Hey, what’s working at Grey like these days? Going strong? Layoffs? Killing it creatively? Shark Tank?

Pros: creative work is continuing to get better and better. John and Justine are great. Winning Discover helped Grey avoid the huge bloodbaths other agencys became during Covid. Lastly, it’s mostly nice people here.

Cons: we still lost a few really good people to covid furloughs. creatives have been saddled with a lot more than the creative work for awhile now, so they’re tired. still isn’t much culture.

Overall: it’s a lottt better than most places, but far from perfect

I just got laid off from my job as a gov contractor because the project I was working on ended. I’m currently a grad student part time and was hoping to work that job until finishing grad school before applying to consulting roles. Should I go ahead and try applying for those roles now since I don’t have a job? Or should I wait since I’m still in school until next May?

Hey folks, I'm getting an offer as a SC in EY UK. Presently I'm a manager with EY India (up for SM next yr Oct 2021). Comp is 55k range (haven't officially received the figure, a few more days it's expected, doing some homework before that).

I personally don't find this offer commercially attractive. Can someone offer some counter arguments?
