Database for M&A precedents? Trying to look for a share purchase agreement from a 2021 acquisition. Didn’t find it on EDGAR. Is there anyway to make sure the document is not publicly available? How can I get access to this agreement?

Hello everyone,

Looking to switch from graphic design to ux / ui. Lots of branding experience, but not so much in ux/ui (currently in school) what are hiring managers looking for in terms of portfolios. Any examples?

I have been going on interviews and noticed 2 department heads already assume I was laid off or fired due to a 4 months gap. I explained I left my last role due to short term health issues that have been resolved. Not even sure how to respond when they assume. Any advise? Thanks!

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC. Should I stay it out and wait for TC to align or take the promotion and jump ship bc I will likely get paid more elsewhere given how recruiters/other companies eat up hiring recently promoted ppl from other firms?

Is crime in Houston as bad as people say it is? I feel like I've been hearing about how awful the city is getting to be non-stop, but I just don't see it.

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all. I personally don’t see too many issues working at either Amazon or Facebook because I work at Deloitte where I’m sure we have many questionable clients and worked in financial services before. Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?

Anyone here who made the exit from Big 4/MBB consulting to a VC? If so, I’d love to hear about how the experience is so far. (Not to mention the WLB and comp!) I’m considering a career change but have no one in my network I can go to for insights. Thx! 🙏🏾

I have an offer from @Publicis Sapient and @Genesys , which will be better in terms quality of work and work life balance and appraisals.. Please help

Has anyone in your company heard the word (cross-connect) or (leased Line) perhaps you have heard this from the network team at your financial institution?

How many times do we have to tell you, Karen, posting on 2 Instagram accounts doesn't mean you own a marketing agency 👀

Is anyone's agency currently looking for a Senior or ACD position?

Been in the strat game for over a decade; I’ve realized that a strong department with clear process that is built on end to end problem solving (with time to think) is when I’m happiest vs this award show / case study grind. What are some agencies you all work or have worked at, that value strategy as a department and not a creative case study farm? Looking to figure out what’s next.

Who is everyone voting for this coming city election? I don't want another four years of John Tory.

Hello all, I work full time as an RN at the VA. I’ve been looking for a side hustle to do on my own time. I would love to review cases such as prior authorization, records for 2nd opinions, etc. The positions that I come across generally require a commitment of at least 24 hrs which is not feasible. Anyone know of any opportunities?

In NYC for the first time ever...and I 110% hate it. Maybe some of the boroughs are better, but manhattan is so gross and crowded. Why on earth do people like this place?

Anyone have discounts for standup desk or ergo chair? The home office is here to stay…

When you know where you want to work, who do you reach out to first — the hr/talent/recruiter or directly to the CD or ECD depending on level? Or both?

Anyone having issues with their Mac after updating to Mojave? My machine is running like an old Atari and creative suite is essentially inoperable. And worst of all, Spotify won’t even open 😫

Who here is freelancing while working full time?

Which one would you pick?

Big name shop. Shitty account, but you get opportunities beyond that.

Shop with bad reputation that lacks PR and hardly enters awards but has a lot of book-worthy projects.

I have an associate's degree in graphic design and work designing wedding stationery. I've been at my company since 2016, and am now a design consultant - speaking to customers directly and creating custom artwork and designs for them. I know I'm underpaid (50k/year in the SF Bay Area) but I thought the benefits and stability were worth it. I'm now severely burnt out (most of my team is) and not sure which way to go, or how to grow. Any tips/advice?

Thanks!

Did you start a brand (see: side hustle) so you could make without having to bend to a client’s opinion? I want to make something simple/sustainable (something I’ll stick with). What should I make?

Living outside of NYC and remote interviewing for a job, landing an offer, then relocating to NYC -> anyone ever done this?

Just became an ACD. Im in a limbo. Half of the time im being treated as a Super Senior AD and the other half im being treated as a Almost CD. Then when im scoped over work that my CD and I oversee, some people are asking me how does my role differ from the CD’s, as they tend to look at me as an unnecessary layer for approvals. In a way, i do the job so well that i get asked to do more AD projs and guide more projs — but then: wtf does my CD do? They mostly just 👍🏻what i direct n approve

What do you think a GCD needs to know/have done in their career to be a good GCD?

Do agencies outside of pharma have Art Supervisor roles? Or does it go Sr AD > ACD. I just got promoted to Art Sup & honestly don’t know if so should update my Linkedin since i’m working...

I worked with a Junior AD that skipped college and went straight to portfolio school. I was mad resentful of him at first, mostly because I wish I would have thought of that and saved $100K.

Just found out I’m getting laid off in two weeks. How do I stay motivated to do work until then?

Is the "we're just trying to gain the clients trust so they'll allow us to make good work spiel," a crock of crap?
