What industry/sector and what size agencies?

Tech or healthcare. Interviewing at small agencies (10-50 people) but would also be curious about bigger agencies like Weber, Edelman, etc.

I'm applying for a job at Company X. Is there a way to see what web/print advertising/collateral they have produced in the past? The work is not shown on their external agency's site. It's a smallish company.

I've done searches for Company X but have not been inundated with ads on Google like usual. I did find commericals on Youtube.
Thanks!

Interviews need to be monitored and recorded. I can’t tell you how many disappointed dreams I have been sold. It is a complete waste of time to really wait around to be wishful of a call. Gathering up 10 potential applicants to narrow it down to a top 3 and only make one offer is not acceptable. Much like jury duty, applicants should be compensated for their time.

Opinions welcomed:

V5 Legal Assistant here (2 years in industry, started at current firm in late April). I’m on pace for 2700 billable hours / year. To boot, that rate is going up because of all of the 65+ hour weeks lately, and the first month being billed around 40.

I was just told that I may not qualify for any bonuses because I haven’t been here for 1 year.

Is this normal? Am I crazy for thinking that I should be getting a *significant* bonus for all of the crazy hours and deadlines?

Hi Sharks, I had an interview with Tata Consultancy today and cleared the TAG round by answering all their questions. So here my query is, based on my performance will they offer me a hike of 100% or more from my CCTC, because this role is too relevant to my domain and technical knowledge so that I don't wanna miss out on this.

CCTC - 6LPA
YOE - 5

Non FAANG tech (think salesforce, PayPal, Sqaure, etc.) proposed compensation for 2nd yr MBB EM - ~200 base, 40 bonus, 100k stock vesting over 4 years, sign on bonus 25. How would you rate this? Worth consideration?

In TC calculations, would you count 100K stocks or only 25 that vest in y1?

Do you always send a thank you note on all your interviews? What if you forgot to send one, is that a sign you might not get the job?

Happy 4th! New to AZ. Curious of the salary range for a Legal Admin Manager with a national firm, local PHX office. Team size +50. Obviously, lots of factors play into comp. Research shows 110-130k. Does that seem accurate? Thanks in advance!

My sales lead just gave me my quota for the year. Its increased 120% from last year. I asked if my peers experienced the same increase and the answer is No because I have more experience and up for promo this year. Our bonuses are a % of quota achieved meaning it’s harder for me to get a bonus. Do you think this is fair? What would you do? For additional context, I crushed my quota last year but I feel like I’m being punished now.
