Consol C-corp question: what happens to CA NOL after a dissolution? Can it be transferred to the parent entity like federal?

Is there such thing as a true account role at major branding agencies? Ex. Interbrand, Landor, Pentagram...Sounds like in many cases it’s actually just PM under a different name.

Only recently started being out/comfortable being bi, but overcoming a lot of self stigma. Others seem so secure in the LGBT world already, it leaves me terrified how/where to begin. Help?

I was doing some googling and I saw that PWC offers MBA hires 45k in comparison to MBBs at 70k +. Is this a bad joke? I can't imagine that PWC's target for MBA hires is widely different from MBB. In the US, the pay gap isn't that wide. Any reason behind this madness?

HI All,

There has been a significant flow of investors to higher yielding corporate and emerging market securities.

O&M Creative: more shuffling still to come? And by shuffling, I mean layoffs too.

If I applied to a company and sent a message to the recruiter on LinkedIn, but they haven’t accepted my connection request or responded to my message, should I follow up with an email a week later? Trying to find the line between enthusiastic and being a weirdo.

I think another offer might be coming soon but I really want a shot at this job.

How do I be a decent manager to a coworker who's upset I've been promoted twice in two years and they haven't? We started out as coworkers, became decent friends after a few good moments, but went back to simply coworkers after they flubbed a few projects and I had to step in to clean up. I'm non-confrontational but year-end reviews are right around the corner and I'm worried about having to act professional to someone who I got too close with and who now hates me.

Which agencies are going through layoffs

What’s the best social media hack campaign ?

ACDs in tech, what are your salary ranges if you live outside of SF + what city are you in? I’m in SF (big tech co) and given covid, been thinking about leaving but curious what numbers I would be looking at in Seattle vs LA or other cities with tech companies. Thank you!

Thoughts on the new Vegas slogan “What happens here, only happens here”?Apparently people hate it. I think it’s a good spin on the classic “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.”

Wet mouth noises...😖😖😖🗯🔥

What’s the shortest amount of time you’ve been in a mixing session before asking the producer for a new sound guy/girl?

Any tricks for keeping up with social content trends? Anyone know of a site that tracks them?

Have layoffs been finished for the year or are more coming?

Full time creatives who freelance: how do you get these freelance opportunities?

Currently working full time and have no intention of going fully freelance any time soon, but would love to know the best places/sites to look for these freelance opportunities that allow you to do your full-time responsibilities on top of some freelance work.

Do first 🐟 responders to a post have a responsibility for setting up the tone (positive/negative/off topic)?? Asking for a friend who noticed a trend😊 (For which this may turn into a demo...)

Kudos to the man on the train next to me who has his ticket around his neck, his glasses in his hand and a full sleeping mask on. 😴

New place I’m at is complete anarchy. Only here for a month. One of the account managers is working 14 hour days and is a bout to crack ... so I mention it to my “manager” or na
