Has anyone heard of/ have insights on Brooks International? 👍👎

Apparently they are recruiting project managers and talk a big game about "amazing comp," but wanted the 🦈 perspective.

Interviewed with then 3 year ago for an M lvl ( I was an SA back then). Seemed a bit disorganized, did a Skype interview I think with the CEO who seemed a bit disheveled.

Being a smaller shop, I suspect that projects may be scarce. Could be lesser work life balance then B4 ( they probably do M-F travel based on Glassdoor reviews). I don’t think their salaries will be any better then B4. ‘Amazing comp’ may be referring to higher bonus % than Big4s, but their base comp will be lower, so it may net out. Also, based on their comp on Glassdoor, it seems like D comp aligns with and M comp at Big 4. So you may want to go for a level higher.

Am I crazy to take a pay cut to “chase my dream”? Manager looking to leave Bain - I want to do corporate sustainability - I got an offer for a traditional corp strategy job at $195k base, $23k bonus (no longer-term incentives aka no equity / profit sharing), so similar to current comp except for NAP, but am hoping something sustainability-related comes through. Right now in talks for a sustainability director role that would be closer to $160k base / $20k bonus. (More in comments)

Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?

So I have this really strange satiation. I was asked to review a service agreement, and some attachments, governing website design and hosting client is buying.

The total deal is only $5,000 (which is an insanely good deal) but the time to fix these documents is going to exceed that. How would you deal with this?

I don't know who needs to hear this, but I have a few former classmates and colleagues sweating over lateral interviews. Take a deep breath and relax.

First, doing these interviews does not define you as a person.

Second, take it one day at a time; if they are moving forward, they see something in you.

Third, remember that the people interviewing you are human beings. Connect with them, be personable.
