Thoughts on possible LA?

I struggle to understand the overwhelming buzz and excitement about a Starbucks roastery coming to Chicago.
Has anyone been to one of their roasteries and found something decent?

Hi sharks,

18LPA CTC in India equivalent to how much in US considering all factors??

Looking for a REMOTE Paralegal Position in the Colorado Springs, CO area - preferably in Family or Criminal Law - If anyone knows of anything. If someone knows of a recruiter in that area as well, please let me know!
TIA!

How much do you make and how many years experience? I’m a senior para at a mid sized firm in Central FL. 10 years experience. I’m making $64k—fair salary?

Any paralegals here working at Nesenoff & Miltenberg LLP in Manhattan? How’s the culture, pay, and work and life balance?

At what point you start coming on radar if you have been on beach for significant amount of time? Like Since thanksgiving . Is there a schedule to let go?

I have been offered a position at a non-US B4 with a 2 year path to partner. I know one of the partners at the local firm and have the support of the regional service line lead, and am bringing a specialized skill set they are trying to open a new business around. The KPIs seem achievable and I’ll be in charm school to help build support within that timeline. Most of me thinks a 2 year path under these circumstances realistic but my inner skeptic is jaded. Anything I might have missed?

SM promoted from M salary range? EY

Need an opinion on the Vanguard VIGAX/VIGIX. I’m index riding with that fund but am wondering if I should shift my risk and go with VT or another Vanguard fund. Thoughts?

Factor is literally the only coin I’ve found that is actually generating revenue. Just sayin

Does anyone have faith in polkadot? I bought because it had good staking APY and i like most of what i read about them, plus Gavin wood is legit.

Didn’t occur to me until later that it was idiotic to buy at $33 when it started at $2 not very long ago. I sat in losses from 2017 buys until this year so you’d think I’d have learned my lesson lol. That said, i think this project is solid? Worth holding until 2025 if need be?

Does Cognizant reimburse monthly Broadband expenses?

Anyone up for grabbing a drink tonight ? Plano, Frisco?

Which major companies are open to 100% remote? I don’t want to leave Philly but want to go in house

What's a fair amount of resignation notice to give when you are a C-level/executive committee member?

My AD coworker (not currently my partner) just got hired at a new agency and wants to bring me along as his writer. I'd love to join. He told the recruiter at that agency about me and sent my book. I also have another former coworker (creative) who put in a good word for me.

Should I reach out to the recruiter, too? Or is that overkill after two recos? I don't want to be bothersome. But I do want to show interest..

This all happened on Friday, if that matters. Thanks!

Lemme get your Evansville Indiana recos

What do y'all know about Konrad NY?

I have an interview at 9am, during a snowstorm. Better get that job.

Serious question - which one lasts longer: real Donald Trump or Marcel?

Are there any agencies where creatives actually have good work-life balance in LA, SF or anywhere else for that matter? Like no weekends or no working more than a 40-50hr week? Or do I have to go in house for this? Or do I have to leave advertising altogether?

I feel like I’m either getting burnt out by work or trying to heal myself from it. There’s never much time for real life and I don’t want to be on my death bed reminiscing like, “Wow, I made some cool ads.” Nothing scares me more.

How much do senior strategists in LA make? Moving from NY to LA and wondering how much of a hit in pay I’ll take from lower cost of living or whatever recruiters will say

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

I laugh during awkward situations. The other day someone called me out on laughing. It was awkward.

My browser history is failing me and hope y’all can help! I recently stumbled upon a website where some ad folks had compiled a bunch of idea/conceptual thinking approaches and if you clicked through there were past spots that had utilized that idea / way of thinking. I wanted to share it with a mentee and can’t track it down. It was a simple layout: grid of images w/headline naming the idea … Sound familiar?

Has anyone successfully transferred teams in the same agency? At a prior agency when my partner & I did, it was an “issue”. Trying to do something now but respect everyone. Ppl are just so protective.

Raise your hand if you feel like you actually DON’T get steam rolled by your CD or higher up during a pitch?

Thank you all for existing on Fishbowl and for being such a supportive community. It’s been a difficult year, but at the end of the day, I’m glad to have people to commiserate/celebrate with ❤️🙂❤️

Hey, does anyone know the starting salary for a social strategist in NY?

Creatives who left for tech. What is it exactly that you do now? Is it still writing or art directing? Or a different creative role? Hearing about people leaving for tech so I want to know what it means exactly aside from the benefits.

Are there any good agencies in Colorado? Ideally Boulder. How is CP+B there?

Has anyone ever worked with Kate Spade’s husband? I hear he works in Advertising. Sad day for fashion today
