What are your marketing plans for Mother's Day? I'm in B2B, so it doesn't make sense that we do any specific marketing for Mother's Day. But I am curious to see all the social posts. Companies live Publix, Dove, and Target probably go big

Who knows the email for the creative recruiter at Mother?

I’m my partners only associate and I went on parental leave two weeks ago. I feel horrible for leaving him to handle our cases alone, but am trying to focus on my wife and new baby. That being said, should I still offer to handle minor matters that come in to ease the workload off my boss? He’s been super cool during my entire leave, so I don’t feel pressured to one bit.

What are the best day cares in Houston? Had a baby recently and would like to start narrowing down the options in case I have to get on waitlists! I live in the heights.

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.

Anyone managed to fly their parents down from India to US off late? Cousin’s pregnant, trying to book tickets for early Dec. trying to understand how entry here is playing out here. I know Qatar and Emirates aren’t operational yet for flights from India to US.

For those that work at big4, does maternity leave benefit only kick in if you’ve worked for the firm for at least a year? Or does it apply immediately?

Have people gotten their bonus’ prorated in a year they were on parental leave? Any hunches to tell if it was more less than a straight prorate?

Hi Fishes,

I want to set up a small business in Rajasthan (remote area) for my father, I don’t want him to leave home and stay with family.

Thanks in advance.

I just found out I am pregnant and the person is not a believer. I know i have sinned, and now i am so lost. Abortion has crossed my mind multiple times. Not sure what i am doing posting here, I just needed to vent.

Offtopic: Which is the best health insurance (company) to buy for parents? Please suggest as per prior firsthand experience in claims, settlement, premium etc.

My parent has a star health policy for which the renewal premium is drastically increasing (almost by 50%) every year at age 51.
With such increase I do not think it will be viable for long term. So planning to switch/port.

37 weeks today! We are excited :)) the waiting period is weird though. When will baby come???

I have been married for 3 years. We have been trying to have a baby and found out my husband is shooting blanks and requires surgery to possibly resolve that. Recovery is 4 weeks and he refused. He is also not open to adopting or fostering or using someone else’s sperm. What do I do now?

If a child got injured in an amusement park (due to a negligence on the park's side) what would you consider a reasonable compensation? The injury is minor but did require an emergency room visit in ambulance and 4 weeks of treatment to fully recover. The kid is traumatized though because of the experience she went through.

I’m leaving my job soon but I’m wondering if I should be truthful when I hand in my letter of resignation. There’s a ton of reasons but it boils down to: I’m worth more than they can pay me and I need to pay off these student loans. What should I say?

What steps should I take to become a marketing manager in 4 years? I'm currently a coordinator but I'm very goal-oriented. Determined to achieve this!

Hey I was informed my position was eliminated due to corp restructure. I am a marketing vet with 10 years diverse experience from social to email and both b2b and b2c marketing. I also am about to complete my mba. I love to tell a brands story. Looking for a position at a people first company marketing manager positions or above in Atlanta or remote thanks for your help.

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer. We have a wide variety of needs but don’t necessarily need to have this future person have all these skills. For example we need someone with great copywriting skills and also need someone who is great at digital marketing. This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.

I'm a marketer and I'm having a hard time getting my clients to listen to me.

I have been in marketing for 10 years now. I've worked with hundreds of clients and have been able to increase their sales by over $1 million each year.

But every time I go into a meeting with a new client, they ignore everything I say. They just want to talk about their product. They don't seem interested in learning how to market it better.

Many companies have these strict policies about what you can and cannot post on social media, which is fine and all, but the second you try to address a concern or highlight something in your workplace that could be improved, they will come down on you like the hammer of Thor.

I've been working at the same advertising agency for seven years. My boss just quit to join the competition. Thinking of following her, does anyone have experience switching companies like this?

Are freelance designers actually valued in the field? I've been told a couple times that without agency/company backing, my work means nothing.

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them. Applied 9/1 and on the applicant portal the status still says “in progress.” I got a great internal referral, but I’ve not reached out to the hiring manager. 😬 I know there were a few hundred applicants — what’s a realistic timeline and what could I say to the hiring manager if I reach out to them. Many thanks.
