Had your agency or company issued an internal or external statement on the Minneapolis murders? If so which agency? If leadership can’t call out the horrors or downplays it they don’t have what it takes to defend a good creative idea in a client meeting.

It’s shocking tonsome people to hear this but truth is that not everyone follows politics. Some of us have trauma and don’t want to reminded constantly and have checked out for their own mental wellbeing. Some people are at risk and don’t want to be reminded of the daily horrors at the door.

So unless the communications from my company are about what exactly they are going to do to solve the issue, I’d prefer the crickets. At least I don’t have to worry about retraumatization at work

Everything is political and being able to check out is a privilege.

But checking out doesn’t necessarily mean not caring. People may check out for their own sanity.

My company hasn’t issued any kind of statement, and I doubt they will. It seems like whenever something major is going on, they tend not to address it. It’s a pretty sensitive topic, so I understand why they might not want to say anything.

How is it sensitive? It’s should be discouraged not silenced

Telco PMs, how do you call that type of project in which you manage the End-To-End deployment? I mean from planning the electric connections for a servers rack, engineering the network, the cabling and devices installation, setting up the link (and everything in between)?

English is not my first language and I'm having trouble coming up with what we call "Llave en Mano" in Spanish... or is it just End-To-End? My mind is fried and is only Wednesday.

Looking for respectful ways to manage helping people in need of a job or seeking mentorship.

I’ve been laid off, I know how hard a time it is, but equally am working long hours, parenting and want to reserve time for those I know. How do others manage these extra calls into their weeks?

Hey Fishes. An early career question, Kindly take two minutes in your busy schedule to help me here? TIA!

I have been freelancing (right after graduation) for over 2 years now as a paid media strategist/ a performance marketer. In the upcoming months I wish to join an agency to get corporate exposure.

How do you determine an agency that's right fit for you. I was thinking about giving a shot at GroupM. What are your views about the agency?

Any better agencies that also accept remote roles?
