Thoughts on BBDO New York? Seems like they’ve made some good hires over the last year or so, is it a good place for creatives?

Can you give specifics? What’s going on there? When I was starting out they were always a place I wanted to work (many moons ago)

I worked there a decade ago, so maybe not super helpful now

But it was one of the best experiences of my professional career.

It was so big when I was there that it felt like lots of little agencies within one big one. So, individual experiences probably depend largely on which accounts you're working on.

I NEED HELP WITH CREDIT SCORE issues: Two months ago my credit score went down by 30 to 40 points due to dad missing credit card payment by a day (i got added to as authorized user on his credit card for me to build credit but now I’m filled with regret). I was devastated by it. This past month I have been making more payments and paid off my aug statement in full thinking it will boost my credit score. But I don’t know why it went down another 10 points. More below:
