Anyone come across designers that are not worth the price? I find this to be very common with medium-tier designer brands and then the top of the top designers make specialty pieces that cannot even be weighed due to the artistry. Essentially, some items are far too much for what they are, and while I don't mind what I spend if it's truly magnificent, I do mind when it's falling apart after a few wears.

How would you describe the culture at IBM?

NY, DC, and CO bar exams for CA licensed attorney. What’s the best way to study for these? Buy used 2019 materials, or pay Barbri a fortune for their services?

What’s the realistic salary expectations post-pandemic for an experiential producer with 5+ years of experience and 8+ years of managerial experience (in multiple fields)??

Curious how other companies are position their 2023 December holiday calendar.

Soon to be graduating from an MBA, and won't be able to attend a graduation ceremony or grad party - is it something life changing that I'll be missing out on?

What are everyone's thoughts on executive MBA vs. traditional MBA? I'm currently pursuing a traditional MBA but sometimes I wonder what could've been 😅

Anyone working in Pune?@Stefanini

Ready to leave my current org to continue the process of learning and growth. Which companies actually have Account Executives hitting quota consistently, have a great product market fit, and have a positive culture geared towards career growth?

Bouncing ideas here my Chiro mentioned that he is having trouble with his AR over 300K sitting in 120 from PPO plans. He was thinking of hiring someone that will charge him 11% to manage and collect his AR
I was thinking of offering to be a consultant, clean up his AR and make changes to current practice for future collections.
I have never done this but it’s genuinely exciting. How much would you change and how? And is this an enticing idea instead of outsourcing billing and paying a fee forev

Hi fishes,

Needed suggestions from you guys. Currently I am working in TCS,having 1.2 years of experience with CTC 7.5 lpa. I am confused if I need to do M.tech or MBA or just do company switch after some time periods. Which will be more efficient in salary perspective?

Hello fishes
I want to come to Amdocs from EPAM with few months of experience, currently SDE2. I do have some questions, though.
1. How does EPAM compare to Amdocs? Regarding the job satisfaction, projects, Permanent WFH, etc.
2. This company is, in my opinion, one of the best for growth and high-quality projects. Can someone vouch to this?
3. I would appreciate it if you could recommend SDE2, SDE3, or both.
4. What should a reasonable CTC expectation be?
I am eager for your help and support. 🥰

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury. I ask because, as noted in the previous thread re: Chanel’s price increases, the quality of authentic luxury bags is going way down while the price increases consistently. Specifically Chanel and LV. I’m fascinated in the online rep community and it looks like rep quality has increased exponentially (with genuine materials and 1:1 markings, stitching, hardware, etc). What’s your argument for or against replicas?

Any recs on women’s luxury brand sneakers?

Anyone have the newer, smaller Cartier JUC? If so, is it a practical don’t take off/wear it everyday bracelet? Would it work to stack with the Love (if you have it)? Thank you in advice for any advice. :)

Might be a long shot, is anyone selling a phoebe philo Celine large trio bag? Preferably in neutral color (not black) thanks!

I know this is kind of low budge for some of the bags that have been posted lately, but I’m about to pull the trigger on the Saint Laurent Quilted Vintage Leather Camera bag in cream. Just a small everyday crossbody. Any thoughts?? Would love to hear feedback. Would love something bigger than this to throw more stuff in, but am really attracted to the design.

Does anyone own a balmain blazer? How is the sizing? (Any measurement references would be helpful)

Has anyone been able to get the LVxNike sneakers today?

Need the 101 on how to work with SAs at luxury boutiques as a first-time buyer. Do you “shop around” until you find one you like? If something isn’t in stock, do they text you proactively? Would love to hear how you all developed relationships.

Does anybody else see no point in splurging on luxury goods at the moment? Don’t get me wrong, I still love a bit of Cartier and Dior, but what’s the point when we can’t really go anywhere?

Does anyone have the neverfull EPI for work? Considering this or the goyard totes but those seem to have pretty bad reviews. Would appreciate any thoughts. Is it worth it?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a stylist in NYC. I would like to group my clothes into outfits for specific seasons so I only have one season in my closet at a time. Assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I’m looking for a diamond tennis bracelet for my wedding. Any recommendations on where I can find one? I checked out Costco and Blue Nile and they were just ok.

Hi! I’m new to consulting & new to luxury fashion.
Would some of you share your favorite places for inspiration and ideas on new and vintage style?
And feel free to sprinkle in some favorite places you shop, entry level pieces for women, or advice in general!

Which are more worth it and why? Christian Dior slingbacks, jimmy choo mules or Manolo blahnik satin pumps?

Backpack suggestions that can be used for office/travel?
Something to keep my electronics, wallet and maybe 1-2 books in

Does anyone own an LV Capucines? My heart has been set on that for a while now but I see it’s prices keep going up, up, up! The one thing I love about the bag is the structured look and no over the top logo print. Does anyone have it and if yes, is it worth the investment? Also are there other LV bags that do not have the visible LV prints?

If you have a love bracelet, do you wear it to work?

Kind of seeking validation here but also happy to take feedback. Is 22 too young for luxury goods? I’m obsessed with handbags. Like literally. I own 2 LV, 1 Chanel, 1 YSL, 1 Gucci, and just bought another Gucci. Idk what’s wrong with me🧐but I’ve been feeling super antsy and dissatisfied with life that I seek thirst in binge shopping, or even spending hours looking at handbags. Fyi I’m really not spoiled, most of the bags are hard earned and I consider myself to be ambitious

What do you think of the Saint Laurent baby uptown bag in white with gold hardware?
