Do you find more support at larger agencies or smaller agencies? My background is with larger agencies, I'm wondering if I would receive better projects at smaller ones.

I have wondered about this too, it's easy to be just a number at a large agency, but I do like having recognizable names on my resume & portfolio

Depends on the team, IMO at smaller agencies, I find that my manager has more say to speak up for me rather than at larger ones.

i actually just left my small/medium sized agency due to lack of support & advocacy from my manager. micro aggressions also would happen way too often to be tolerable. i was also one of the only black people on the team. it definitely depends on the agency.

I no longer have access to the Microsoft bowl due to the change in work email address, so I thought I'd see if any Microsoft management (former or current) are in here. I'm looking to confirm that when potentially coming back on at Microsoft, the hiring manager will be able to see my previous connects. I had a great experience at Microsoft, and would like to keep that door open in my mind, though my last connect has what I would call unfair characterizations due to a unique chain of events.

Hello! What is the best way to structure a discovery call for SaaS sales? e.g. share a deck, only focus on their use case (current state, goals, pain, etc.), share a story, etc. Lastly, how do you go further than surface level, like if they mention they are having issues with xyz, which is usually a symptom of the problem and not the problem itself. Any info would be appreciated, thanks.
