate marketing?

I joined an agency about 2 months ago and every single day I get more responsibilities, to the point that I don't even know what my actual job title is. I'm frustrated, to say the least.

What's the biggest stereotype about the marketing industry?

Looking for some UGC gigs. I can do unboxing and demos. Rates start at $100 for a video, and $20 per photo. which is significantly lower than others in the market. Just trying to get more content creation under my belt. I specialize in social media as a director in a marketing agency, so I know what will perform. Give me a holler if you need UGC for your brands! :)

I've been trying to get my foot in the door with TikTok by creating a series of content that has never been seen before.

But it's hard for me to get views because I don't know how to use SEO or social media marketing effectively.
