Crying for my RSUs….started at my company about 6 months ago and got some RSUs split over 3 years. Turns out the stock price at time of my hiring (which is what was used to calculate the number of shares over the three years) was the highest it’s ever been. Stock price has been cut in half since then, along with my RSU value. 😭 how do I cope?

I’m a Business Operations Consultant at Accenture Federal Services. I’d love to break into FAANG one day, but I’m worried I’ll be pigeon-holed to operations work which seems to be the lowest paid work/least interesting/least technical.

Does it matter when I ask for a raise? My company process is that my manager completes a performance review, then I review what he wrote and after I sign off on it, that’s when raises happen. Last year, they gave a 1% raise and didn’t even tell me about it, so I’m wondering, should I wait and see what they give this year and then negotiate or ask for it before I sign off on my review?

Hello!
Who wants to describe shortly their experience as start up owner? I'm very interested to read your story!

I have a business idea in the VR/AR space utilizing AI. However, I lack skill sets to evaluate viability or to create an MVP. Neither do I have a network to tap into.

My plan is taking classes to deepen my knowledge while joining and actively participating in communities to find collaborators.

Does this approach make sense or do you recommend other approaches? If it makes sense, do you have any recommendations for classes or communities?

Look forward to hearing your experiences and wisdom!

We spoke to 200+ talents at Big tech (FAANMGS) and we were shocked about what we learned. Contrary to what people think; the product engineering folks are not that busy. They basically work about 20hrs a week. Meanwhile, the early-stage fast-growing Startups we are speaking with are desperate to work with Silicon Valley FAANG experts to help them build better, and launch faster.

Are there founders out here who are looking to talk to us?

Hey all fellow startups - we’re a small firm and we just had one of our employees poached by a larger firm (Ubisoft) who of course we can’t compete with at this stage. We’re already taking steps to find a replacement but was looking for tips to keep boosted when this occurs. We were told the classic “it’s not us it’s me” statement (and we don’t hold any blame or animosity - relations are good atm, and the pay is fair, but it’s Ubisoft ) but we’re trying to find a way to retain talent.

Side hustle or startup ideas for someone who isn’t technical/doesn’t code? Where should I look or where to begin? I don’t have any strong passions or specific skills that I’m confident in.
