Restaurants, bars in Cleveland? Thanks! Staying at the Ritz if that helps.

Need to plan a team building for sr management team. CEO VPs Directors. About 15 ppl total. What is the best team building you have done? Looking for inspiration and idea. Mix of ages and M/F. About 75% of these people get along well and work well together. Trying to foster some better relationships and have some fun. We are planning to do this during work hours vs “force” people to miss family/ personal time to attend.

I don’t care about the hours, the work, the pay, etc. What really made me feel like I fell for something in recruitment is “we are a family”. No. It’s so cliquey, nobody hangs out after work...

Shout out to other first generation college grads doing their thing despite the odds and obstacles against us!

Looking for advice from PR & Marketing leaders, how do you convince senior leadership that PR matters even though efforts don’t always lead to direct sales? We are a small DTC company with a complex product offering. We hired a PR agency about 1.5yrs ago when a big competitor popped up in our industry. I still get questions from number-focused execs about how a feature in The NY Times helps us even though we may not see direct membership/sales spikes within 24hrs.

I have a little under 8yrs of experience - working for a small tech consulting firm, one person team, slowly becoming global (HRBP, HR generalist, and recruiting) I make $80k a year based in Chicago. I feel like I am under paid, but would love some opinions on what others think.

Does anyone know of any business oriented, but novel/fictional books with interesting characters? Not looking for self-help, more of actual literature with business themes/plots.

How much paid FTO/PTO does your firm give at the manager level? Mainly interested in the top 6 firms. I know EY and GT have unlimited.

Hi everyone,

I hope you are well.

I live in London, UK.

I am looking to change career and move into Data Science.

I achieved several Microsoft certifications including the "Data Analyst Associate".

I have also started a online BSc with LSE in Data Science and Business Analytics, this year.

I would love to work with data full-time, however, I am struggling to get a job offer.
I delivered a few data projects within my current role.

Thank you in advance. I look forward to hearing from you

Does anyone here have trouble getting out of bed in the morning? I feel like I can’t motivate myself to wake up and then get out of bed every single day. Once I’m out of bed and working, I can get motivated and work through the day. I tend to have very productive 3 PM - 12 AM. I just wish that I could get myself to pull that back six hours.

I had an early miscarriage (week 4.5) after a FET with a PGT embryo (medicated cycle).

My doctor wants to move right away to a test cycle (w/ the objective of doing a biopsy and various tests), to be followed by doing the second FET cycle.

Is this too soon? Should I wait a month for my HCG levels to be normal again and to give my body some rest?
