Kind of wanna move to Europe, where do I find an awesome job europeople? CD.

Hi Fishes,

I am a software specialist having 8+ yoe, currently working at Mastek with a CTC of 17lpa. Can anyone help me with the current market CTC considering the below:
Current Role: Tech Lead
Tech Stack: Full Stack in Java, Springboot, Angular, Mobility, AWS beginner.
Your responses will be much appreciated.

Does anyone have any experience with northwestern mutual ? I just got a offer for a internship there.

Something you do that's outside the norm of coworkers / finance crowd. Ex: buy inexpensive underwear, listen to heavy metal, stay-cations, eat Popeye's regularly, tattoos

I’m currently moving to phoenix soon are there any good dispensaries in the area that are hiring? I’m looking for calm environments that aren’t overstimulating because I’m autistic and must work places are ableist

Are L&E firms raising salaries (Littler, Fisher, Ogletree, etc.)? What is starting compensation?

Anyone else super unimpressed with administrative support with a new firm after lateraling? I told a partner I’d just take care of a routine task myself. He told me my rate is too high and to use a “project manager” (basically an intern they can pay less than a paralegal). We have a 40 person group and 3 project managers making starvation wages. Big firm. You’d know the name.

What sort of work is considered corporate finance? This was referenced in a energy practice related interview and am not sure what sort of work that would entail.

Started at firm in second week of March and am at 1,700 right now, on pace for 2,000+. M&A 7th year. Who else is this busy? Keep reading M&A down across the board, but not feeling it here…

Obviously love the job security, but am at lockstep bonus firm and pretty sure at this point bonus will be on base scale last year, so kinda bummed about that.

How many days does TCS takes for TR round results

I need an assistant/paralegal. Probably part time at first. I live/work in a small city in Oklahoma, solo practice. I would like approx 10 billable hours/week (if part time) from them. What do i look for in one? Pay amount? (Most here make around $12/hour). Incentives for bonus money?

Gotta think W&K has to open a Chicago office to service McD’s. What positions do you think they would staff up on?

Bored of shopping on Mag Mile/ State Street...what are your favorite spots to shop? 25F and looking for cute casual wear, not just business!

What are some good websites, news sites, and sources to keep updated on M&A news and trends?

So without getting hate mail... I’m a gay man in a very gay-friendly office, but find that there is no ‘right’ time to bring it up. No one on my team talks about relationships, but sometimes I (contd)

Anyone want to grab a coffee or lunch today? (M26, married)

Going in-house full-time ✌🏻

Any agencies in NYC wanting to hire a Jr. Art Director soon?

Any reccos for stock music sites?
Please and thanks

Tell me about your “About me” on your site. How personal do you get? How do you find the right balance?

I put in my two weeks! But now it's weird here haha. Agencies should ask you to leave and pay you out. This is silly.

Is there a cool way laying out IG stories in your book? Or should you just leave them out completely?

What are benefits of working with a content strategist on a project?

What are strong must-have traits of a good content strategist?

Trying to build a case for my agency to hire our first CS!

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?

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.

Can someone please explain to me what a group copy supervisor is? Do you have these at your agency?

I came across a copywriter position that I’m interested in, but one of the requirements is 8 years of experience. I’m currently just over 5 years. Would it be ok to still apply?

I’ve always been comfortable concepting and writing. But when it comes to nitty gritty logistical stuff, I struggle. Like the discussions about aspect ratios, social post timelines, and the nuances of Facebook collection ads.

Can any other writers relate?

Anyone want to work for us in our chicago office and make me some referral money?

We’re looking for ACD’s, seniors, and a mid-level writer. Send me a DM with your book(s) and i’ll refer you.

I want to become an art director with zero design skills. I’m going to have someone else comp everything up for me. The ideas might be solid. Who wants to hire me?

How long does the freelance to full-time conversion usually take if it happens? Mind sharing some personal experiences?

Who else is constantly given briefs with influencers baked in as a key component of the solution?

I’m currently freelancing as a CD at reputable agencies. Is it ridiculous to consider full-time ACD-level jobs?
