Gary doesn't know much about the place either. So at least you'd have that in common.

I worked in LA for a year and a half. I met a lot of cool people. That's about all the good stuff I have to say about that place. Gary is a legend in his own mind. His NY team mostly love him, because he's on the ground there. But a lot of people in the LA office thought he was a joke. Also. They fired 10% of the LA team twice while I was there.

Seriously! I’ve made more work here in a year than anywhere else- and I’ve worked at some of the bigger more traditional shops- Vayner is changing the game

@SC1 no surprise youve made more work - but how's the pay been?

If it's anything like VM NY, then don't expect to have any control over your personal life.

My pay is competitive- it’s all about what you ask for. And sorry you feel that way copywriter 3, it might just be your team/cd though because I don’t feel the same

SC1: I've been out a while, but worked on 4+ teams over two years. Routine 8pm nights. Repeatedly raised flags to multiple CDs, PMs, etc, was told "suck it up," "this is how this industry is sometimes," and "everyone else can do this, why can't you?" Not team-specific, it's institutional to the company.

I am a 32M and have been on several dates with a 23F. We vibe and chemistry is there but a hurdle that she’s been very open with is the difficulty of telling her parents about this (9 year age gap). Completely understand her situation — how do I approach and/or overcome this? What can I do? Anyone had this large of an age gap in their relationships before? Thanks in advance

Hi Recruiters,
Let’s talk cover letters.
What do you think makes a good one? Length? Content? What should definitely be in there and definitely be left out?
What’s the biggest mistake you see people make?
Who is actually reading them? You? The department heads?
Bonus points if you can give insight into the way this works with the Creative Department. (I’m a Copywriter.)

Thanks in advance!
