6 months in and I already get the sense that my direct superior disdains me. Damn that was fast.

Hi guys, need some ideas.
I need early release, like 9 days before my LWD from my current company but ik my manager will take it on his ego if I tell him it's bcz I have to join another company. What should I tell him?

TIA 😊

What do you do when a manager always shuts down your approach to audit work and then when you get on a call with the partner and manager, the partner gives the same exact approach you stated earlier? This has happened to several seniors that have worked with this manager and we’re all on the verge of quitting.

I’m about to start my onboarding at google remotely. How do I build a close bond with my team and manager? Should I send an email out before my start date?

I was talking with an Asian mentee who told me that he has experienced the following microagression during job interviews: "You speak English soooo well!" Any suggestions about how he can respond?

We're all supposed to pool our tips but I'm pretty sure the waiters are keeping most of the money for themselves. I already told the manager and she kinda blew me off. Anyone else been through this?

How does your firm perceive and treat associates who hit their billable requirement but not the firm’s unofficial expectation, several months in a row?

Favorite ways to piss off a deponent you are trying to get a reaction out of? I’ll start: “Would it surprise you to learn that [insert reason why they’re wrong about a material fact that helps your case].

What’s the consensus on tattoos in the insurance workplace? I’m in leadership and considering exploring my options due to recent personnel changes. I work remote and have arm sleeves, and any time I would be in-person I’d of course wear a long sleeve shirt to be professional, but worry about a cuff rolling up and tattoos being somewhat visible. Nothing is offensive by any means.

Has anyone ever seen there being preferential treatment to the opposite sex in their workplace?

Have you experienced seniors and/or managers that compete with their staff? I think my senior generally just has a lot of dark personality traits. But I’m curious if this is common occurrence

Exited from a T2 strategy firm ~1.5 years ago. Made sure I didn't come in hot and played nice cross-functionally. I finally got opportunities to work on some high-viz / big impact initiatives. Got frustrated at how slowly a team was moving and they were becoming a huge blocker. I started doing their work for them and sharing it with them as "my initial perspective for your consideration as you form your recommendation." They still were an obstacle so I got bossy. Now that team wants to poach me

What do you do when your partner says they're going to cover drafting/filing something and then they don't do it.....? I don't want to come off as rude in emailing my partner about it, but I simply do not have any time to take care of it and they said not to worry because they were going to do it.

When partners call you to randomly spew feedback about a doc they sent you a week ago, is that intended to be a training exercise for you? Or is that just what’s easiest for them? Both?

My coworker always takes a super long breaks during the day and it's hard to get a hold of him. Should I say something??

Feeling underwater since around October, and decided to finally bring it up to my boss—now a senior associate is questioning exactly how busy I am, and seems rather interested in my workload and how it’s handled. ?s started when told to temporarily stop sending new projects my way. this sr. associate generally does not get too involved (never online), doesn’t pay too much attention, little to no feedback. No substantive projects. This reaction comes off as hostile. How to handle?

I put in a lot of effort to show my client properties that fit their requirements, but they ended up working with a different agent just because they wandered across an open house. I'm so frustrated right now. Has anyone else experienced this?

Lesson learned. Attractive females who you meet at the bar at a W hotel aren't really interested in what you do for work...

My organization absorbed another and the former deputy PM became a branch head - a demotion. For org was more focused on tech dev and not delivering a product on a sked. New org is very focused on that. He is not a driving leader, but is the only one with the tech knowledge needed. He is retirement eligible. He has no heir apparent - previous org didn’t plan that way. If I move him under someone who is a driver - he retires and I lose the knowledge. If I don’t, we may not meet schedules. Advice?

Why does everything feel like a competition with my SO? We have very similar FO banking jobs and have similar goals. Every time one of us gets paid more, promoted or recognised in any other way it feels like the other one needs to do better. I’m happy for my SO and I know their successes make me work harder but I just want to be more supportive and truly celebrate their achievements instead of thinking about how to do better. Please help!

When the IRS (e.g., a RO/AO/Examiner) calls or writes a letter… How do you verify that it’s really the IRS and not a scam? I’m new to tax law and I’m worried that I’m going to respond to/answer a scam and give away client info (or my own tax preparer info). I don’t think my worry is unfounded due to the tremendous amount of tax/IRS scam out there but it would be nice to hear from some of y’all so that I’m not so worried about it…

Any diplomatic tips to get interns/juniors to work faster?

Without having ever experienced the hectic nature of being in the office, ours seem to be working at a snail’s pace (3 billable hours to copy 4 blogs over to a different platform? With no SEO or image research? Dream on... 🐌) and considering it to be working under pressure. I’m not expecting the world from them and understand it’s a learning experience... but also want them to be working faster to be able to take more on. Unreasonable?

Has anyone here moved to a different state, applied for CPA license reciprocity in that state, and let their original CPA license expire? People at the firm keep saying let the original one lapse, but my long-term plan is to eventually move back to that state. Is it worth paying the fees for the second license out of pocket since the firm will only cover the state you work in?
