Has anyone had experience in both the nonprofit and corporate sectors? Most of my experience in college was with nonprofits but I’m currently working in corporate retail. There are a lot of things I miss about the nonprofit sector and I am considering about making the move back but want to weigh my pros and cons. I am one year out of grad school so any knowledge regarding how to navigate the workforce as a newbie is welcomed. Thank you!

Advice for getting over feelings of jealousy? Also related for me, how can I learn to be indifferent to people I don’t like… rather than actively dislike them? I feel jealous feelings only when it’s someone I don’t like. I want to get over both feelings… learn to be truly indifferent to others. I try to tell myself I shouldn’t care, but so far I am yet to feel it. On the inside I do know it bothers me.

Hi all,

I am a freelance strategist (mid-level), and I am looking for projects that I can support.
I can work remotely, and I appreciate any leads.
Thanks!

Have 2 offers on the board that I am trying to decide between currently and would appreciate some opinions.

Spotify:
REMOTE
160k base, 85k equity/vested over 4 years
No year end bonus, no signing bonus
TC ~180k

StubHub:
NEW YORK
125k base, 500k equity/vested over 4 years
20k signing bonus, 10% year end bonus
TC ~270k

I am heavily leaning towards Spotify right now due to it being remote and because StubHub is not public so worried about the rsus decreasing in value. Thoughts?
