What is the deal with online lenders for mortgage? Has anyone used them or know why they are substantially cheaper rates? What’s the downside?

I’m asking to get my notice period waived. I have a 30 day notice period per the employment agreement I signed, but it says they can waive it at any time after I gave notice. Im not going to a competitor or even the same industry. How likely is for my current firm to allow this?

I just joined a non-dream company as a 10+ years experience guy. My friend working in my dream company forwarded a job requirement from his internal postings. I want to give it a try but in case I get selected how hard or bad would it be to quit current company? I want to know what consequences I should be ready to face. Can someone please advice?

Hey guys
I am desperately looking to buy an 3bhk apartment in Bangalore for last 3+ years now. Anyone bought flat recently and are you liking the quality and atmosphere surrounding? Please refer. Our highest preferences are:
1. children & elderly friendly,
2. close to ORR (office commutable distance is the key thing for this. We both are working in Hebbal and Banaswadi)
3. Spacious apartment
Please suggest if you know a good apt.

I don’t have any experience with Keto Diet. However, I have heard so many good things about it. Anyone want to do an intro to what it is, tips, needed products to start, etc?

Is it true that Chartis usually pays out bonuses in full or is that just recruiter talk?

Graduated college 6 months ago and just been working since. I’ve been living in my city for almost 20 years now and want a different change of scenery. Any advice from people who moved west coast to East coast. I’ve been interested working in Chicago or New York

Why do people in this industry say "like" so much? It makes it annoying to, like, walk around the building and listen

Wendys twitter interactions are pure gold.

Conflicted on whether to stock up due to coronavirus or not. Part of me thinks it’s smart in case of a run on the stores or quarantine, but I’ve checked in with friends who live in Italy (cont)

Hey guys! Working on an interesting personal project and would like to know who you guys would suggest as having the freshest haircut in the ad game! Their names, portfolio and agency would be great.

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❤️

Kudos to the man on the train next to me who has his ticket around his neck, his glasses in his hand and a full sleeping mask on. 😴

I got recruited for a analytical role with Ford, it’s a contract to hire position with great benefits, double my salary currently and close to home. The contract is for 6 months then can be hired in full time. Should I take the position or no? What do I have to lose?

I wish glass door would tell you gender. Would love to see how much more men creatives still get paid more than women.

Confession: Sometimes I give money to homeless people that look like they might be an undercover billionaire looking for a kind soul to leave their fortune to. Does that make me a bad person?

Why do some art directors only really start looking at stuff at the 11th hour? Thus forcing people to stay late on the Friday of a 3 day weekend.

Do brand design / strategy shops have better w/l balance than advertising?

Coming on a year of WFH and Friday doesn’t even feel like a Friday. What are days?

If you win an award for a category you don’t want to be known for (ex. Tobacco, B2B, or pharma), do you still mention it in your resume or book?

John Patroulis is about to start running shit at Grey. Better that Tor?

Which do you prefer?

“Give me a deadline and I’ll get the work done”
or

“when I get this done I’ll let you know and we can figure out when the client will see it.”

So if the supporting rules(PM, BA, Digital producer. Etc) within an ad agency gets paid more than the creatives who are making the work, what does it mean for being a young creative?

Dogs in offices are cool, but who's offering some comfy siesta benefits? 😴💤

Project Managers. Are any of your companies hiring a junior PM? I've been looking and not having a ton of luck.

casually scrolling through my feed on IG when I see a sponsored ad from a guy wanting to work at Saatchi. Jobseekers are getting so clever! what's the best thing you've seen someone do for a job?
