Question for anyone currently at Dentsu, as I'm looking into applying for a position there - is it true what they say about the "overwork, underpay"? That your day isn't done until your work is done? I'm really afraid of jumping from bad to worse in my career. Please let me know if possible!

Depends on team. I worked 80-hour weeks at my last shop. Moving to dentsu, I got a 30% pay bump and I work around 45 hours (even reasonable while supporting Super Bowl).

Assuming the following holds tomorrow, I expect we will get a call of AZ around 11:15am ET, and NV and PA around 12:15pm ET.

NV: Biden wins >60% of next batch of ballots in Clark County
PA: Biden extends lead beyond 35K ballots

My intuition is that the networks want to call all three to provide extra margin for error given the stakes and fine margins.
