To fellow Agency Producers. how often are you doing print producing, as well as video production? My agency doesn’t have a print producer in house, and I am finding myself doing that job + the normal video production of campaigns we continually do. I feel over worked and underpaid. Any advice or thoughts?

Everyone seems to make so much money on here and I’m only making 51k as an SMM. I know we’re the "bottom of the totem pole” in most agencies but is this TOO low? Work in NYC, two years experience

If I receive an offer in Austin but end up moving to NYC in the future, does google adjust the compensation? From my understanding I will receive a lower offer based on my location but curious if they apply the same logic to moves after joining?

I’m thinking about transitioning to In-House from a big law firm where I practice Employee Benefits. Will employers consider me without the typical “corporate” or “litigation” experience?

I currently work at a medium sized firm and have about two years experience in personal injury litigation. The billable hours and lack of work life balance are really getting to me and I am looking to switch to something else out of litigation, preferably in house. I am also looking to relocate to a different state. How do I go about properly marketing myself to companies that might not take my relocation and minimal experience seriously?

If I applied to a company and sent a message to the recruiter on LinkedIn, but they haven’t accepted my connection request or responded to my message, should I follow up with an email a week later? Trying to find the line between enthusiastic and being a weirdo.

I think another offer might be coming soon but I really want a shot at this job.

I've seen quite a few people make jokes about being "aged out" of advertising. Could someone please explain what that looks like and when that typically happens? Forgive the dumb question, I'm a newbie to the industry so I'm a bit confused. Wouldn't agencies want people with more experience?

What’s the most time you guys have taken in between jobs? Is 1 week enough? What’s the perfect amount of time? I have the possibility to take 3 weeks… is that too much?

Which agencies are going through layoffs

Had such a great interview with an agency this morning. Then I look at their Glassdoor and it's horrible reviews- like the opposite of what the recruiter and group account director told me.

What do I do? I have a really good gut feeling about this but now scared from Glassdoor. UGH finding a job is so hard.

Just had a great networking call with someone at a company I’d like to work for… should I follow up asking to be connected to another person on the team? I hear it is a good networking strategy.

How would you ask someone you just spoke with to be introduced to someone else?

Also, any general tips for maintaining a good relationship with someone you just networked with?

CDs. How many brands do you look after? Trying to find out if I'm stretched too thin, or not thin enough.

What y'all know about Space150?

What’s everyone’s agency doing for employee appreciation day?

I'm reading this book on boundaries. In the work section it says I should tell my boss that I can't work after 5 PM. Knowing that advertising work commonly goes past 5 PM...would my job be in danger if I said that?
There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?

Fishies - my shop is looking for a freelance copywriter. DM me if you are interested and available for a few hours/week.

Looking to jump from nonprofit marketing to advertising. Any recommendations on what I need to get down my resume? Looking for entry level ish, (3 years marketing experience) $65k+

Any advice on how to handle an ECD in charge of your salary who says the only way to get a promotion or even a COL raise of any kind is through winning an award? Not consistently reliable and solid performance. Not keeping the client happy and profitable. “You either win an award, or all ya get is to keep your job.”
And yes, I’m aware leaving is always an option, but eager for any other advice how to navigate.

Not many people seem to care about those agency of the year titles anymore. Especially in the past 2 to 3 years. Even to the winners. Right?

Does anyone feel weird in the DEI space for all the identity politics of representation (which I understand progress is progress!) but it’s still within the system of capitalism because this is still... advertising? - coming from a BIPOC
