L'oreal. They were superficial, egotistical maniacs who belittled and abused the agency team. They openly talked about people's appearance, screamed and cursed at people, questioned individuals value that they brought to the business and insulted them in front of senior leadership. Worst part is they knew they could get away with it because the leadership team would do anything to keep the brand name on the roster.

Second L'Oreal people are whaccckkk. Globally. From US to Paris to Australia to China.

United Airlines. Also a couple small brands that thought hiring an agency meant they had unlimited resources. L’Oréal is hit or miss in my opinion. Some of the clients are really awesome, some behave like bratty teens.

Hey y’all - seeking guidance please to pivot from Web 2.0 to Web3. 8 YOE in startups, agencies and big tech in client services, programme management and partnerships. I am proactively doing reach outs and self-directed learning to build my knowledge base. However, all Web3 companies seem to want prior crypto and blockchain experience and personally, as a female, I’ve found this space a bit “bro-ish” and daunting to enter, especially when not an engineer. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Hello all, need some advice. Am currently working for a government consulting agency, but wishing to leave due to the way the project is being managed...I am in at least 4-5 hours of meetings a day, so barely have time to prepare for demos, preparation of slides for the client, nevermind being able to write decent stories(tickets)... Usually have to rush writing requirements, steps, etc, ...
So I have been looking around.
