Need all opinions I can get. Interviewing at a place, and there are a few flags. (Details in 1st comment)

I’ve heard hiring really tapers off between Thanksgiving and New Years. If that’s true, when does it usually pick back up? I’ve been interviewing for industry jobs for a month now (I think I’m using the wrong recruiter), and I’m getting worried I’ll be stuck for busy season.

Can someone give me high level description of the quant portion of your case @BCG to give me a sense of what to expect in interviews

I have 4 years of experience in pega testing (manual). Now want to move into pega development but not getting chance within Accenture. Is it good decision to prepare on my own for pega development and start giving interviews outside?

Does receiving a ‘Does Not Meet Expectations’ on year-end review with no other next steps - In this environment - basically mean I’m on the chopping block? Should I start job hunting?

Would you take a freelance gig that would be a promotion (with potential to join full time) with a smaller company whose values you really agree with, OR a full-time offer for a lateral move with a larger company with teammates you know and trust? Of course factoring in all the nuances of covid. TIA!

I do things (late nights/weekends) that I don't think my managers/partner knows about since everything is running well - directly correlated with elected hours spent. Is it weird to bring this up?

Just negotiated my lease down another 5%. Went down 4% last year too. Probably means I could’ve pushed harder last year, but still nice.

I said this in a reply to a comment but, Marcel is making Publicis Groupe into a network of freelancers....

Is possible to have "real friends" in the ad world? Do you trust your coworkers or do you feel that they are going to throw you under the bus just to save their asses?

Fo you guys respond to emails on PTO? So far I've gotten my inbox blown up the first two days of my vacation with "urgent" emails and emergencies. starting to resent literally everything.

If one more ECD tells me to think of ways to hack social platforms, I'm going to go insane.

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

Are there any agencies where creatives actually have good work-life balance in LA, SF or anywhere else for that matter? Like no weekends or no working more than a 40-50hr week? Or do I have to go in house for this? Or do I have to leave advertising altogether?

I feel like I’m either getting burnt out by work or trying to heal myself from it. There’s never much time for real life and I don’t want to be on my death bed reminiscing like, “Wow, I made some cool ads.” Nothing scares me more.

Shoutout to account peeps ready to explain why, actually, it isn't that much work and, actually, EOD tomorrow is plenty of time.

O&M Creative: more shuffling still to come? And by shuffling, I mean layoffs too.
