If I switch from AFS to LLP in Accenture, can I re-negotiate salary?

JPMC fishes, have a worrying thought, have you heard cases of offer being revoked or any slowdown you see in hiring ? With the current market conditions it is worrying to have just 1 offer in hand. Any insights on this would be helpful.

Met this guy through friends a few years back. He made me feel really special, told me he was going through a bad patch with his gf at that point. Things happened between us in a couple of months and

How do you all manage to still plan fun dates? I’m an immigrant and grew up with very few friends due to a poor neighborhood, then only had time to work my butt off in my teens and early 20s. So, I never gained the dating and social skills of others. Somehow I managed to marry and love my wife but I SUCK at planning dates. Can only do so many restaurants, bars, and walks in the park 🥲

I never received any information in requesting a discussion about comp, is it too late.

What is the difference between B2C and B2B planning? I tend approach strategizing on b2b projects with the same mindset. But I see folks out there who specialize in B2B. Can you help me understand the nuances?

Would you rather work at a management consultancy, traditional agency, or a hybrid? Why?

I hate when you have to communicate three separate things in one campaign strategy.

Looking for recommendations to generally upskill my Strategy work (or learn from scratch) — be it courses, classes, books, podcasts, people to follow.

For context, I’m a freelance Social Media Manager/Strategist and I came into Ad world via Startups. Throwing myself into learning on the job with more Strategy gigs - but I still don’t feel like I quite know the lingo or best practices or theories.

Anyone interested in purchasing a SXSW Film badge at the early bird special cost of $895?

I’m looking to pick up some part-time freelance projects. I live in Canada but am open to working with any company anywhere. I’m strong in brand, campaign, and digital planning. I’m not great with TikTok. If anyone needs an extra hand, please send me a note!

Do any of you find that your brand teams are trigger happy when it comes to doing workshops? I find that whenever someone isn’t sure about something, there’s any instant desire for a 1-2 day workshop that Strategy leads. I love workshops, but doing them constantly is horribly exhausting.

Has anyone here made the transition from brand planning to more of a UX strategy type role at a design company?

Strats, what are your thoughts on how personality “types” influence what makes a good strategist? If you had to choose, would you rather work with an introvert or an extrovert? (Continued below...)

Maybe it’s just me but I feel like I see those commercials for Safelight car window repair 9 zillion times a day. That annoying jingle. I don’t get it. How often are people getting their windshields replaced. I’ve been driving for nearly 30 years and have never replaced a windshield.

Any emails newsletters you swear by?

Does anyone hire strategists fresh out of school/internships? Seems like there aren’t any entry level jobs out there!

What do you think are the skill jumps you need to see from a strategist/planner to make the leap from senior to assoc. director/director level?
