What training or guidance are you giving managers at your firms about managing hybrid teams? There is a lot out there on remote teams, but a lot of us are going back three days a week which means people at home and people in the room. Any tips to pass on?

I already have the SHRM-SCP. . would it be a value add to go for the SPHR as well?

I’ve been at my current company for 6 months and my direct manager is exiting the company. I’d like to ask if I’d be considered for the position but am not sure how to go about it? Is it worth it when I’ve been with the company such a short time? I come with expertise and background for the role but haven’t built the rapport at this company. How do I facilitate the conversation without seeming selfish?

Would my bosses let me move to work in a different state? I work as an internal consultant within KPMG, working for the firm within the internal HR team. I have been with KPMG for 5 months but I am wanting to move back home to be with my family - on the other side of the country. There’s only a 2 hour Timezone difference and I’d make sure to work on current time. My line manager I report to lives in another state to me anyway - and it seems to work well for her. Am I pushing my luck to ask?

Hi everyone! Looking for some guidance on resources you use for benchmarking for workforce planning/DEI specifically in the tech space?

I am looking to gain certification or other credentialing in diversity and inclusion, not only because it would look good on my resume both for future job-search purposes and also to become better educated in this area, which is growing in importance. I looked at SHRM's "Inclusive Workplace Culture Specialty Credential" and got a bit of "sticker shock" at the cost - $1,655.00 for members. Does anyone have other suggestions on training/credentialing in this area?

Can anyone recommend a certificate or course that is actually useful for developing professionals and/or reviewing performance? I don’t want/need something that is just a credential, I’m actually looking to get some formal grounding in these two topics so I can overhaul processes at my consulting firm. Thanks for your advice!!!

CA Law question. What are you doing with arbitration agreements? Interested to hear from everyone, and from securities industry too! We didn’t hire since January, but want to start next year, and the whole AB 51 thing is confusing.

I’ve seen that if you switch big 4 firms, they make you leave that day. Is this still true during Covid? Would they just lock you out if your computer that day?

If the system benefits you, then what is the incentive to change the system (privilege, wealth, etc)? Why not keep things the way they are?

Has anyone seen follow up studies demonstrably proving causation between vaccines and covid rate/ severity reduction? This is not political at all and I don’t care about your stance on vaccines, just genuinely curious because I haven’t been able to find it and would expect that there would be more/ better data at this point with all the natural experiments going on.

Why do D layoffs target newer people? I know of several people with great reviews + high utilization but less than 1 year tenure and were let go. Whereas some with several years of tenure but mediocre/good ratings still have a job.

Apparently, bunch of folks fired from big 4 this year. Is this rumor true?

I have an old chase freedom card which I guess doesn’t exist anymore. Should I change to the freedom flex? Currently put travel/dining on CSR, use Freedom for the quarterly 5% categories, and put flights and everything else on Amex. I don’t think it makes a difference if I’m only using it for the 5% right?

Does anyone have a general idea of approximate salaries for experienced tax managers in the Big 4? Chicago specifically.

MD comp - what is it?

I understand that the way to figure out whether you’re paid appropriately is to take your number of billable hours multiplied by your hourly rate and divided by three. Going into my annual review, I’m it even sure if I’ll be offered a raise, but if I am, should I apply that formula to my new hourly rate (if it’s increased) or my current one?

Thoughts on FCB Chicago? What’s the culture like? Coworkers? Leadership? Would you want to work there yourself? Why/why not? Thanks 🐠!

Doing my first exploratory call with another Big 4 recruiter soon. What should I ask them?

I used to dread PDs at our school, but this year we do open-door style where teachers sign up to lead a workshop on something they've created or initiated in their classroom, like trying a new activity or app, and teachers pick which workshop is most interesting or applicable for them. I love having choice!
