I heard it was a sweatshop back in the 90s

It’s a job and that MEANS something! That said, the place hasn’t been relevant in like 2 decades. It would probably just be a paycheck unless you luck out on a particularly interesting account with very talented people.

You knew the place was cooked when Bogusky came back to save it but only lasted like 6 months before pissing off again lol

I loved working there in 2007-2011. It's saddens me to see it decline to a hollow shell. Even people that go back leave in less than a year. So sad. But hey, a pay check is a pay check.

Ask a lot of questions about what accounts you’ll work on and who you’re reporting into. That’ll make or break you.

Beginning to consider going in house (4th, corp) - I really haven’t thought about what I want, partly because I’m not sure what’s out there/attainable. Is it a bad idea to start by applying to a couple positions that interest me and seeing where that gets me? I’ll of course prep for the interviews but am afraid to burn potential bridges if I ultimately decline because I’m still figuring things out.

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.
