R/GA - they are the worst. Some of the people they have hired over the years makes me wonder if their HR department is smoking crack

Hi Fishes,
I have 1.8 yrs Exp and working in the Big data domain and have a few offers please help to decide on the comparatively better option based on salary, Work-life Balance, security, and Carrer Growth.

EY GDS: CTC 12 ( 11.20 Fixed )
Publicis Sapient: 16 CTC ( 14.5 LPA FIXED )
Neudesic (IBM) 16 CTC ( 14.5 FIXED + WFH Remote Complete )
PubMatic: 22.70 CTC + 2 lakhs Joining Bonus ( 16 fixed LPA + Other benifits, stocks, etc )

It will be very helpful if you can suggest with some reason.

Ah fuck, I am deeply concerned that AI could replace data analyst like me now

My utilization is 90% but all of my clients are small jobs. Does that look worse than someone who works on the larger, higher revenue generating jobs with all else equal (utilization/performance)?

There's a ton of self help and leadership books out there to help people in their careers. If there was one that was written front the lense of a public accounting, would you read it?

I’m a CPA and am weighing going back for my Masters, maybe an MBA?

Will I get any benefit from going back to get my masters?

I wonder if we’ll still have minimum billable hours if WWIII breaks out

I am a new associate (1 month in mid-tier firm) and I struggle to get work to fill up the whole day. In honest time, i get about 3-5 billable hours a day. Am I going to get in trouble or fired over this?? I am putting my best efforts when I do get work and I ask for work sometimes. At this point I feel like I am being annoying too…

Hello 👋🏻
Anybody with retention marketing experience (particularly adopting a new CRM system in their organization - SalesForce Marketing Cloud) or in contact with a retention marketing folk. I’d like to have a small chat around understanding this exercise. Let me know. Thanks 🤘🏻

Are there any openings in enterprise profitability team in PWC sdc?

Does 130k in total compensation with a flat annual bonus of 5k, sound like a fair offer for 12 YOE in software implementation and now Technical Account Management, in Ontario?

Starting soon in Boston but the the WFH situation was still TBD when I interviewed. Are there any updates on when everyone would need to go back to office full time in the U.S.?

For experienced hires, is there any job related technical trainings during the first few weeks?

Scenario: US visa expired in 2021. Applied for a Canadian tourist visa to hopefully go for H-1B stamping in Canada once they open appointments.
Biometrics completed. Haven’t received any comm regarding my tourist visa approval. My partner already revived the visa long ago even if we allied together. Could it be because my US visa has expired? The reason I gave for applying for visitor visa was just for tourism purposes.

Description of your job

Joseph Golden omnicom

Twitter and Verizon.

Here’s a cheerful one to end your week:

Was told last week my freelance gig was ending today.

Contacted my network of gatekeepers and one wrote to me on Sunday.

(Contd)

Jamie Engelmann at VB&P is a repeat offender.

👻 CreativeFuse 👻

Gmails “nudge” feature does a real good job in reminding who’s ghosting me at the moment.

MDC - Annie Warren

Scale of 1-10, how crazy is it to check-in email the CDs you interviewed with? Unless there’s been a terrible accident I’m pretty sure the recruiter is ghosting me. The not knowing is killing me!

Had interviews at three different places recently, all of which seemed to go well. Recruiters/HR people told me they’d be in touch with next steps end of last week or early this week. Haven’t heard from any of the three and none of them have responded to follow-up emails 🙃

Vaynermedia, every 2 years.

Sadly a lot of recruiters are unemployed and being ghosted themselves.

Hopefully this pandemic will open the eyes of some on the practice of ghosting...

I’m ghosting a recruiter and it feels great!

Might be opposite of ghosting but still lame: interviewing brand side, lonnng 6+ month process, was told after “final” on-site interviews I was THE top candidate, they should decide soon, then (cont)

Johannes Leonardo. Nancy was the queen of ghosting.

Lucky Generals. I was ghosted after an in person coffee interview and promises of setting up a meeting with the other founders. Just found out another pal of mine had the same experience with them!

Code and Theory

An in-house recruiter from Publicis reached out two months ago asking for my avails to chat. I responded within a few hours and it’s been crickets...

Ellen Curaba sent me an email to schedule a call. Didn’t hear from her. Sent two follow up emails and no answer. No answer to LinkedIn messages. Seen her posting on LinkedIn nearly every day. 🤷‍♂️

Acronym NYC was a nightmare to try to get feedback/move the process along
