Guys, when applying to internal positions in different departments through the internal job portal
1. Do we need to inform our current manager?
2. Is it weird if i reach out to the hiring manager informally on Skype and ask for a 10 min call to get more info on the role and his expectations before i apply?
Appreciate any insights

How bridge-burny is it to send my resignation via email? I'm remote and my new-ish manager couldn't care less about me, which is why I'm leaving. The team is changing and I think he wants me gone. I dread talking to him, and I don't feel like I owe him anything, because he's shown me zero interest and zero respect. I don't think he's the type to be petty via bad reference. My email will be perfectly polite and gracious. I just can't stomach his phony bloviating over Zoom.

Hello All,

Have a few questions regarding IBM Joining, HR response is strangely lacking and so does in the slack(prejoin channels). Hoping can be cleared here..
a) I've been told virtual onboarding is no longer a thing.
How many days does in-person onboarding activities occur?
b) HR Informed,"After onboarding is complete, can get perm WFH based on project or extension of WFH as IBM is flexible"
Is this true? Can managers extend/grant remote for a month then let us transit to remote model?

Hi hi,
I took a job where I start remote and relocate later. Now I’ve started, most of the people I work with wouldn’t even be in the same office as me so I’d be relocating to a new city just to sit at home on zoom calls 90% of the time.
I’m just wondering if there is a way to bring up a convo with leadership to adjust previous plans. I’m thinking of maybe asking if I could just spend part time in the new city and stay maybe 1-2 weeks a month here or something. Would love thoughts

PSA: if you are interviewing for a specific practice or a specialized consultancy, please do your due diligence and have a good answer to “what is your understanding of our line of work” (doesn’t need to be ground breaking, but at least read the website and put it in your own words). It’s a really stupid way of scoring negative points in the interviewer feedback.

When are you overstepping in a work environment and when are you not? What about micromanaging? How do you tell the difference?

For example, a calendar invite was created by a Product Owner but I saw that one of our designers that should be included is missing from the invite, so I tagged her on slack to see if she needs the invite forwarded or not and wanted to make sure she's included.

We're both Design Leads, no reports. I just joined 2mths ago.
