Its funny YOU should ask. I think I actually sent
MBT a resume last year while shuffling for a summer job.
To think a could have solved your morph problem just last week!
>>To think, you could have. As I said previously, none of my post was a
slam, and I'd expect the same respect from you. However, I wasn't hired to
fulfill a Flash role; I stepped into it. To assume something one way or
another would really only showcase one's naivete for such a situation.

I'm orginally from Chicago. Sometimes companies look for
talent and not just experience.
>>Again, I feel somewhat attacked here, and I will not post further to this
listing about it; we can take it privately beyond this. I'd hazard to guess
that a lot of companies look for a healthy blend of talent, experience
and/or personality. I know that we do, and we work very hard to ensure that
our staff is comprised of people who actively take on more than their
"defined" roles--regardless of experience. I don't know of you or of your
submitted resume; I'm certain that I was hired after the fact of your
submission, and it really doesn't affect me, but, and I could be wrong and
apologize whole-heartedly if I have mis-taken your post, but, it is somewhat
unfair to assume one reason or another about the way a company operates by
one experience (or lack thereof). One would be better suited, I would
think, to ask questions, instead.

Bringing the development in-house
allows for closer relations with the marketing department
and a much better feel for the company your trying to brand.
While Pepsiworld will still remain Needham's account, this one man
team will do just what you said, reduce spending on a medium PepsiCo is
unsure just exactly how to use.
>>This makes perfect sense to me and I can defintely see WHY it's being
done. It shows to me that the predictions of bringing certain types of work
(DTP, GA, Web, etc.) in-house are starting to become a reality, and that is
great for a lot of us "in the industry". This is certain to allow "us" to
have more value and marketability in the future. Kudos Pepsi.

I will launch these sites by tweaking the
graphics done by Pepsi's Graphics Department...maintaining them
is another issue. I'll be showcasing my work as time passes on.
>>I will be anxious to view the work. Pepsi's no slouch, and I wouldn't
assume you to be either to have landed there.
