Need your inputs pls

Hows the work and work/life balance at full-service agencies vs a media agency. I'm a media planner coming from a full-service agency and I'm wondering if it will be a step backward going to a media focused agency.

Very difficult to explore side opps when consulting. When clocking 70+ hours no time to work on others. Wage slavery continues...

Is it totally weird to request another meeting after getting a job offer to make sure it's a right fit? 🤔

I've noticed that sometimes I still have lingering questions. ❔

I've been burnt out by toxic work environments, so I don't want to make another mistake. 🙄

How would you handle this logistics of this meeting? (Timing - after the offer but with time before you start? How to phrase the reason why?)

Thanks! 🔅☺️

Hi Fishes,

I have 9+ yrs experience in .net development.I have offer with softura (19.5 LPA including variable) and qburst ( 21.5 LPA fixed).
Both are providing WFH.

Could anyone tell which has good work life balance?

Too many cooks in the kitchen

I love my job in special education, the job may bring quite a bit of stress and exhaustion but nothing compares to the stress of the related service team. OT, PT, speech, BCBA, social worker, etc etc is really what’s killing me this year. It is 23 days into the school year and the team members all make different plans and as a result, nothing is being accomplished. And if paraprofessionals follow ie what OT says but not PT, it cause so much unnecessary conflict!

Has anyone ever worked with a recruiter/headhunter? Are there any pr/mar comms focused firms you'd recommend?

My mental health has suffered tremendously over the past month. I have a therapist that I probably should see more of but I’m jobless and need to save. I am an aspiring entrepreneur with an inspiring business idea (to me lol) but my anxiety and depression is hindering me severely… fuck my brain. Any other founders here? It’s f‘ing tough.

We had a Sr. Manager depart from the team and I, among my other teammates, have been working to cover the void. I applied to the Sr. position but was told it would be another year before a promotion could be offered. Considering current responsibilities, work performance, and personal ambition, I feel comfortable in believing that I should have been considered. I have turned down a Sr. position at a direct competitor to stay. How can I bring this subject back up to my supervisor?

Any upcoming law conferences/events?

Has anyone been successful in negotiating the schedule on a global pregnancy bill? My provider won't bill by visit and split the global cost into four payments all due by the 28th week. I don't understand how that's legal since it is so off the calendar of services and crosses calendar years (and insurance coverage), where most costs are incurred at the end of pregnancy with increased visit frequency and delivery.

Remembering the phrase boomer doomer still makes me laugh

Does anyone have good mesh router recommendations for a home office?

The "who loves dogs?" bowl is making my life much better right now

I’m doing a cs degree rn & I want to be an appsec engineer but I’m not sure which is a better path for growth: Path A: SMART scholarship which involves a 4 year gov commitment after college grad. But they offer a stipend and full cost of college (I already covered cost of college)
Plan B: Or should I just go for a private sector job straight out of college and hope to get internships while in university.

If your investment bank has been asked to grant loan-repayment holidays, share your view on the potential impact of them.

Had on-site a month ago and recruiter has promised an update several times and not followed through. Anything I can do other than following up once a week? I think I’m the backup candidate but would be helpful to get more clarity

I just had to send my husband away in an ambulance. I’m not allowed to go with him or even go to the hospital. I don’t know what to do. I can’t even be there for my husband.

I love the engagement part of the job but hate the data. Do companies ever hire just community moderators?

Are you an experienced community and social media manager expert with 4 to 5 year of experience.
You can DM.
Let’s make a deal.

What kind of plans/services do you offer to your clients as a freelancing social media manager?

Is there a need for freelance community managers?

Does anyone here know anyone who has left their CM role? What was the next step in their career?

I have a bit of experience doing social media management with online businesses but I’d like to try out working with local businesses in my area. What are some good strategies for doing cold outreach, and what kind of services would you offer to entice them to work with you?

What questions should I ask a candidate during an interview for a community manager job?

Moderators/managers for virtual communities actually have a pretty difficult job because the rules for posting have to be interpreted, there are very few hard and fast absolutes in this profession

What are some useful tools that you use to assist you in your management?

I was rejected from a job because I don’t have a big online presence. Why does work have to be my hobby, too? Is this normal?

What prompted you to do a complete community overhaul? Did it pay off?

I need a magic spell to make employers stop asking community managers to design, manage ads and create strategies. As you read, a CM is in charge of your COMMUNITY. They're should not be doing the work of 4 people.

If you had to choose between Discord and Reddit as your main community hub, which one would you pick and why?

What resources would you suggest for learning about A/B testing in a community context?

Feeling low on inspiration rn, what do you like to do to get your creative juices flowing again?

Where do you find inspiration for topics to seed the community with?

We’re looking to implement incentives to encourage community engagement. We’re going to test both material incentives (product) and good ol’ fashion recognition. Which one do you think will do better?

Wanted to share a recent win in case this would work for anyone else in the bowl -- We started a “share some music” channel in the community and it’s amazing how a non-related topic can encourage participation.

How did you get started in your career as a community manager?

I’ve started a new job and though they have a community, it has been stagnant for a long time. Would you face the change directly with a “we’re back!” style post, or just increase the activity without acknowledging the absence?
