The new astronomer ad with Gwyneth Paltrow reminds me of how interesting advertising can be when done right. Though not sure if the PR team or the creative team is responsible for. But three cheers for marketing as a whole!

On another time, a younger me would have loved the Porsche Heist ad. Now, however, the concept just feels dated (and a bit lite for Porsche). Fun to shoot tho. Am I the only one?

Hello all,

I had a quick question

Had a call with audit leaders last week and were told that they haven't finalized the office building and they will get possession of the new building in Pune only by Jan 2023.

Currently they just have the ITS with the seating capacity of 30 people.

Now for audit they want us to go to office 2 days every week. How are we supposed to do that when they don't even have an office? But they are still adamant to get us back to office location by June 1.

Does anyone else ever feel like commenting on those dumb inspirational LinkedIn posts that recruiters and HR people make? “He did have a resume...so I gave him MINE...” stfu Donna, no you didn’t.

Used Gliem for Reg and Roger for BEC and Aud. Really liked Roger though but heard its not good enough for Far.
Please recommend any good review course for FAR

It took the horrific and completely inexcusable death of George Floyd to move the racism issue to the forefront. And while it’s a crime of a much lesser degree, with different circumstances, what’s it going to take to get ageism properly addressed? Intelligent thoughts/debate requested only please.

Without asking or confirming, account lead booked an in-person client meeting that requires travel. Who books ~any~ major client meeting without first checking with the team ?

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people. Account people should have a good understanding of how much effort and time goes into a project. Project Managers are missing a lot of context so blind leading blind.

I've received an offer from another agency and my manager says he needs to see it before a counter offer. He says it's GroupM policy. Is that true? Thank you!

In your opinion, what advertising/branding/experiential agencies should someone targeting greater San Diego and Los Angeles go after? (Yes, it is very expensive to live in California)

Remember The Woo? Yeah, me neither. Well, they cut everyone’s pay (except mgmt of course) by 1/4 to get the small biz gov loan, and used it to hire a $500k/yr mgmt head. Agency still working barebones

Feel free to call out any top talent from an agency not listed above.

Time to hire—I've seen dozens of fledgling lists/databases of available creative talent & diverse talent. Which ones are people actually using?

I have an idea that I think could change the shape and makeup of the industry, and reduce discrimination in the hiring process.

I need to find developers however. Any idea where to look. Self funded

Is anyone else having trouble just BEING back at the office… for a full day? Even if it’s hybrid. It’s like driving me insane just sitting here in silence and making small talk from 9-5:30. I feel so trapped.
