Aaaand D1 and D1 demonstrating effectively why this job is quite shortly most of the time. Well done d-bags

Shortly... shitty... iPhone autocorrect ftw.

First engagement OP? The self-perceived importance wears off quick. Then it’s just more grind.

Where tf did I say I was important? Just that the job was interesting. Jagoff

Hello Fishes,
I have been offered Lead Software Developer G140 in IQVIA. How many years of experience needed for that role? How were the hikes in IQVIA for BI Tool projects last year/ this year? were there any firing in Pandemic?
And how is the flexibility in terms of changing technology/project. Current project work does not seem to be much challenging so can I ask for project change within a few months of joining if I find the work mundane?
Please help.

Testing TV files for Extreme Reach

Is there a website or portal you can use to test TV files before submitting? I have a client who handles their own traffic, so anytime Extreme Reach rejects or even questions something that is not a problem, it gets kicked back and a bunch of clients get CC'd on an email saying: "this failed QA."

At every other agency I've worked on, we would be able to handle any kickback or tweaks internally with zero client involvement. I'd love a way to test files.

Hey everyone! I am a CPA, started at PwC, now the assistant controller at a small/medium sized Ag company. Thus far, the plan has been to follow the CFO path. But recently I have been longing for more social/client facing interactions. I am very extroverted. I love meeting and connecting with new people and would like to incorporate that into my career. Any thoughts on possible career paths that would combine my experience in accounting with a more socially fulfilling job?

Thanks I’m advance!
