The global consolidation & commoditization of creative advertising has led to some of the most evil, craven behavior in recent business history. Agency leaders are instructed to fear, and their primal fear ripples outward to the thousands of working people across the industry. We are all “on” 24/7 to protect our livelihoods, while holding companies scheme on ways to increase margin. It’s giving late stage capitalism, and it absolutely sucks. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Hello fishes, can someone suggest me how much should I ask Infosys in CTC for job role front end developer having 2.8 years of experience. Can someone please suggest me. Current CTC 4 lpa

Would tech ib (m&a) be more affected than say Healthcare/pharma ib in an economic downturn?

Full-time, but doing my first moonlight freelance job. I want this to be the first of many. Should I start an LLC?

Any attorneys out there practicing dependency and adoption law? I practice in PA but I’d love to hear from child and youth advocates in different jurisdictions about your best practices. I’d also love to hear from managers in this field how best to support and train new attorneys with the challenges of representing kids who are abused and neglected. Thanks!

Anyone have insight into the iProspect team in LA and their Social team? Currently interviewing there. Thanks I’m advance!

Hi all! I’ll be relocating from NYC to Orlando, FL. I was hoping to get an idea of the average salary range for outpatient pediatric clinic positions. Thanks in advance !!

Anyone here work in-house at a bank/financial services? Curious about comp numbers given the lack of transparency (compared to law firm salaries)…

ZS fish, possible to come in and work 50-55 hours a week? Or should I expect 60+? Interested in firm & work but just can’t keep working from 9-10 every day anymore. Wondering if I should apply or just hang up the hat and go to industry

Currently an assurance senior 3 at EY (promoting to manager in Oct). Want to get insight or anyone who made transfer from one big 4 to another. Was it worth it? What’s the bump in salary? How hard was the transition for you (new terminology, tech, firm culture, etc)? Don’t want to think the grass is always greener on the other side, but I’ve seen so many people made the move to EY from other big 4 and they make much more than I do because of the switch (same city same service line same level).

Hi Fishes ,

I am 8 years of experience in data analytics and data visualisation . I am currently working in deloitte usi as sr consultant .
I want to move abroad for jobs .Please suggest me effective portals to apply for countries like UK and Ireland.

When do you think associates are usually let go in small practice groups that are currently being overwhelmed with work? Is it when it starts to slows down or when they already have a candidate to replace you? Just trying to figure out how long I have after annoying a partner 😂.

Has anyone attended HackerX events? I'm wondering how the experience was and if you felt you built a brand with good candidates.

Anyone find themselves apologizing for everything, even stuff other people messed up? If I’m just relaying info and that turns out to be wrong, I still am the one to apologize. Especially if it’s to attorneys or partners. Why do I do this?

Any production company recos for short film work? Production budget is pretty small, approx 10k for the actual shoot (not including talent etc)

Does anyone use treasures for reading and spelling? I can’t find vocab and spelling word lists anywhere. First year teacher here 😬☺️

Trying to get ahead of my caseload feels like trying to climb a hill made of loosely-packed pebbles. No matter how much I scrabble, I’m sliding closer and closer to the bottom.

How do you get caught up (or even ahead) when you’re always behind? Assume that all things that can be offloaded have been offloaded. I cannot take one more all nighter trying to get a motion drafted two days before the deadline because I couldn’t get to it earlier.

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.

We take ourselves, and what we do, a hell of a lot too seriously. Why is that?

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

How do we measure OOH these days? Anybody?

Best work of 2019 so far?

Finally wrote the 3 social scripts 2 hours before they were due when I was briefed over 2 weeks ago, what are you doing?

Do you guys touch type? How long did it take you to learn? lol

If I grow an awesome, thick beard of flowing chestnut hair, will I look highly creative?

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...)

What do y'all know about Konrad NY?

If you're a junior and you come into the fold with a shitty attitude off the rip, you will get none of the good briefs. Don't you get that?!

I'm reading this book on boundaries. In the work section it says I should tell my boss that I can't work after 5 PM. Knowing that advertising work commonly goes past 5 PM...would my job be in danger if I said that?
There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?

What’s the WLB at Droga like?

Best cities and agencies for brand strategists? Open to US or international.

If you got fired today would you have a Bach up plan? What would it be?

Dogs in offices are cool, but who's offering some comfy siesta benefits? 😴💤

Where are all the proper ACDs at? Either it's senior/mid creatives who have been promoted too early or ACDs who did the job for a year and are now freelancing as creative directors.

Here’s to hoping the start of the new Serena Lincoln navigator ad is the end of the Mathew mcconaughey Lincoln Navigator ads

Future 'Havas Health & You'ers (yes I know terrible name)... what's the verdict. Are they moving the 200 Hudson folks to 200 Madison?

Project Managers. Are any of your companies hiring a junior PM? I've been looking and not having a ton of luck.
