Mill NY closing. Let’s discuss.

Has anyone worked directly with an Instagram type Content Creator to shoot and edit OLVs? I have a job coming up where the target market is teens and they want to connect in an authentic way. Plus as always they are saying no $$$. A friend did this happily in Europe. Would love any tips or suggestions from this group. Thanks!

Anyone who has transitioned from M&A work to finance work, how has your experience been? I am considering a similar transition and would love to learn about any changes to your work/life balance, stress-levels, etc.

Fishes need suggestions. I have been put on PIP for bad performance. I am being a part of 6 months project and project is about to complete with backend work done. I took more time for some tasks because of not knowing the technology so they highlighted that and my senior send emails to HR to put me on PIP. What should I do ? Acknowledge PIP ? Or resign? Or let them terminate me so I can claim salary of three months as fnf settlement? Getting confused, please suggest.

Thoughts on the new Chase Freedom Flex?

Pet a cat or break your lease?

How do I do less and get paid more? Feel like people keep giving me more and more work. I’m ok and not great. I just want to get my work done, be left alone, stress less, and get more sleep.

Hi, I did interview with amazon.

Round 1: HR round. cleared.

Round 2: Hiring manager round. Went well.

After 2 weeks they said Role no longer available. It was L5 supply chain role. This happened in April. Can I apply again in Amazon? I joined a company 3 months ago, does it look bad in CV to leave again in 3 months? I hv a 6 month gap in career in 2019 due to lay off (covid). total exp 9 yrs. SCM exp 6 yrs.

What’s the tea on TDH Chicago?

Men - boxers, briefs or trunks?

Going to sound like a silly question, but my hotel smoke alarm chirped one time. No smoke in my room. Anything to be concerned about before bed? Travel a lot never had alarm beep.

Can you recommend some names for technology start up?

Currently looking for production planning role remote or hybrid.will be moving to Fort Worth Texas next spring!

Grey Merge with AKQA, VMLYR merges with Geometry. Are those „mergers” just the coverups for potential wave of layoffs?

Now I’m curious.. BEST clients you’ve ever worked with? I’ll start - Disney, Fox theatrical.

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .

Why do all the Creatives I've come across give the rest of the agency such attitude? Get off your high horses please.

Pretty excited to get back to the hustle on Tuesday... this break was really nice and much needed but I'm feeling a little antsy to get moving again. I can't be the only one ?

Is Phenomenon really still that awful? Shocked by the reviews.

Do you think independent agencies will be in better shape to handle COVID-related client budget reductions and/or losses?

Or does it not matter and layoffs are equal across the board?

Worst email accidentally sent to the wrong person? Yours or anecdotal...

Best time sheet system you’ve ever tried in a job?

🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♀️ Husband/Wife as CW/AD partners — good idea or recipe for disaster?

Tired of this constant grind and constant layoff situation in NYC. Thinking of making the move to LA. Any thoughts? Yay or nay?

If my work starts with the strategy, and I successfully demonstrate how the creative ties to the strategy, and we all agree the connection is clear, then how is the work still deemed "off-strategy"?

Any senior art directors at NY agencies looking for a new partner? Pref someone at BBDO, DDB, TBWA, Droga, Wk, Mother, T+S.

Mute button horror stories.

Curious how other people’s brains work.
When you get an activation brief, what’s your process for coming up with a solid idea?

Look for cultural moments that you can adapt? Look through award show books? Scroll YouTube videos until 3am?

I know that every brief and every idea is different, but I’m more interested in the process and what you’re creative routine is to get the wheels turning.

Thanks.

What's Your Take?:

Asking creatives to work on a project with lots of award potential but minimal budget/billable time allocations. So the majority of the work would be done on personal time.

Can you tell / sense that you’ll get the job after an interview?

I’m like 50/50

Just got laid off do I need cobra? I plan to hopefully have a job soon

How long does it take to hear back from an agency interview ?
