We are working on trying to convince firm management to update their very outdated meal reimbursement policy. Do others mind sharing what theirs are? Interested in maximum amount, whether there is a billable hours requirement, whether meals have to be delivered to the office, and whether any changes during pandemic. Thanks! If you don’t mind supplying law firm, would appreciate it.

It’s been over a decade of waiting for Avatar 2 and it’s finally coming, will it live up to the hype or will it flop? Make your predictions people

The Mazda spots. So bad. So cringe. I feel like they ripped the copy from those old “motivational” posters. I hope HOPE the client wrote these.

Slalom & West Monroe in Chicago -- thoughts on how those compare with Big 4 in terms of comp, culture, benefits, upword mobility, types of projects?

Thoughts on asking for a new manager?

So my current CD kinda doesn't give any direction. They look at what I've done and change like one word. Maybe I'm an acd and I don't need much oversight? They also ask me to help lighten their load but never know what needs to be done and tell me to ask the account or design team. I just don't think they are super interested in working any more. 1 junior and a mid level already asked to leave this team. I don't wanna cause trouble or get them (or me) fired

Currently looking for a reliable, experienced social media manager (Instagram & Tiktok). Does anyone know where to find reliable people in this department?

My firm recently updated the Intapp Time app and it seems to be capturing my time more aggressively than the previous version. E.g., Composed email to X, edited doc Y, viewed email from recruiter Z? Yo!! How do I shut the damn thing off? Stuff is creepy to me. No doubt Big brother's watching.

For nurse cases manager positions:
Sedgwick or Enlyte?? Any feedback would be much appreciated.

So someone I know asked HR about a boot policy. When he found out that there wasn’t one, but his boss said there was (who gave the guys $ for boots and the claimed it on his expense reimbursements as something else) the boss got mad at him for askingHR (and in trouble for the expense reimbursements) and then 2 days later laid off my friend. There appears to be no notice of bad performance and this person always was the first person on the job site ready to work. Thoughts?

Hey Googlers! It’s been a lifelong dream of mine to work at Google. I have 8+ consulting / product management experience, any googlers out there that can help out with a referral?
