Each creative has multiple CDs with competing priorities yet gets shifted around due to whatever the ECD is currently frantically panicking about. Do others experience this? Chicago... who's hiring?

Sounds like you've got too many CDs and not enough worker bees. Who gives you your review? That's your supervisor, and that's whose opinion/needs you prioritize.

No, it's not like that everywhere.

They definitely need more worker bees. The number of CDs is probably appropriate. But they seem convinced they should operate this way whether due to budget constraints or not knowing any better. It hasn't changed in the time I've been there. I just don't want to switch if I should expect this elsewhere.

Hang in there. Layoffs are coming. Shops can't have too many CDs for ever

Recently accepted a temp role as an HR admin for a former employer. Previously interned there & left because my supervisor did not have any growth opportunities planned out for me; this was in spite of my stellar performance, as reflected in my 90 day review. She has since left the company, but there’s crazy turnover in the company & in the HR department in particular. Just that an HR coordinator resigned. Is it worth going back into a dumpster fire w/ no leadership to gain experience?
