“I had my manager laid off”. That’s some serious main character energy.
Well the writing craft clearly needs work.
Some of us dream of this
Text me or inbox me privately via (786) 902-2003 for more details and information about the position if you don’t mind. Thank you!

Happened to me at Dentsu. They used it as an excuse to “lose” my annual review and deny me a raise and or bonus. Then I got to float around the agency until they got their sh!t together and assigned me to a new manager who barely talked to me for the first few months. Fun times.
What’s the deal with GUT? I’ve seen so many people work there for a few months and then get laid off
So can you just take days off when you want?
We used to have 3 Creative Directors and an ECD in our office. We now have 1 CD and 0 ECDs.
Guess which position has absorbed all that work without any increase in pay?
Get ready to work with your director!
Or ready to work with the holdco CCO

To be clear: I had a situation where my manager was laid off. I wasn't the one who arranged to have them laid off.
Too late! I was laid off recently. Hahahahaha
I was in a similar situation at a small agency but it was even more effed up. My manager quit without telling me. I found out after bumping into a drunk coworker on the PATH train one night. He said he was coming from my manager’s going away party. So the next day, pissed off, I asked the company president who I was supposed to report to. He told me that I would report to him. He was let go 2 weeks later. I quit soon thereafter. Only good thing about that job was that I got to work with the guy who plays Santa every year in the Macys parade. Funny fact: the Macys Santa is married to another Mr. Claus. Hope I made you laugh!
Pretty much same here and no plans to rehire… enjoy it?
Why did you do that to your manager?
Budget cut. I was supposed to get laid off. But I had to take a pay cut. Another staff just resigned. So hopefully the pay cut doesn’t go through.
This same thing happened to me. I’m now doing their job and I predict by spring, the GCD’s job too.
