Why are Amazon ads always so bad? Out of touch, out of focus, etc. I notice this across markets and mediums. I’ve worked on them before for a TVC and I was absolutely in awe at how many cycles they have before accepting some of the worst options possible.

Is anyone’s company offering to pay portion of your rent as home office expense? Especially if company is no longer paying for commercial office space?

I don’t care what you got going on. Wearing a back pack with a suit is not the move.

Hi All! What pre boarding processes do you find most effective in your place of work to keep a new hire an engaged employee?

What’s the best way of selling work to your boss if he’s just not current on new stuff? I keep getting handed references from some directors from 10 years ago and I want to say “hey, what about something from this year, not last century”

Hello fellow EAs! Anyone here work or has worked for autodesk in the Bay Area?

Hi all! I’m new! I started the year off planning to save for a home for myself, then rates skyrocketed. So we’re holding off. Fast forward to the final quarter of the year and we were presented with the idea of a residential assisted living facility. The problem there is we’d still need to acquire property in order to run one. The only difference is the RAL would be a business and is already registered as such. Does anyone have any experience here?

I didn't choose the tax life...the tax life chose me. 9/15 Let's go!!!

Hey, Guys!

Do we have to take a print out, physically sign and then upload the scanned document of the offer letter or is it enough to accept the offer letter through the SAP portal only?

Kayakers, what are you driving? I have to upgrade our sedan and already have a pilot but was thinking of something to help transport a couple hard shells around compared to the inflatables we use now. Bonus if the car has great tech. Thanks!

Anybody have success requesting to go from 100% on one account to 50/50 or at least floating around a bit more? Any tips welcome 🙏

It took the horrific and completely inexcusable death of George Floyd to move the racism issue to the forefront. And while it’s a crime of a much lesser degree, with different circumstances, what’s it going to take to get ageism properly addressed? Intelligent thoughts/debate requested only please.

My Old Art Partner : just landed in LA for a week long shoot. Me: I'm waiting for boards to take to a meeting to NJ at 7:00 AM.

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

Has anyone received a job offer after being initially ghosted by recruiter? How long did you not hear from them? Feeling down after not hearing anything for 2 weeks after a round of seemingly promising interviews.

Which portable standing desk converters do people have and recommend. I live in a tiny NYC apartment so use my dining table as the office during the day but need to put it away at night.

So I was laid off. Is it okay to talk about it at my next job interview? Feels like everyone knows anyway.

I've received an offer from another agency and my manager says he needs to see it before a counter offer. He says it's GroupM policy. Is that true? Thank you!
