Hey Innocean peeps… any hot takes from the home office on the martial law/potential coup situation happening in North Korea right now?

Working on a regular desk and my laptop has been killing my back and neck for last few years. Finally spent a couple hundred dollars on a standing desk, wireless keyboard, and back/neck heating pad to alleviate the pain. Very hopeful working will be much better now.

Can anyone recommend a good office chair for less than $100?

Anyone using your tv as a second monitor these days? Any advice on doing this wirelessly or without a giant HDMI cord going across my living room? I tried chrome cast and I don’t want to just mirror my screen, I need a dedicated second monitor. Thanks!

Can someone recommend a good printer for home office use? I need something I can print 10-20 pages per day on. My law school printer is on its last leg.

Joining a big firm next week as fully remote lateral and flying out to home office for orientation. The schedule has me in office until 4:15. I’ve already been told I won’t have any actual work. Depending on how many people are there and how it feels, I was planning to stay an hour extra but should I hang around the office until later? First time visiting this city so it’d be great to take in some sights too (although that’s not a priority of course).

Thinking about going independent and operating out of my home office. Does anyone have any thoughts to share about that? I’m wondering about clients coming to my home and FINRA issues.

Steel Case vs Herman Miller

Is Herman Miller the undeniable winner in the office chair market or is Steel Case a contender for first?

Has anyone had their LCA location updated so they can work from a different remote work location than their home office city? Did your firm take care of the process for you?

Wow. I finally got a standing desk and it is LIFE changing 🫶

Is anyone’s wfh office chair getting less “springy” over time? Mine just doesn’t have the same umph it had before, constantly lowering throughout the day.

Favorite office chair?

Trying to avoid paying an accountant, can I actually write off home office space/mileage if I was just permalancing for 3 months last year? Shouldn’t the 7 months of W2 take care of this 1099 shit?

Damn I miss my life before the pandemics (the home office part can stay, though).

What monitors would you recommend for home office? I am about to buy one myself. I work in FDD. Do you guys recommend the ultra wide? Curve screen? freesync?And what definition is good enough ? I really do love Apple Retina display but the price.

Recommendations for office chair , I have a bad back and need lumbar support.

How did you get started in your career as an FA? I work in the home office and have been an assistant to an FA before. I have a network, I have ambition, I have credibility and connections at my firm..

Have you ever tried to bring about a change/stood up for something at home/office etc. Did it succeed/fail? How was the experience?

What are the companies I can switch from Eli Lilly? Can I try for product based companies like Amazon and Uber?

Is it normal for a Product Owner to lay out specs for how a feature should work?

I thought that was my job as the ux designer to figure out the best way to solve a need. But I’m getting handed projects where the PO, and sometimes the senior designer has laid out exactly what should happen (components used, flow, etc) to design a feature. It’s really frustrating because I don’t know if I’m supposed to be speaking up on what I think or just do the UI work I’m asked to.

Fishes,

Hi fishes. Need advice. What is highest salary for senior business analyst in Credit Suisse India, Bangalore branch? Thanks.

I survived the cull and consider myself lucky for that.

Anyone who hasn't, please post here with your background and industry alignment.

I'm sure many others on here would be willing to put you in touch with personal contacts to help you get back in employment.

Now more than ever, remember that this too shall pass.

I’m currently an HR specialist and trying to decide what I want my future to look like. I would like to step away from the transactional, administrative HR work. I’m fascinated by employee satisfaction and like the idea of helping to improve retention and leveraging metrics to improve toxic work environments (I’ve seen a fair share of dysfunction in my career). I’m thinking the Consultant route may be best for this. Any other thoughts of roles or titles that may align?

I need reference for Scrum master .I'm from Delhi NCR.Let me know if there any opening in your organisation for the same.Ill share my resume with you

After you moved in-house, how did you get more comfortable reviewing contracts or counseling on issues you weren’t super familiar with? I was very specialized at my law firm and took a similarly specialized role in-house….but I still get requests to mark-up types of agreements that I never touched at my firm. I’ve been trying to find CLEs to get up to speed, but I’m wondering if this is generally something that gets more comfortable with time…

In 2018, I founded a boutique ODD advising firm with a primary client base in healthcare and biopharma. I am now transitioning from FT consulting through my firm and exploring new opportunities.

I have over 25 years’ experience in healthcare and oncology clinical research. While I’ve worked in a variety of business entities, my preference is start-up to mid-size. If there are any HCLS/health tech companies looking for an exp. professional that can hit the ground running, I’d love to chat.

Here for the week. Anyone free? 26M

What are some ways that you’ve created urgency or rebuilt momentum in a deal cycle where it was otherwise lost? (E.g. customer ghosting you)

What kind of interviews can I expect from Infosys as a java dev with 3.5 YOE?

You ever have one of those days where nothing is going your way, and then you buy some ice cream to bring home, and then the ice cream falls on the floor?

Mullen Lowe...opinions/thoughts/ gripes/praise?

The Budweiser commercial was the bravest one of all the SB spots I’ve seen. Standing up for America takes courage when we’re constantly told how horrible America is.

Any recommendations on websites / blogs / inspiration to learn more about digital capabilities, campaigns, or trends?

Those that have pivoted/are considering pivoting out of advertising, what are you doing now/interested in doing?

Would you work 11-8 shift?

How long do you really think you’ll stay in advertising? What does your career trajectory look like? I was recently asked and it took me by surprise for a second tbh. The most obvious answer was “work my way up to CD.” But what about becoming a super seasoned and experienced creative forever? 🤷‍♀️

What should you do if they don’t put your name on the credits of work that is yours? Anybody’s had this experience?

Given the outbreak, are places actually going to be hiring right now? Recently laid off from 9-5 and my freelance is starting to fizzle.

Any thoughts on Analog Folk?

Project Managers and Accounts folks - what are the opportunities for growth at your agency? How do you advance? Better title + salary? Better work/client/projects? How are you supported by superiors?

Chicago folks - favorite creative agency? Looking to make a move.

Ok, so what’s a content creator?

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?

Anyone know a good resource on briefing for a logo design project?

So I was laid off. Is it okay to talk about it at my next job interview? Feels like everyone knows anyway.

Anyone have a recommendation for books or resources on upping my sales game? Open to in person class, online class, books, etc!

Has anyone been able to negotiate anything extra or terms when being laid off?

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people. Account people should have a good understanding of how much effort and time goes into a project. Project Managers are missing a lot of context so blind leading blind.

Dear marketing people on LinkedIn, if you refer to yourself as a “disruptor, challenger, thought leader, rainmaker, catalyst or architect,” you’re most likely none of those.
