Partners, what are signs/examples that a project’s leadership is prioritizing the clients needs over the team beyond the normal ‘nature of client service’? Is a convo is worth it?

I think you need to balance clients needs and team. While I don’t want to burn out the team, I need to keep the clients happy to they continue to hire us. If they stop, there is a good chance the team may not have a job to complain about

Shouldn’t client needs be prioritized all the time? Isn’t that the business we’re in?

From my past experience (i.e. BCG)...I felt team harmony, work culture, self-respect all these stood higher than client servicing. Clients are more grateful to our work, than us being grateful for their money!

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?
