Remote jobs

how many of you will consider working from home more often when business settles into a new normal? will you also change your point of view when it comes to how often employees work from home?

Now that employees are going to WFH for a long time, what are your firms doing to help setup home office. Can you buy chair, desk, monitor or anything ergonomic to help employees

My team is trying to find a better way to track talent. We have an ATS we like for everything but tracking the talent pipeline. Anyone have good one off tools they use for talent pipeline tracking? Even better if it integrates with Microsoft Teams.

Maybe it’s burnout from a job where all the cool work benefits you could brag to your friends about are gone bc you wfh now and don’t have access to your cool office and now you work around the clock because there’s no separation between home and work and your agency has done next to nothing to help with that balance and you’ve billed more hours per week than you ever had and now your friends and family are starting to comment on your workload, health, and demeanor. Maybe it’s Maybelline ✨

I am SO tired of hearing “you’re on mute”. How have people not figured out how to effectively use zoom/teams/etc yet. 🤦‍♀️😭

Do you think your agency is gonna push up your return to office date (if you’re still wfh) because of the recent CDC guidance 🤔

ISO recommended brands for work out gear. Running, long walks. Functional but also cute for those random zoom calls. For various reasons I’ve clung to gear for WAY too long, and am desperate. Posting in this bowl...cuz well...covid made me very aware how past due this purchase is.

If I remove someone from a channel on slack, will they be notified of who removed them, or only that they've been removed?

Hi, I have got offer from PWC India, Mumbai location. What are the chances that I will be deployed to a domestic client location project? And also if it's a critical data project like of banking what are the chances that they will ask for work from office at client location even if it's WFH these days? YOE: 5.5 years Technology: ETL development

At my 1st industry job. Another analyst starting the same time as I is annoying the heck out of me. He never shares information, and always just repeats what I said in group messages, emails, zoom meetings (and prompts me to go first). He even stalks my calendar and compares the schedule overlap with our manager’s to figure out my meetings and schedule🙃. He also pushed me under the bus (he didn’t do a task even though i reminded him, yet he said I didn’t do it either together). Just here to vent

Women associates in BigLaw first years through third years: what would you most like to learn from a seasoned woman lawyer: 1. How to be confident in meetings and speak up appropriately in them every single time, 2. How to effectively run a meeting, 3. How to conquer fear of failing and learn to have your own back, or 4. Something else. If I ran a free zoom call for an hour for the first 4 people who were interested, would that help you?

How can you guys be effecient and accurate using only one screen? Without a second monitor I'm shit....

No surprise - this has been a tough year for most. Often people joke about the “difficult and uncertain times.” But recent events have made this phrase not a joke. Idk if it’s appropriate to just drop extremely sad news on your coworkers (especially WFH) but I️ also want them to understand I’m not TRYING to be distracted from work. I WISH it was all made up & not true, but I’ve lost 5 friends/family members since this June. Four of whom tragically lost their lives before turning 25 years old

Like most of the agencies, we were operating in a high touch environment with our clients to grow business. And in 2020 everyone understood the need to operate remotely and focused on getting the work done. However a lot of sales/opportunities for growth were discovered in informal coffee/lunch sessions with clients. I wonder how are all of you engaging with clients in a remote set up. Would love to hear everyone’s experiences..

I seriously wish people love black people as much as they do black culture.

What are the benefits of working at a small law firm (about 10 attorneys) as opposed to a midsize firm. What is the difference in the amount of work/ billable hours, benefits (health insurance and PTO), opening doors for future career opportunities, etc. I have an interview at a small law firm, which is not what I ideally wanted, but I am considering it because of the COVID uncertainties. I appreciate any kind of guidance.

We’re finally going engagement ring shopping tomorrow!! I love the look of diamonds but I just can’t justify the expense at this point in our lives. Any suggestions on alternative stones?

S1 audit comp in Atlanta?

Advice needed-I’m 30 weeks pregnant and constantly getting dumped on at work (in industry now). I’m high risk (gestational diabetes & hypertension) and have been clear with my all male management team that I’m high risk. Still, they are steady trying to pull me into new projects while I’m actively leading one of the most high profile projects in the org. From a career standpoint, I appreciate it, but I cannot physically keep up the way I used to and feel like I’m risking my and my baby’s health.
