I contracted there for 8 months until I got converted to full time. I'd 100% do it unless you've already worked for a big tech company before or if you're weighing it against a great FT offer elsewhere. Definitely no guarantee of being converted but you'll stand to learn a ton just from being inside the mothership

I came in quite mid level from ad agencies so my contractor rate was good but not crazy (b/c it's what I asked for). When I got converted, to make me a level 5 my total comp was astronomical compared to advertising. I think almost triple my previous total comp

Are there books/articles/classes that unpack high level scenarios? Any particular agencies that are masterfuI at this? Don't think I need to get into the nitty gritty of media buying but it'd help to understand basic principles
