Friday news dump. Leo Burnett Detroit has shuttered. Everyone laid off.

Hi,

Is this a good time to join HP? As they have recently announced 6000 layoffs in 2 years.

Hello All,
I got selected in kpmg india and its been more than a month ,I hv not been alloted any project, what should i do ,should i keep my options open outside?do they lay off?

For people going through layoffs right now. It's really hard. But pro tip: sit down and write your obituary assuming you live to be 100. Helps so much to really see this is nothing but a blip. ❤️

Has Deloitte tax heard anything about layoffs yet? Just saw the news about audit

The week of my wedding, my husband (PL SQL Developer 4 yoe) was laid off. That was a couple of weeks ago. Luckily I'm still bringing money in as a software engineer, but I'm looking for advice on how to support a partner who has been laid off. Ultimately I think we will be ok, but I know he's hurting / stressed / and could use a supportive partner.

Has anyone ever been "let go of"? Either laid off or fired. How did you get through it?

After you are stealth laid off, other than job search, what do you do? I assume they won’t give you work and even if they do, you can politely decline? How do you feel about you are not progressing anymore and seeing other people progressing in their career? I have no intention to make partner, but still feel a bit stuck not doing that much.

Lots of people leaving WK Portland it seems. Layoffs or voluntarily?

Hi all,

I have one question -coming 2023 year maybe recession hit worldwide economy. Can we worried as a accenture employee? Any news for mass layoff for recession?

Layoff List; Agency, Location, Departments, Number of Layoffs. Post Away.

Need advice and pep talk because I’m certain I have chronic imposter syndrome :( Background on me, I have about 6 years of work experience post college but have gone through many companies because of layoffs and/or reorgs. With that, I’ve bounced a lot with different industries and have done different roles for a year max. My current role is about to be my longest (thank goodness, hitting about 2 years) but I feel like I’m not a SME in anything but I feel embarrassment for myself (Cont.)

Is it good to hpe seeing current layoffs. Is there good work life balance? Job security?

Remember one thing - If some companies are laying off employees then it's equally a good chance for the other companies to get talented resource . Here things will remain balanced mostly and there's no need to fear . Not all companies do layoff at the same time. You may end up getting a 100% hike too. Just believe in yourself and focus on your skillset, time to brush up and pull up your socks. Stay safe , stay positive !

As a customer screamed “I’m going to get you fired!” I thought “thank you, that would be wonderful.” That’s when I realized it was time for a change. What was your last straw?

Cyber Security and 1yr experience

Hi! Recently discussed an associate graphic designer role with a recruiter. Is it reasonable to expect an 85k base in NYC? Am I underselling myself? They started with it being a 75-80k budgeted position. What are typical base salaries for someone with 4.5 ttl YOE? Does it matter that 3 YOE was in an adjacent industry?

Any BCG Platinion Cyber folks here?
What kinna work do you guys do? Planning to make the switch after 5 years with Uncle D. Wanna hear from you guys about culture, projects and areas of expertise.

When renting a condo from an owner, I was asked to pay a $150 move-in fee to the building which I thought makes sense, but then I am being told to also pay a $500 non refundable move in fee to the owner but he is not wanting a security deposit. Is this normal? Seems like $500 down the drain but not sure if this is normal

I’m feeling anxiety about Coronavirus. Does anyone else think that the virus is being used by the government for population control? I don’t know if I’m paranoid.

Who hires junior strategists? Where should I start looking? I’m loving my planning internship right now, but I want to apply elsewhere in case I don’t get an offer, but I’m not seeing anything open.

I Want to maintain engagement and morale on a long project and staring an MS Teams Channel to post recognition and engagement events with staff. Stumped on what to call it… any suggestions? So far “Good news and more” is all I got. TIA

Anyone else buy a lunch box only to use shopping bags instead? I can’t be the only one. Lunchbox has been empty in my trunk for the last year. Used it maybe 3 times.

I feel like a lot of branded content goes by the wayside and has 0 shelf life ... are there any good examples that cut through and had some longevity?

Sitting at home today staring at crypto charts ... can't wait to see what happens come August 1! Eek.

How are things at Zenith these days? Recruiters have been reaching out to me frequently regarding roles there - that can either be a good or a very bad sign.

Does anyone know of any agencies creating great social content? Small or big shops, with some fashion and beauty work in their portfolio?

What pop culture made you want to work in advertising and/or in a major city?

Anyone know the recruiters for Twitter?

Just got promoted to ACD. Will be taking on more leadership roles. Any books, workshops, resources that helped you learn leadership skills?

How much of a pay cut would you be willing to take if you got an offer for your dream job (if it's outside of advertising)?

🐠 Would you rather work on award winning next level creative with zero work life balance or churn out mediocre work and have a healthy work life balance?

Does anyone here have a Peloton? I really want one but it's almost $3k all in so want to make sure I would use it!

Was told I was going to get hired after my freelance contract finished up (which is next month), the head hancho creative person even called me up offering a full time job, praising me, all that . But…it’s been a couple months and they won’t respond to my messages even tho I’m still freelancing here lol what do I do

The annual Leo Burnett Cannes 'predictions' is a joke. It's obvious what will win based on past award shows. It's like me predicting that tomorrow will be a Friday.

Who's tired of millennial pink and its pukey name?? 🙋🏻
