What is your title and how much vacation do you get?

How do you deal with vacation guilt? I find myself feeling ashamed having to remind folks in meetings that I’ll be unavailable for X amount of time. Just me?

I'm 6 months old at D! Planning early promotion next year.. counselor and pm both are backing me.. I need to go to India for at least 4 weeks in Dec ... most probably would be rolling off from current project by then .. would this vacation hurt my promotion chances coz of utilization etc?

What is reasonable salary growth coefficient when going from FTE to consultant?
My current reasoning is 2x as

What’s been your most impressive/successful salary negotiation when you’ve received an offer? Did you manage to get way more PTO or other perks?

So I just received a job offer through a recruiter & tried negotiating the pto and vacation.

I asked just for a few more days 2-4 but im terrified they might reject the offer all together. I’m definitely over thinking 😭 but I’m hoping they get back to the recruiter before leaving the office for the weekend.

When will the holiday calendar for 2022 be published on LMS?

Does ZS provide MBA sponsorship? If yes, what's the criteria.

When and how do you push back on people senior to you? Fifth year dealing with supersenior associate (11th year) who completely lacks good judgment & common sense. One of those super smart but impractical types. As just one example, he recently called me to tell me to call someone who’s on vacation and ask them to send a calendar invite. I offered to send myself but apparently that wouldn’t work (presumably because it would be efficient & make sense.) At what point (and how) do I Just Say No?

Hey fishes, would be joining the PwC AC DDVIT team soon. Have some questions:

4) are there on-site opportunities? If yes only US or Europe too?

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Anyone have any tips to transitioning from CRC to CRA? Is a CCRC necessary for leveling up?

Hi ,

I have 5 years of experience as a .NET Full stack developer. I am holding offer of 21 LPA and I had HR discussion with Mastercard.

HR is not ready to share the exact budget they have (weird!! because HR usually give the idea of how much they can offer )

HR is asking me to expect something on top of the current offer I am holding.

The opening is for L8. How much offer I should expect from mastercard??

Should i email my boss then follow up with a call? Or the other way around?

The "confrontation" is really difficult for me lol. I actually like my current boss and she's been helpful and made me feel like she looks out for me too. But the new opportunity is too good to pass up on (huge increase to pay. No concerns on the team since ive worked with those people in the past in a different company)

Which style home do you prefer and why?

A recruiter keeps discussing my salary level before sharing my resume with the client. I gave given my level and said I’m willing to discuss based on other benefits etc but feels a bit odd to keep discussing it before even sharing with the company... Is this normal?

Started feeling anxious and overwhelmed and then I remembered this bullshit doesn't matter and no one reads this crap anyway.

Why do you think ZS canceled the internship for the '23 batch? AFAIK they did not do this even during the pandemic. Are the full-time campus placement offers also in danger of being revoked?

I admitted a bunch of people just so that we can have more of a critical mass here. Welcome again comrades! Try and be respectful and above all, no simping for capitalism!

How’s the John St design dept these days? Is there even one?

Is our industry as competitive as some say? I see a lot of people saying this and I work with a bunch of hacks (myself included). It felt like a little while ago agencies were begging to hire new talent, and most couldn’t find new people. Is it really that hard to get a job at an agency? Maybe I’m just out of touch being in this career for so long.

Any creative directors (any level, CD/GCD/ACD) you would move agencies to work for or learn from? Who and why?

Is freelancing paid media or social media lucrative in Toronto? Looking to make the jump to that

Is anyone's agency currently looking for a Senior or ACD position?

No one talks about anomaly, how are they? Also interested in how the design team is there too.

What is the overall sentiment of the talent pool in Toronto? IMO There are a lot of questionable people in this market, how are they employed?
