Mmm, yeah... Walk me through how those two points are related?

Did anyone out there think that jobs within the finance and ops sector were what Trump was setting out to bring back, false promises or not? That those were the people swayed by his message or that those were the jobs that Mexico was taking from us?

Just trying to utilize critical thinking to understand your sentiment, but coming up short.

Help a sister out?

Publicis was and always has been a sinking ship regardless of who's in office - which was a weird question to put in here, I agree with the others. Move on sister.

Which Publicis companies were hit?

Most likely. 😞

Hundreds? How many were there to start. Sounds like an exaggeration - just a tad bit? Sorry to those who were impacted 🙏🏾

Exactly! Advertising is a "sinking ship" in general. The more creative will last the longest, but really the business as it is cannot sustain itself in the era of incredible corporate greed and avarice - being promoted through bullshit data scenarios. Relationships and trust are obviously dead already. Enjoy, cell phone zombies!

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?

I have been working as a data scientist since 2018 & have been the bread winner. I have neither been under a proper mentor nor with a team of peers from my field to help me out. I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.
