Is consulting in the MMM (Marketing Mix Modelling) field a “good” career choice to specialise in? Unfamiliar with counterparts and which other fields are better/worse..

I'm working in this field at the moment. Keen to see other people's thoughts also! I come from a tech background originally so it's a big adjustment

I work in this field. It’s a mixed bag. The modelling is fairly straightforward, but if you’re at a smaller consultancy it’s hard to get past the “big players” in the market.

It also depends whether you want to be building models yourself or using a tool. The tools are common at large companies to build models, but then you’re not actually doing any coding.

I’d say you can specialise in this kind of modelling, but you should look to be able to solve different problems too.

Big players are your larger media agencies (e.g. MediaCom) and econometrics orgs (e.g. ekimetrics).

If the company uses tools, that’s fine - I was more making you aware that if you like the coding side of it, you might end up a little disappointed. If you don’t care, it’s a non-issue.

I’m happy to DM.

So, a spot I made (concept to completion) got shelved due to COVID forcing the client’s marketing plan to change. During that time, my partner and I were laid off. Recently, the spot aired, but the agency credits a different team for the work – me, my parter, and my CDs aren’t listed. Do I ask the agency to correct it? Just throw it in my book with explanation? Just take the L and chalk it up to that being how the industry is?

Hello,
London is a world class metropolitan city and so is the cost of livi.
But then why don't MAANG or other big techs pay as high for software managers and other leadership roles as they do in the USA, particularly California, Washington, New York. In fact for the same role, $ salaries are at least 3X higher to their counterparts roles here in London.
Definitely, London isn't 3X cheaper them.
Is it that companies don't want that high here or there isn't enough competition or something else?

Hello! I joined a company in the UK 6 months ago, and received a £20,000 gross sign on bonus - clause associated to this however was that I stay for a minimum of 12 months. Unfortunately, the role is really proving to be the wrong fit, and I am looking to leave.

Question for you all - if I resign, I assume I would be expected to pay back the sign on bonus despite me only receiving approx 12k after tax. Anyone know the process for a tax clawback for something like this? Thanks in advance!
