What’s going on with Publicis Health these days? Are they firing or hiring? Is CoLab still a thing? I thought I heard that there were layoffs there very recently.

Hi everyone!

I am relatively new to consulting space. I worked with Deloitte in a research role, but have joined an MBB firm at a more front end role.
I have a slightly unconventional question to ask (might be political too), but since this is an anon platform, I hope to get honest answers.

I wish to know does people care about your looks in consulting (specially when you are on a client facing role?)

I am an Indian male, and I have acne (not a lot, but considerable). Cont. in comments

When do you all think it’s time to exit to take your startup on full time? Is there a certain income threshold you’d want it to hit combined with personal savings?

I went through the entire recruitment process and got selected for IBM ISL. Now I am being told by the HR that they are unable to release offer as there is a hiring freeze.

Can any one please tell me if its correct or just an excuse not to give me offer. If its true, when will this freeze be removed?

Best consulting companies in the social sector?

How does your firm measure utilization? I work for a small boutique that defines it as utilization = number of billable hours/2,080 and full bonus payout occurs at 80% plus.

Probably a foolish question: are bonuses based off of raw billable hours or billable hours modified by the partners?

A friend of mine is looking to join DDB Anderson Toronto as a PM. Any advice regarding the company or role?

If I was a junior on a team during a campaign launch, is that something I can put in my book? I helped during the concepting phase, was responsible for keeping the boards up to date, and wrote a lot of the supporting materials (print, social etc) but obviously I was not on the shoot or the lead on writing the script. As long as I’m clear about my role is that acceptable?

Art Supervisor.

Seriously: why so many levels? Sounds like a lot of BS… basically should be: Art Director, Creative Director, CCO. Agree?

I found out last night that a senior copywriter at my agency who does little follow-up and passes off work to others (read: me) to handle when there are questions from team members…was recently promoted to copy supervisor.

Trust me when I say that this person can’t supervise putting toothpaste on a toothbrush. Must be nice to be liked by the right people.

Did Pinterest lift their ban on advertising branded/unbranded pharma? It got brought up in a brainstorm today and almost spit out my coffee...

Friendly tip: Don't burn bridges even with those who are leaving - our industry is small (even in Manhattan) and you will almost certainly see that person again if you stay in pharma

Maybe this is the socialist in me but shouldn’t Moderna and Pfizer waive their patent exclusivity for their Covid vaccines? Don’t we have a moral obligation for the world to vaccinate as many people as quickly as possible?

It blows my mind that many countries won’t be able to vaccinate most of their people until 2023. There should be access to vaccine generics

Creatives, how do you show your pharma work on your portfolio? Under a password protected page? Emailed pdf? In person only?

How do we get them to shorten the consumer ISI? It serves no ethical purpose and physicians hate it. Here’s my version:

Would you interview at a place you knew people could somehow inform someone at your current agency about?

I know this may not be a popular comment;

I don’t understand the overvalue of “I have oncology experience, or I do have dermatology experience”.

What I do really care is to know, regardless which disease you’ve worked on, if you did something great, disruptive, found a new way of doing something, did a great/smooth launch…
