Men - boxers, briefs or trunks?

Looking to relocate to Boston (fiance grew up there and wants to settle down around family). Sadly I dont have much of a network up there. Does anyone know of current searches?

Hi All, I am planning to move to a rival firm but have a notice period of 2-3 months in my current month. Has someone done something similar ?

I see several AE openings at FCB. Anyone know what the accounts are?

Hey all,

What's with the probation period with Deloitte India? What's the rate of termination, if there are any, unlike the other firms (who have a probation but 99.99% of the employees are confirmed at the end of probation).

Appreciate your inputs.

Thank you.

Salary deducted even after completing notice period citing hybrid work policy?

My past employer has deducted 28 days salary of 2 months, by citing mandatory Work From Office (Hybrid model) during notice period of 3 months. Severe lower back for reason for me resigning & WFH

Company unfairly allows some employees to WFH. Even contract employees WFH.
I served full notice period & completed all my assigned work. I have records of tickets, work completed too.
Should I approach labour court?

I am a UX designer who has completed a Google certification program along with a resume and professional portfolio. However, I’ve struggled to find a job (remote). Any advice or resources I could use? Or are there any employers currently hiring and are interested? I’d be happy to hear from you.

I’m seeing most of the commission only jobs are mainly cold call sales. Is that the industry norm? I’ve only done inside sales salary + commission.

Hi all,

Can I use my vacation leaves to reduce my notice period?

Thanks in advance!

A reminder to my fellow creatives - be strong and courageous.

The first things you need to organize your workplace are a full staff list and an org chart (title hierarchy). If those don't already exist, you can make them.

Work on yours this week!

Roe V Wade just got overturned, what are we going to do about it?

Thanks for starting this bowl and looking forward to sharing it with others and bringing in resources as needed for topics and discussions that are so very needed in our industry.

Soooo we just got bought by Accenture. Anyone want to get this project off the ground?? Like, soon???

When they lay people off, they often keep things quiet because it will "effect morale". But the firing itself is what effects morale. Being secretive about it undermines respect and harms morale more.

Humane hours would be nice. Also some parameters for weekend work. It either doesn’t happen or we are paid handsomely for it?

Uber just unionized. If they can, why can’t we?!

You may have noticed the new Networking feature that has been added to our and other bowls. It concerned me with regard to privacy, so I reached out to Fishbowl for answers.

More in thread...

Happy last Friday of summer! Does your agency do Summer Fridays? Did you have time to take all of them? Why not All-Year-Round Fridays? Why not a floating weekday each week? What would you argue for?

One of the major challenges I've encountered in starting a union in my workplace is that people who are woke enough to know we need one are also the ones smart enough to jump ship.

Do you use Working Not Working? Do you use another freelancing site? What do you like about it? What else do you wish it afforded you?

What if a guild operated a network like that, of talent & gigs?

Imagine being the first agency to unionize. Imagine the press. For an industry that is so fueled by media attention, it would be a company's dream... wouldn't it?
