I was at a big shop for several years, through several layoffs. I survived by being valuable to the agency in the work and the culture. If it’s shrinking any good shop keeps the solid people. When it turns around you usually have a strong, dedicated crew of talented people. Might be worth sticking it out if that’s for you.

72 NYC is going through some rough times. But damn...I can’t imagine Laundry Service being the soft landing. Creatively or financially.

If this is for 72LA vs LS LA I would say stick with 72 until something else comes along. I’m ex 72, current freelance and I’ve chatted with LS. Maybe I’d do it for a temp gig but def not full time.

Is 72 not still leagues better than laundry service?

Can you share more as to why you’re unsure about stability? Is it about bouncing back after losses early last year?

Speaking from experience, it’s not secret Droga had a ROUGH year not long ago between lost clients and scandals. We’ve been able to bounce back, both in culture and business. If you guys are taking the time to reflect types of clients/projects you’re pursuing, are conscious of strategic growth, and doing things to get culture back, there’s no reason shouldn’t bounce back.

Unless there are other reasons as to why you’re unsure

It depends on why you’d leave 72. If you want your voice and opinion to matter then it it is worth consideration. But know what you’re giving up to get that. Everything else probably won’t be any better.

Thanks everyone ✌🏽 I really appreciate the insight of all sides.

Yeah it’s tough right now.

I’d say avoid places like mcgarry where you just won’t end up with anything good for your book because the agency doesn’t do work like that.

No one ever calls any attention to them; they just get quietly posted in the printer room on a bulletin board no one checks.

Hello, All! I'm looking for recommendations on inspirational content for women leaders. I follow TEDWomen, many podcasts, and the Women's Conference among other sources. I'd love to hear a fresh perspective on business, trends, tech, marketing, equality in the workforce, etc. I'd love to learn something new. I'm at the VP level and have started a couple of companies, so nothing too junior, but open to many topics. Please share any speakers, books, webinars, or events that you may come across.

How do you know when it’s best to stay in your position?

I’m tired of pivoting. I feel like my job has growth potential and I like my company. Also it seems like my company places a lot of emphasis on experience and I can only get that with time.

On the other hand I work on a small team and there is definitely room for improvement. I think the issue is the size of the team? Like, if there were 2-3 more people it wouldn’t be too bad.

I’m conflicted. Thoughts?

People who work in banking, and especially in France, have you ever been badly treated by your colleagues with an attitude as if you’re not even worth a piece of sh** ?

I don’t know if it’s because people in the banks are like this or if it’s because french people are rude. But the way my colleagues behave (fortunately, just some of them, not all) would be considered extremely impolite and uneducated in Asia (where I’m from). Would love to hear some of your opinions about this!

Lots of respect for the staffers at Spotify if they end up walking out of their jobs for something they believe in. That said what a sad mess we have gotten ourselves into when we try and censor every dissenting opinion as hate speech, especially when Joe Rogan has exhibited more journalistic value than most major news networks.
