Trying to decide if I should call someone out: a creative I worked with a few years ago updated her portfolio, and copied my layout and a lot of my language (copied and pasted a bunch of my write ups).
Should I let it go, reach out, or call her out publicly?

Is it a nice idea to be close to your employees?

Is long hair a bad thing in corporate?

Client gets distracted driving ticket. Pros adds no ops charge but it’s not on the ticket. Issue or not? He hasn’t received a new ticket.

I get it, women in engineering are a bit of a rarity. But it feels like my coworkers don't talk around me and it's really awkward. Sometimes I wish I could just blend in

What’s the most ridiculous thing you’ve said yes to at work?

My boss asked me to take care of some of the details of a project for her—the stuff that isn't really my area of expertise. And now I feel like a shirker because I haven't been able to finish them yet.

I think there should be more males caretakers in this world. Some of my clients just feel more comfortable with a guy and it's kind of sad how often they say I'm the only male they could find.

Third yet at a firm in a major market (not NYC). Pay is slightly below market and bonuses are not market either. What is the going rate for a holiday gift for a secretary that I was assigned to 2 months ago but has done some work for me through the year and also a paralegal that I have worked with all year?

I recently joined Microsoft and see there is lot of internal politics ..i am not sure about all teams.but only my team

Managers are assigning good works to people who are close to them or favourite rather than good people ...is it true in all teams or only in my team..also it's not my individual opinion evryone gossiping the same in my team

Fashion Q: what kinds of pants do you guys wear day-to-day? I know skinny jeans are considered “out,” but super baggy mom jeans are not flattering on my small frame. I wear leggings when I’m WFH, but I want to look slightly more put-together/fashionable outside my home

What does everyone wear for client meetings in a WFH setting

How do you handle it when a direct report reacts negatively during a performance review?

Kippot — do any of you wear one at client sites? How do you message that with your firm and the client firm if there’s comments?

I need a pick me up - what's the most absurd thing you've ever witnessed or heard about happening at work?

Random question, my boss wants me to become a notary so I can handle notarizing all of the official documents myself. Has anyone else been asked to do this for their employer? Is it ethical?

If an employee files a complaint about workplace behavior, do you treat them differently? I'm faced with reporting an SM for bullying and finding it near imposible to believe that it won't (cont'd)

I think I’m about to get my first experience of getting in trouble with a partner for work that I actually already sent for review and followed up on multiple times (and brought up during calls). Stay tuned… 😑

I am only 4 months into being a surgical coordinator. I love the position itself however I am struggling to adapt into my new work environment. My position puts me in a place where I need to interact with my new coworkers but they are not as welcoming as I expected. There is also another surgical coordinator however I have come to find from other staff that there is a long history of her running other staff away and not fully training other surgical coordinator staff properly. Any suggestions?

I have a partner who routinely ignores emails or responds to them several weeks later. He has to approve every single document sent to the client or the court, which means you have a physically go to his office to ask him to review something. Half of the time you go to meet with him in person, he’s either on a call or otherwise busy. I find that this basically creates more work and makes meeting deadlines extremely difficult. Is this normal?

I'm trying to frame my answer to the leadership question. I once talked to my mom about how I was selected as CEO in a group project. It was because of my strong technical skills+connections(I already know 80% of the group)+activeness. My mom said that's exactly what she values in the professional setting. Can I answer the question in this way during interviews? I feel like it's not the common approach since this answer does not involve any specific actions, but could potentially stand out.

I can sense resource cut in coming few month in MasterCard India in non technical profiles. Anyone else feel the same ? Should we be cautious.

Is anyone able to recommend a recruiter in the NYC area? Second year associate looking for Labor & Employment opportunities at mid-to-large sized firms. Thanks!!

Has anyone tried to do the Rice online MBA while being a junior corporate associate? Does anyone think this is doable? I want an MBA because I eventually want to pivot from law but the opportunity cost right of completely leaving my position is too much.

At each increment/appraisal management giving excuses for not giving a good hike they say kindly add more degree/certification to your profile
Why don't they advise these thing the whole year

They only give more n more load of work during the time and say take more responsibilities do work independently the more experience you have the bigger your ctc will be but things change

What’s the most ridiculous thing you’ve said yes to at work?

I’ve been freelancing at a bigger NYC agency for a while and just found out that some of the FT creatives/account folks with significant responsibility make <45k. How is that okay?

Is it bad or is there a polite way to ask an agency to see their work when they haven’t updated their site for a few years, during an interview?

Alright y’all.. I started a new job about 3 months ago and I have basically hit the ground running. I’m kind of new to my industry (SEO) and my team is INCREDIBLY smart! continued...

Has anyone transferred or moved from a US agency to a Toronto-based one? Asking for a self 😬

Who is your favorite director you have ever worked with and why?

When sending a cold email to a recruiter, should you include a reason why you’re interested in the agency? Or keep it short and sweet with your book, resume and what you’re looking for?

What do you want for Christmas?

Anyone else notice the creepy ass cat smile at the end? Who’s responsible for this?? 🙀https://youtu.be/wZ9-cBtMrkI

I’m a designer on an in-house design team in the mortgage industry. Our senior designer passed on managing our team and they’ve asked me to fill the role unofficially until the end of the year as training, then make it official.

I don’t know what the previous managers have made and I’m not sure of the range yet, but how would you go about salary negotiations?

What we really need to know is, which clients are yet to have their brand logos dissected and distanced.

How’s your WFH workload, all? This week: Mon: 10 am - 2 am. Tues: 9 am-8 pm. Wed: 10 am-9 pm. Thurs: 10 am - 8 pm. Fri: 9:30 am-8 pm. Sat: 10 am - 7 pm. Sun: noon - 4 pm, then 7 pm - 11 pm.
This ... is ... not ... sustainable! I’m the sole earner and have a kid, so “just quit!” during a pandemic is not it - and “setting boundaries” ain’t easy when I’m always reachable by text/zoom/email. I’m fortunate to have a job, but damn. Working From Home = Working Forever From Everywhere. And it sucks.

What’s the best way of selling work to your boss if he’s just not current on new stuff? I keep getting handed references from some directors from 10 years ago and I want to say “hey, what about something from this year, not last century”

Curious to know how closely you (creatives) work with your strategy/ planning counterparts. What is the dynamic you share?

Many weeks working on emails, please remind me there are other projects out there. What are you making right now?

I hate it when I hear an AD say they "can't draw." No one is expecting a work of art, just a shitty sketch that illustrates the idea.

I am beyond stuck in my first 1.5 years of my career.

I was over promised opportunities at my first gig and then Covid hit. Leading me to have no portfolio worthy pieces from this 💩 agency with nothing great in sight. (place hasn’t won a pitch in my entire time here + lost clients)

I’m juggling re-vamping my site and a side project to hopefully make my book more robust.

With no kind of leadership or mentor, I’m just figuring out how to dig myself out of this hole. Any advice for this chump?

Do you ever fear taking the first step in a project? If so, how do you overcome that?

I am in the beginning of a repositioning of my own brand and I am really struggling to take the first tangible steps outside of research.

Thoughts on Bo Burnham's Inside? It's honestly depressing not only in content but also to see one person create something so amazing just on their own. Here I am struggling just to make an alright ad, meanwhile I should probably just forget ads and actually make something decent instead. Sigh.
