Hahahah.

With things as they are, anybody have favorite delivery or pick-up spots for dinners? Cooking is fun but starting to get repetitive!

Do you think it’s a good idea to have a chat with the partner who interviewed you after starting the job? What should you talk about with the partner?

Just learned about Monte Carlo analysis thru a colleague , where can I find out about other analytic methodologies?

Strongest FS DD practices?

Does anybody else get that anxious feeling in their chest when their workload starts to pile up? When my to-do list fills up and the timelines start to get tight I really start to seize up and I think this is how I’m going to have a heart attack in my 20s.

How does one transition into big law from a small boutique WC firm? Ty

I’m in this business to cure my inferiority complex. Making lots of money, working with fortune 500 clients and walking the streets of NYC with a suit, tie and briefcase makes me feel important and worthy.

I often wish I could be like my law school friends who either moved to small towns or have public sector or non profit jobs, wear sweaters and jeans to work and make far less than me, but are happy with their lives, feel a sense of meaning with their work and don’t need external validation.

Reported a racist incident and now I'm feeling like I'm being blackballed. They are now giving my assignments to someone that works under me. How do I mange this?

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.

Team - what is the leading practice for a remote work plan with team / client?

Hi Fishes,
Need referrals for Citibank non tech role , FP&A

Much appreciated!

Where should I travel for Christmas? Looking for adventure and going to travel with other couples. Hoping to use points (delta/ spg)

Hi Fish Fam!!! My BF and I just arrived to Ibiza for three nights and would love some recommendations! We would love to turn up! 😀 Thanks in advance!!

Leaving EY in a week. Is there anything specific I should do/ save before leaving?

I find it insane that recruiters have been calling me on Teams. How is that ok and not seen as disruptive?

Barton F. Graf what’s a girl gotta do?
My portfolio is coming for you!! 👍

Can we really just not with April Fools ads? So cringe inducing, so bandwagon-y, so god damn corny & depressingly expected...🤢

Are there any folks out there who moved from Europe (as in Amsterdam) to the States? And if yes: to where? Thinking about moving towards the big adventure.

How much does it cost the agency for a cannes entry?

Having the clients love an idea you had to fight to present is a bittersweet win- you feel validated, but also wish your team backed you from the start...anyone else experience this?

I just want to write one weird/funny commercial. That's it. Then I can quit this business. Why is this so fucking hard?

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❤️

Didn’t know who the CCO is when I was asked about it in an interview... is there anything I can do to redeem myself? I feel like I really dropped the ball on this lol

What's the best website that lists out current agency client rosters? (I've seen this before on FB but can't find the thread. FB - please add search functionality!!)

It took the horrific and completely inexcusable death of George Floyd to move the racism issue to the forefront. And while it’s a crime of a much lesser degree, with different circumstances, what’s it going to take to get ageism properly addressed? Intelligent thoughts/debate requested only please.

Which agencies in NY do great strategy work and are actually valued? It feels like strategy is lacking at most agencies...

Mccann creatives - what are the good groups?

Thoughts on Facebook as an employer? Do they pay well? Interesting / fun work? How limiting is the horizontal reporting structure?

Whomever is doing the tv placement for Advocate Healthcare in Chicago: do you have to have the ad going every other commercial? If I hear “come on get healthy” one more time, I’m leaving the state.

So Q1 has been abnormally weak for agencies across the board, right? Is it fair to say Trump is finally starting to effect the economy?

Can I start season 4 of Halt & Catch Fire without watching seasons 1,2, 3? (Heard this is the only great season)

Are there any solid recruiters in SF?

Manager texted me at ~10pm asking for a non-critical update. I chose not to respond (until morning) because I don't want to allow a bad habit to form. Thoughts?
