Thanks for posting. Interesting to see who is hiring !

📌 72andSunny employees decreased by -12% in the last six months.

I’d love to see this chart for Minneapolis agencies.

Thanks for posting! Would love to see it on NYC specific locations

Droga looooool

It’s not always a bad thing when an agency gets smaller. Fat needs to be trimmed when you’re trying to fix an ingrained problem.

Hi!!

So someone I know asked HR about a boot policy. When he found out that there wasn’t one, but his boss said there was (who gave the guys $ for boots and the claimed it on his expense reimbursements as something else) the boss got mad at him for askingHR (and in trouble for the expense reimbursements) and then 2 days later laid off my friend. There appears to be no notice of bad performance and this person always was the first person on the job site ready to work. Thoughts?

So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android). I completed the coding assessment and now they want me to go through a round of 5 hour interviews next week. Is there a good chance I'll be hired if engineering managers are reaching out to me? I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?

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?

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell.

I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.
