I’m almost three months into a new job I was really excited about but I think I haven’t fully recovered from the burnout of my last job. Any tips on how to recover when you can’t really take time off or a back seat work wise? I feel like it’s taking me so long to complete the easiest of tasks and I’ve got barely any juice left in me.

Have you ever taken a career slow down? I am feeling burnt out from COVID and the incremental responsibilities thrown my way over the last 5+ years. I feel like my health has deteriorated. I like my company, but I want to do less. I don’t need to be a HR Director, CHRO, etc. With a career slowdown, I am prepared for a lower compensation and would want decent benefits. Any lessons learned or success stories about career slowdowns?

CW salary at FB/Meta within the Creative X group? I keep seeing posts for copywriter positions that require 6 years of experience so I’m assuming even though they call it copywriter it’s more in line with senior / ACD agency salary.

Guys...could you please advise on 2 things below

I think we should create a compensation thread in this bowl. It would help a lot of people who are planning to switch companies/jobs or who are moving to this region. Just a thought, since it’s one of the most common questions asked here.

Damn I miss my life before the pandemics (the home office part can stay, though).

About to start my first PM job! Any tips to be prepared and ramp up quickly? Books to read, courses to take, etc.. any tips are appreciated! Currently in ops consulting. No tech background.

Maybe it's time to revenge-post big $ job listings on LinkedIn for Recruiters and Hiring Managers, auto-schedule phone interviews for respondents, GHOST them, and then re-post the jobs 4 months later.

If you were offered a job at a great agency but working on just one brand, but it was a big one like Nike or McDonalds, would you do it? Being siloed sucks, but maybe worth it for a big account?

Trying to start reading more/ finding some blogs and inspiring resources. What are some of your favorite blogs/medium publications/online sources/etc of inspiration?

Love this Progressive commercial with the Motaur that plays every 15 seconds on Hulu, it’s so dumb. I’ve never made an intentionally dumb ad, just the ones that are supposedly heartfelt that are dumb.

I worked with a Junior AD that skipped college and went straight to portfolio school. I was mad resentful of him at first, mostly because I wish I would have thought of that and saved $100K.

Some days the ghosting and radio silence comes off as blacklisting and soul crushing. How hard of an ask is it to copy and paste "thank you for your interest, we decided to go with another candidate"

Do agencies outside of pharma have Art Supervisor roles? Or does it go Sr AD > ACD. I just got promoted to Art Sup & honestly don’t know if so should update my Linkedin since i’m working...

What advice do you have for someone who wants to make a quick and seamless transition from operations to creative?

Things are apparently going to get better after a client will be leaving, I’ll get to work on different brands but I am feeling pretty burnt out from the agency I’m at. Will new clients help? Or should I look elsewhere. Been at the agency almost 3 years, I feel like I need to switch things up for my sanity.

Who here is freelancing while working full time?

Just became an ACD. Im in a limbo. Half of the time im being treated as a Super Senior AD and the other half im being treated as a Almost CD. Then when im scoped over work that my CD and I oversee, some people are asking me how does my role differ from the CD’s, as they tend to look at me as an unnecessary layer for approvals. In a way, i do the job so well that i get asked to do more AD projs and guide more projs — but then: wtf does my CD do? They mostly just 👍🏻what i direct n approve

Which one would you pick?

Big name shop. Shitty account, but you get opportunities beyond that.

Shop with bad reputation that lacks PR and hardly enters awards but has a lot of book-worthy projects.

Hi. Can I bounce some ideas for a spot off one of ya?

Is the "we're just trying to gain the clients trust so they'll allow us to make good work spiel," a crock of crap?

Hi Creatives! What tool does your Resources Management team use? Also, what software are you using for creative workflow? Also include if you like it or if you have any favorites. Thanks in advance.

For all in house creatives and creative directors. How big is your team and what is the structure / org chart like?

Just got briefed to come up with a brand tagline and I quote: “Client is expecting action in the tagline, some sort of verb.” No other information, except what I already know of the brand by virtue of working on it. When I asked to speak with the client, my request was denied. Absolutely incensed with the servicing team. Not sure how to tell them this is unacceptable without screaming! Any advice on how to deal?

Thoughts on Mother NY?

Any thoughts on the new agency,The Curv? I just interviewed there today along with 200 other applicants squished in a waiting room. What’s their story?
