Nearly two full days in and MullenLowe people haven’t had a single piece of communication from TBWA. Well, aside from a “Town Hall” meeting last night that was abandoned 10 mins in because TBWA leadership couldn’t figure out how to join. Complete joke of a start.

Patience, lots of moving parts that were moving all the way up until Monday morning. You don’t bring two companies this size together without some issues.

Counter point here, they chose how and when to do all these layoffs and announcements. It wasn’t a surprise to them. If they weren’t ready for it, the could have waited. There’s no way to cut this that makes them look fully competent. Yeah, it’s complicated. Then spend some more time figuring it out. Not all that tough of a concept.

Had an Excel assessment yesterday as the second to last step in an interview process. I was using a new computer and long story short, had some technical difficulties (or maybe just my own incompetence under stress) and ended up only getting through half of the test. I’m on the fence about emailing my recruiter and explaining the circumstances/asking for a retest. Don’t want to come off like I’m complaining but also don’t want this to be the reason I don’t move forward. Any advice appreciated…

Can someone explain how billable hours work?

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 .
