Has anyone left PwC while they still had an outstanding Educational Support Program repayment agreement? What is the repayment process like? Am I required to pay back the amount in full the day I leave the firm or is there the ability to do a repayment agreement? I’m looking at new opportunities and would like to have my new firm take on the amount of the tuition agreement ($14,000) but don’t know how much that might limit my options.
Just a lil something to smile 😊

If you arent vaccinated then why?

It’s your job. You get paid. Just present it, unless you are ethically opposed to its contents.
This is the way.
Play the game. Act like this is the best deck in the history of decks and you’re excited to pitch it. Pass go. Collect $200.
Your boss is giving you an opportunity because he or she thinks you'd do well on that stage, and your response is to...complain and decline?
Pro
CDs, ECDs and CCOs present work that their teams did all the time. It’s just sometimes part of the job. Unless this deck’s full of like racist diatribes, I’d say just do your best. Voice it over in your own words.
What's the context? Is it a pitch to win a new account? Sometimes agencies want to put more engaging speakers with better "room energy" at there. What's the status of the person who created the deck? The few times I was asked to do this I would, at a minimum: say that I would be making adjustments to anything I didn't fully align with in the content and b) make it clear that I was presenting "agency team" work, not my personal work product. I worked in digital strategy and only was asked to do this a few times if it was pitch work. Often whoever put the deck together was aligned to other accounts and couldn't be part of the pitch, couldn't/didn't want to travel for the pitch, my resume and background aligned better to the prospect, etc. Outside of pitches it was a rare ask, usually because whoever had worked on the deck had quit, that sort of thing.
Why dont you want to present it?
They value you for your presentation skills and personality in front of a room. That’s why you’re being asked. Sometimes the best deck builders and creatives and strategists have skills better suited to sitting behind a computer, not standing in front of one.
