NY Resolution: I’m not attending anymore agency-wide meetings.

All-hands, fireside chats, quarterly updates, state of the union—whatever they call it, I’m declining the invite.

I don’t care about the status of this agency, changes enacted or its future. If the info is important, I’ll hear through the grape vine. New client? I’m not on that team, so don’t care. If my job is on the line, attending a meeting won’t help.

Experimented with this in Sept. Nobody missed me.

How good is to join @coforge as senior developer

Just heard EY is about to make more layoffs in audit too

I like to apply for Product Manager roles at Amazon since I like the role. I have done front office CRM (SAP) implementations for Fortune50 clients through Accenture.
It is more of sitting with users to understand their process and map it to CRM suite and build additional features to map their specific processes.
I have also worked on sales, BD and functional spec creation for new features.
Can I count these as Product Management experience while applying for Amazon or other Faangmula?

Received less salary this month also. (Same amount as last month)
Why is this happening? Too much tax 🥵

I am working in CG as a consultant with close to 9 years of experience and 9 lacs CTC. Is it ok or should the package be more? Can I ask HR for salary correction? What is the range like in the B2 level?

I have heard there is some HR policy that boomerang/ returning employees are taken back on the older salary. Can someone please share more details about the period of applicability and exceptions? Thank you.

My new agency’s healthcare plan only has ONE physician in NYC listed as in-network... is a plan this limited the norm?!

Why do people in this industry say "like" so much? It makes it annoying to, like, walk around the building and listen

How do I be a decent manager to a coworker who's upset I've been promoted twice in two years and they haven't? We started out as coworkers, became decent friends after a few good moments, but went back to simply coworkers after they flubbed a few projects and I had to step in to clean up. I'm non-confrontational but year-end reviews are right around the corner and I'm worried about having to act professional to someone who I got too close with and who now hates me.

Chat Bots and Artificial Intelligence. Ok, go!

Funny to see how men are trying to post shit about DMA...

Looking for a great writer (with a lot of TV script experience) to be my partner in a new role at a rising agency in NYC. Can be remote now but still be expected to move here at some point. Needs to be able to mentor and empower young creatives. Will be a management first role. No CDs who want to do everything themselves please. DM your books if interested, will send mine back. Open to freelancers as well who would be interested in full time if it goes well.

What odd questions about your job did you get at the xmas / Hanukkah table?

casually scrolling through my feed on IG when I see a sponsored ad from a guy wanting to work at Saatchi. Jobseekers are getting so clever! what's the best thing you've seen someone do for a job?

Why do CDs fall into complacency so easily?

O&M Creative: more shuffling still to come? And by shuffling, I mean layoffs too.

Why are agencies in LA paying so low?
The cost of living in the Playa Vista area, is on par with Silicon Valley.

Given the outbreak, are places actually going to be hiring right now? Recently laid off from 9-5 and my freelance is starting to fizzle.

What skills or abilities do you believe are the most important to have/demonstrate in order to move from Copywriter to Sr. Copywriter?

How do you politely tell a recruiter that you do not offer “holds”

I'm reading this book on boundaries. In the work section it says I should tell my boss that I can't work after 5 PM. Knowing that advertising work commonly goes past 5 PM...would my job be in danger if I said that?
There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?

Today is Women's Day and 'A Day Without a Woman,' -- are you skipping work and wearing red?
