And there are definitely not long hours there. It's as close to a 9 to 5 as you can get in this biz. Of course, if you want this, there are sacrifices to be made, like living in Dallas and signing in by 8:30. They don't hate women there either. They just hate untalented creatives, who just all happen to be women. The people there are nice. And there are definitely not long hours there. It’s as close to a 9 to 5 as you can get in this biz.

Remember. The Firm promotes having babies. The Firm watches out for the Firm. "Sign in please and if you "forget" we can always pull the garage gate report" The Firm will provide a down on a house and as long as you don't try to leave the Firm within 5 years you can keep it. The Firm has a condo in Deer Valley and Mustang Island. The Firm would like you to climb aboard the Firm's jet and enjoy spending Grant's inheritance. (As long as you are not female of course.) Now, how can I bill this time so that the Firm's P&L looks great before the next stair well meeting. Its the Firm.

If Stan sees you’ve been “late” a few times, look out." This is weird. I personally don't think it should matter when people come in and leave, so long as they get their shit done and it's awesome. But i work every day from 8:30am to 7:30 pm like clockwork, so what do i know. “You have to sign in and out and they change the color of the pen after a certain time.

I know nothing of this place except that a few juniors I know left after a while when the whole home depot thing went down. they didn't say anything too bad, so hearing this is quite novel and interesting to me. damn, there are some tough commenters in this thread.

He was specifically proud of the work on Hyundai. Was quite the chatty catty on how 'GOOD' he felt the creative was. But quiet as a mouse when asked about results for Hyundai. Richards himself has talked about art for art's sake. One of the principals came to our graduate marketing class to show off their reel. He was specifically proud of the work on Hyundai.
