what’s anomaly ny like these days?

How soon after starting a new job is it acceptable to update LinkedIn? I know there’s no hard and fast rules but what’s the protocol?

Anyone in downtown bk or Williamsburg wants to join our board game group?

We are currently a group of 3, but one person is moving to west coast soon, which reduces our board game options and complexity!

We tend to hangout with limited groups of friends and meet up at least every other week. So ideally just want to find 1-2 more like-minded people to join us.

If you are interested, please leave a comment with what are your top 3 board games and a description of your personality :)

Hi ,
My manager told he raised my ITA promotion. Where i can track that in ultimatix?

It’s so fucking hard to make friends in SF.

Dad got laid off. Drinking got worse. Attempted assault on sis and mom. Had to put up in hotel. No clue on next steps (legal and personal). Project is complete shit show and SM is not getting it. Idk man...

Looking to meet new folks in NJ area. Preferring couples (without children), who are chill, likes playing board games, enjoy outdoorsy activities and are vaccinated. We are in our early 30s and are LGBTQIA+ friendly.

P.S. not being disrespectful towards folks who have kids but we have learnt from experience that we are not at the same conversational plane with them.

Hi Guys
I have 6.5+ YoE in production support working for Barclays Bank IB portfolio. Can I get any referrals for BNY. Skill set Autosys, Unix scripting, SQL, Jira, Agile methodology, ITRS, Nolio, User & Application support, adept at incident, change and problem management areas.

Is current layoffs only happening in Amazon US offices or Amazon India offices as well ?

Can we all agree that the wardrobe department for the new (and original) “Coming To America” slay it? I wish wardrobe on production could be as killer as them.

Has anyone had a manager they just don’t vibe with/relate to? I’ve been trying to connect but I haven’t gotten them on my side yet. How did you manage to crack the ice?

Laid off at PwC. It was more of a relief than anything. Anyone have any knowledge on openings at smaller (but not necessarily boutique) firms? Human Capital / Change Management related field.

I'm in a litigation, about 9 months in. Is it normal that I spend majority of my time making bundles for my partners (printing, binding, moving docs in a different order whenever there are new documents or he wants to add stuff) reviewing documents and making tables (e.g. dates, which documents are from where), and the only legal work is like notices of admission, list of documents, the occasional research? I'm so bored and I want to quit but I don't know if I have unrealistic expectations.

Hello people,
I am looking for a job change. Currently I'm working as a business execution associate in Wells Fargo and have 4.5 YOE.

I judge the company I work every time they misspell my name even though I’ve corrected it over and over again. It tells me they don’t care and don’t want to make the effort. It’s in my email, my email signature, on my profile, etc. How hard is it to look it up and spell it correctly?!

Failed NNN, there’s always next year

Sr UX Researcher / Chicago
Masters degree & 5+ YoE
Passed all Google interviews and currently finding a team. Was being considered for L4/L5. Any advice to land on L5 (Sr Researcher) and what’s a fair base & TC for L4 vs. L5? Thanks!

Any other integrated agencies working in Agile across the full agency? Trying to understand how this plays out as we roll it out.

Here’s to hoping the start of the new Serena Lincoln navigator ad is the end of the Mathew mcconaughey Lincoln Navigator ads

So, again my client went with the banner and website design ideas from from their print-based (and cheaper) agency. Now I get to make their garbage. Sometimes I wonder why we bother. #designrant

Yo, can we all just chill? About you know, everything?

When you work late, you get to snoop around the office. Given.

On the job hunt in London and considering a portfolio website. Thoughts on how to manage that with NDAs?

Have you ever seen a client fired in mid-production?

Anytime a client says “thanks for the creative thinking” just know they’re going to kill everything.

O&M Creative: more shuffling still to come? And by shuffling, I mean layoffs too.

I got the job. That is all.

I like everything about my agency except my partner. Do I leave if they don’t have the budget to get me a new one?

Is possible to have "real friends" in the ad world? Do you trust your coworkers or do you feel that they are going to throw you under the bus just to save their asses?

Somebody please in tomorrow’s WPP Global Townhall meeting ask if they’re going to give us a cost to living inflation raise. A bonus. Gas cards. Anything. They are taking questions. I don’t have the balls. I can’t go through another meeting hearing them brag that WPP has earned millions and millions.

Need to update my LinkedIn page. Anyone have tips on the best things to call out? Clients, projects etc?

How does one proceed if/when receiving job offers from two shops within the same holding company? Asking for a friend.....

Pretty over agency life, best brands to go client-side?

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?

Tips for dealing with procrastination?
