I'm working on skills to reposition myself from a branch of tech where certifications are mandatory and required to even interview into DevOps or software development. I'm currently taking some online classes in Jenkins, docker, python. I've found a few certifications you can test for. I'd love to be able to go into a mid level position vs Jr in the next few years. A) Are these types of certs helpful or useless? B) what skills differentiate Jr and mid level positions?

Hey, any corporate lawyer / in-house counsel / corporate counsel from India in this bowl? What do you think about the biggest challenge of moving from a law firm role to in-house role or vise versa?

Does anyone feel that the Oil and Gas industry is the most discriminatory industry of all? They won’t even look at resume without O&G experience! It does not make sense to me as I would rather teach someone the specifics of an industry if they were a good fit. And for an industry that has so many obstacles from Government, Environmental Organizations and so on, why they are adding more bad publicity to themselves is not a great approach.

Thinking about making a switch from supply chain to marketing, any suggestions for tools/software that i should learn?

Hi all! I need some candid advice from y'all. How do I get my manager to see my value and see that I'm actually doing a lot of work? For some reason all the other departments & teams I work with always say how grateful they are that I've joined the company because I've really been cleaning things up & making their lives way easier. But for some reason in my manager's eyes all I do is "meets expectations". I already am doing senior level work as the only senior on our team left a month in... (1)

Hi Fishes,
What should be the salary for Manager / Sr Manager having 14+ yoe in project/product service operations? I am at 32 lpa which I think is quite low having worked with top consulting firms for close to 12 years.

What's the closest non US place to go to for vacation other than Canada

I have an interview for an in house position (only attorney) at a small non-profit focused on conservation easements. I am a transactional associate at a mid sized law firm. The prospect of freedom from the billable hour and contributing to meaningful work are the draws. The cons are that while the salary at the non-profit would only be slightly less than what I am making now, pay increases and opportunities for advancement will be much less than where I am now. Thoughts on making the shift?

P&T moving to cohort. Thoughts …

How do promotions work in P&T? I see some teams still require an open position that you have to apply for but others do the in place promotions. How do in place promotions work?

according to the all-hands webcast yesterday, I thought I overheard someone say that raises will be significant this year? I know we’ll find out at the end of the month but does anyone have anymore details?

Why does the P&T org view Suneet as a Pope-like figure?

Clearly he has ascended and is respected, but it’s comments like this — ‘Wow! You got to meet with Suneet?!?,’ that make me wonder. 🤔

What’s the (back)story? What am I missing?

Also the continual request(s) for self-validation is something I have never seen of someone at his level — and I’ve been around (and coached) a lot of executives.

Hows was everyone’s experience at the CoLo?

Microsoft Suite is absolute trash but at least my email and calendar look pretty

GTM pillar is moving out of P&T and into core consulting. Closer to the action. Very smart.

How do progression look like? Do we have lateral moves (SA1A, SA1B)

ONE p&t partner? yikes.

Any info on when the discussions for mid-year promotion are happening? I understand that ppl will get to know between November 11-15.

Fellow P&T Directors - here’s a thread for us to discuss what we are hearing/not hearing with regards to PCLDE and the making of new partners in P&T.

On every call, we hear Joe talk about making new Partners and his commitment. I have yet to see any of those ‘commitments’ be reflected in actions or explanations. (eg. No senior directors from commercial GTM going into PCLDE this year …) What?

Do they really think we’re going to ‘stick around’ until they ‘figure it out’ …

I have to admit that I wasn't terribly impressed by the virtual Co-Lo for Digital. The exception to that, though, was David's insightful comment that leadership knows and expects that many of us are struggling to come back from the pandemic, and it's okay to ask for help and or take a leave. Digital culture, and how we are real and take care of each other, is just AMAZING. That speech alone made me so proud to be here and turned around a lot of my negative thoughts.

Thinking of moving from Cyber to P&T, anyone done this?

Since GTM was moved out of P&T and into Consulting, does that mean our salaries/bonuses won't have the 25% cap that everyone's talking about?

Could we get reimburse for taking the ITIL exam ?

Is P&T really just trying to replace local dev teams with AC/ offshore teams??

How has P&T been affected by recessions in the past ? Are internal app teams more safe ? Also how is the severance package calculated.
