What’s the vibe at McCann Health NY? A post a few days ago said some C suite layoffs happened. Is that good or bad? Looking at a position there (not creative).

We did not have layoffs at McCann Health. Our CCO resigned to be with her kids in Australia. I like it there. It has its challenges but we just keep growing.

That sounds like a pretty great culture! Are you looking for junior strategists/strategy interns perchance?

I’d take it in a pandemic over no job, but I had a bad experience—big egos, over promotion of under-qualified people, and lack of opportunity. Smart and nice people though.

I’d wait a year and see if the business recovers first.

Hello! I’ve been working as a photographer for 15 years both as an employee and a freelancer. I started working full time with my current company a year ago. They’ve just offered me a new position: Creative Services Manager (in house for 4 related brands). I have no official experience in this field and had never heard of it before but feel like it will essentially be a creative director. I will also maintain the photography duties for the time being. Any idea what salary I should ask for?

It’s my second week at this job, was given an assignment to submit jobs into the MLR review system. I did not get the MLR training yet but worked with the existing submissions team and got boss’s approval at the agency to make it happen. Now MLR team asked us to follow the guidelines, and my boss is throwing me under the bus for not “opening” the jobs correctly. I am already breaking down and think I’m a failure, but some people think I’m not being set up for success. Should I move jobs?

I’m burnt out from trying to drive creative solutions for my team and clients. All everyone seems to wants is simple block & tackle tactics that don’t have deeper strategic meat to them. The briefs I read are constantly off strategy and there’s honestly seems to be a lack of common sense (e.g., don’t kick off a tactic the client doesn’t know about).

It sucks even more because pharma is already highly regulated and restrictive with how creative you can be. I just feel so spent and uninspired.
