Whose been laid off recently? I'm curious to know what reason you were given because mine was a straight-up "we've decided to navigate the rest of our journey with AI tools" and I can't tell if that's too straightforward or not these days.

Does last October count? I don't even remember what, if any, justification was given. It was all mealy-mouthed BS. I was too angry to even pay attention. Good on yours for at least shooting straight with you. I would've appreciated that approach a lot more than whatever the hell I got.

I was made redundant over two months ago because they wanted someone with a better skillset (I was hired as a Marketing Assistant with a Manager but they fired the Manager and never hired anyone else, so I was doing and figuring out everything on my own. Asked for trainings, support... never got it. Asked for more collaboartion with the team, never got it... I spoke my mind about it, but I guess that was an issue... I have been applying for jobs every day since and I hardly get any interviews, or I got dragged through 4-5 rounds then to tell me they are actually not hiring anymore...

Summer intern at BCG. I've been told by a few people that you need to spend your first few cases "earning your stripes" to gain staffing optionality or be servile/loyal to a pyramid to gain access to the cooler case work within that PA. It's seemed particularly emphasized at times.

Is this the standard at McK? I'm trying to guage the staffing optionality and openness of McKinsey culture to direct your random walk.

I have worked in marketing for about 6-7 years. First few years were in social media management. My goal is to work at a big tech company.

I’ve heard mixed results about the ROI of earning an MBA. My near future goal is to move into a Marketing Director (or senior manager) role.

1) How much does Google, Amazon, Microsoft, etc. value MBAs in the hiring process?

2) Anyone currently working at the companies above with only a BBA?

Current situation: Marketing Manager, 90k, NYC.

For those who work in Agencies, how do you accurately identify the work capacity of your Account Management team? I’m currently comparing against account billable/number of accounts, however, there are still discrepancies. I layer on time tracking, but smaller billable accounts will sometimes be just as demanding as larger billable accounts which create profitability issues.
