Working with an all IBB team as I read this...wish I could help! (I’m not IBB)

IBB? What level are you and going into? Congrats!

Don't go the IBB route into ACN strat, they agree being integrated and you don't want to get put onto that group only to be realigned immediately.

What you say realigned, do you mean they will still be a part of Acn Strat or will they move to Acn mc?

Most will migrate to Strat, but much of their work is tech program management on strategic projects. Some will end up in MC, but many are trained as "Fake Strat".

IBB founders and several of their MDs were quite strategic. Many however are not classically trained or even developed strategists. They often act as PMOs on strategic Comms industry projects. Not doing strat work, but rather key management of the project.

Many CMT strat people don't treat them as strat people, rather as process people that were acquired to get the senior people when ACN bought IBB.

I saw this recruiter make a post on LinkedIn, and I liked working with them the first time, and I want to reach out. But I don’t know what they’ll think.

Here’s a hypothetical:

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷
