Guy.

That office is one of the tragedies of this industry. The talent incubation in the 2000’s and early to mid 2010’s produced great work and creatives who made solid shops.

Looks like they had to make room for the new CSO’s salary… https://lbbonline.com/news/tbwa-chiat-day-cso-tom-sussman-ai-advertising-future

They all do.

Time to cut the squad to get ready for the "drawing and quartering" ... If you aren't transferred you are on the street.
Brutal part of this OMC stuff

It means downsizing … right sizing to get ready for Omnicom buying Piubicis

I’m a newer registered nurse (2 years) and want to get into remote work. I keep getting denied due to lack of experience but to even get the job I have now (case manager) the company knew one of my family members and they gave me a chance to interview because of that. For these remote companies where I don’t have connections how can I transition over?

SAP has not released my offer yet but I had an interview with VP and he said he is impressed with me and will release the offer letter soon but they have not negotiated for my salary. But he was saying if he will give me less than IBM then will I join the SAP or not? I assumed this is a trick ques., btw, I said yes

Does anyone else feel like people who are generally nice in person and on calls sound mean or stand-offish in emails and text/chat? I get that over-use of friendliness in text can come off as green/immature, but I tend to try and cushion my words with positivity or even exclamation marks/the occasional emoji to show that I don't sound completely unemotional.

Or maybe i'm just an overthinking copywriter who's reading into it too much.
