33 / NYC / Senior Digital Producer / 90K after bonuses. How hard should I be looking?

Wait listed, what now?

I’m looking to change jobs but my online portfolio is weak—not the work itself, but the format and the way it’s presented. I’m honestly not that digitally savvy, so can anyone recommend a good easily customizable website to create an online portfolio? And any other tips for presentation?

Hi Partners

Wondering if there is a risk of layoff/asked to leave, even after becoming a partner?

Also, did you have any fear of not achieving sales targets when you became a partner?

Thanks

Good WFH office equipment/tech… go. Just got a Steelcase Gesture office chair and it is game changing. Realize I haven’t really been using firm stipend for electronics/office stuff and need to step my game up. What else is out there you enjoy?

Does a $525k for a 4bed+2.5 bath ; 2020 built; $211/sq ft in Frisco seems a good deal?

Any recommendations on smart thermostats that you love and enjoy? I would need to replace 3 thermostats in our home so looking for best value. Our electric company will provide them “free” but then charges $10 per month. We plan to be in the same house for many years so doing the upgrade ourself seems to be a no brainer.

Should I refer my SO to Google?
(Does she have a real shot?)

She's a Project Manager at a global auto parts manufacturer.
Her role is 30% technical, 70% business (meaning she has good problem solving and stakeholder mgmt skills).
5 YOE+Degree at a top engineering school in Europe
My experience at Google made her interested in joining the company, but we never really acted on it.
Could she be a good fit?
If so which areas/orgs?

(Also, are there any rules against it?)

I’ve been hearing and reading a lot of negative things about GUT from friends and on here. Can anyone from GUT tell me if it’s actually a toxic place to work? Or is that just haters hating?

Got laid off. Just started at the agency. Was so excited because it’s a great shop. Now what?

Hi friends, I am reading this book ‘radical cander’ and was wondering if you have Fav way/ example of receiving and giving tough feedback? Or have any stories about feedback that have stuck with you through your career.

If you got fired today would you have a Bach up plan? What would it be?

What was the thing that made you say "fuck this shit" at your previous workplace and resign?

Advertising truths #12 - Nothing good comes out of a group where there're more CDs than creatives. Either you land on a flat campaign or a terrible campaign.

How long do you really think you’ll stay in advertising? What does your career trajectory look like? I was recently asked and it took me by surprise for a second tbh. The most obvious answer was “work my way up to CD.” But what about becoming a super seasoned and experienced creative forever? 🤷‍♀️

AKQA and Grey merger. What do we think?

So I was laid off. Is it okay to talk about it at my next job interview? Feels like everyone knows anyway.

Why do some art directors only really start looking at stuff at the 11th hour? Thus forcing people to stay late on the Friday of a 3 day weekend.

Vayner? Anomaly? Ogilvy? Which one to jump to? Account Mgtm!

Remember The Woo? Yeah, me neither. Well, they cut everyone’s pay (except mgmt of course) by 1/4 to get the small biz gov loan, and used it to hire a $500k/yr mgmt head. Agency still working barebones
