Remember when everyone was hating on this? I think it was the random posters and “slogan” (aka the deck name meant for Cannes) and PR release which bungled it all.

Calling it a stunt where New York City tourists were given a tour of Chicago instead was the core idea. They fucked it up by adding too much extra around it.

I like the idea of this, but it seems like one of those things where once you get the joke you get the joke. A fun example of this kind of stuff is the official Twitter account for the State of New Jersey. It mocks and berates other states mercilessly. It really is like if New Jersey was turned loose on social media. In that format it works because it's just a funny thing now and then, and it can play off whatever is in the news. Or if Delaware happens to boast about something, look out.

This post is an alert message for anyone joining the Johnson & Johnson EMEA account for SAP & had Rakesh Sharma for their Manager round.

He is nothing less than a con man & will promise you a lot to make you join the account. After that he will put you in testing projects. If you ask for a release, he will either not release you or release with a very bad rating and influence other project managers to not take you into their projects.

You will be left with no choice other than leaving TCS.
