I left my previous job on very, very bad terms. Should I be upfront about the situation while my new offer is checking my work experience? Or simply hope it doesn't come up?

No! All the previous employer can confirm is dates worked and would you be eligible for rehire. Most just check dates and references. I would NOT flag it, just move on. If it comes up then just say it wasn’t a good fit and I’m happy to provide references upon request. Keep it simple. Don’t over-think it.

Sounds good!! This input is so helpful!

Agree. Don’t tell them. Higher probability that it will back fire on you than the probability that they will find out. What happened tho 👀

CTR, contracts and department overhaul

our marketing dept is undergoing a complete overhaul. under old leadership, a $75k 12-mo contract was signed to a marketing group that handles our SEO, blog and everything Google Ads. All things I can and am in training to do. Current CTRs on G ads seem pitiful at no more than 0.75%. My meta ads coast around 4-6%. During this overhaul, would it be wise to not renew our contract, and negotiate for me to take over these roles and leverage a raise?
