I noticed at pattern amongst people who are very vocal on LinkedIn or position themselves as LinkedIn influencers. They job hop a lot with tenures being very short (a year and a half tops). They are such an interesting breed of people. In 6 months they are able to turn around a business 🤔 yet can’t seem to stay put in a job….

I don’t mind short tenures to be honest. CMO’s have an average tenure of ~18 months in a role.

Larger issue is that LinkedIn is the worst social network by a long shot. Commentary isn’t valuable and commentary from people who didn’t work on a campaign is even less so.

The algorithm incentivizes comments and comment volume and the people replying give advice and replies more generic than ChatGPT.

Don’t be a LinkedIn influencer. It adds little to no value to your agency. Win awards and get press.

Did you get promoted from account executive to senior account executive by moving to another agency? Don’t know if that’s a “promotion” worth the move.

The worst people are the ones who get promoted by constant jobhopping to get bullshit titles short term. The best people are the ones who have actual impact on an agency and it’s business and get promoted internally. Those are usually the people who are better off in the long run.

Did EY Canada promote everyone a year early or something? I saw a couple of promotions on my LinkedIn that were 🤔 and then saw EY’s official post that they had the largest number of promotions ever. I’m thinking this was a product of having to give large wage hikes like all B4, i.e. if you get a 15-20% bump then we need to bump your position to maintain our ranges long-term, and/or we are going to make you earn your new $ even if you may not be ready for the new title.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

I'm receiving an offer this week for a role as an integrations delivery manager. Does anyone have salary insight around a role such as this?
I honestly have no idea what I might be offered, hence my post, because there's too many variances posted online. I have cross experience in my role now, and have been with the company 7 years now. Just a different business unit and position title I'm unfamiliar with

Hi Fishes,
I cleared LTI all rounds and in HR discussion we came on mutual agreement for 16lpa .I have 7 years of experience and they gave me Specialist - Data Engineering(P3) role. And we agreed I will join with after 60 as I had to serve 60 days notice period. I was waiting for offer letter and when I received the offer letter I was shocked to see that CTC mentioned was 14LPA and joining date was only 15days from now ,which is way early.
