Has anyone ever freelanced on a Holdco account, where they went in and it was a 180 on expectations? Like showing up to a meeting where 14 people were in the room, only 3 spoke for an hour, but they billed the entire hour at 14 x the blended hourly? And it happened 2-3 times a week and client was none the wiser?

Starting a new mobile app build (greenfield project) - target to start is iOS, but may expand to Android in ~2 years time and we will need a web experience (though not necessarily the same set of functionality).

What mobile frameworks are you using, and are you finding them productive? Team is considering React Native and Flutter, and I'm just looking to hear what's working for you / what you wished you'd done differently.

Received an offer for a Project Delivery Specialist II in GPS. Are all Project Delivery types tied to PDM? Is it possible to negotiate the track prior to onboarding? I’m on the fence after reading all of the threads suggesting to avoid. However, ideally, I’m really only looking for a year 1/2 engagement before industry or grad. I just want to keep my options open if needed. Any insight is greatly appreciated. TIA!

How long do you stay in a rut vs. GTFO? As of Oct. I was involved on every project on my account, feeling valuable. My director has slowly been pulling me off projects & I’m feeling my brain get rusty

Hi IBM sharks 😊

So I joined IBM in May 2022 and was on bench for 5.5 months since then.I will be allocated to a project next week. Also my probation got confirmed a week back.

I have following queries-
1)With me joining a project so late, can I expect a Variable Pay in March 2023?
2)The manager told me I have flexibility to choose 2-11 shift or work in morning as everyone is flexible here. What must I do officially to get that monthly shift allowance?

Any inputs r highly appreciated guys 😊

Random 2 cents thought: It would do us good to admit some of the good work or positive qualities of people we oppose politically. It forces us to tamper down our biases

Currently a manager in Deloitte digital aligned with Salesforce GTM/Alliances/Implementation. Had a successful few years in Saas sales leading a small inside team to acquisition. Looking to get back in the sales game, miss the flexibility and the earnings potential. Do any fine folk here have line of sight into a company/role that would be a solid transition opportunity? Thank you!

Anyone do a lot of minimally invasive surgery and use blue light glasses? I’m wondering if they’ll help with the eye strain from staring at a screen doing laparoscopies all day.

Hypothetically, what might happen, if Strat said to fishbowl they needed a virtual hug? Other than CD potentially saying something snarky and mean ...hypothetically only.

What do CDs look for on a resume? What would you expect to see on an art directors resume? Do things change if applying to agencies versus in-house?

Considering taking a Jr CW job in pharma in NYC after being on the job hunt for 9 months. I’m terrified of getting stuck, but I also want to switch to brand strategy. Chances of escaping if I hate it?

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.

Are there any solid recruiters in SF?

Feel free to call out any top talent from an agency not listed above.

What was your most amazing day in advertising?

In NYC going from Junior CW to Mid at same agency. Currently making 72k. How much to shoot for?

VMLY&R merged with Geometry, to develop the "most powerful commerce capability and ad agency at global scale", who's worked with them because this seems like a stretch based on my experience with both.

Are Droga or Anomaly open to sponsoring work visas for mid-senior folks outside of the US?

Working with another agency on a project and think I'd rather work there. Protocol for reaching out to someone to pick their brain? Email? LinkedIn message?

Facebook shutting down Oculus Story Studio... VR dead?

Love the role and opportunity, but anyone ever turn down a job offer because their prospective office looked like crap? Think 1980's old school office.

Like this post if you want to TP one of Sir Martin's houses with me.

Hey. An observation. Every post and comment on here for the past month has been negative as fuck. Yes, life is rough right now. But advertising as a paying job is hilarious and we should all take a beat to remember that.

Did anyone else 'fishbowl' cars in high school?
