I’m the only woman on an all men team. This is my very first corporate job out of college. Have limited office experience. My team is super nice, but I think I’m too careful- keep my distance a bit too much. I feel like I need to befriend them and develop a more friendly relationship. I want to be professional though. I also really need to get closer to the partner bc of my visa issue and I think partners are the key people to vouch for you. But I don’t want it to seem weird..

I had my H1-B visa interview where the officer approved my visa and told me to expect stamped passport back in 2 business days. It’s been over 5 business days now and I haven’t heard back.

Any pointers on what I can do to get an update on passport?

Any insights appreciated. #supplychain #cpsm #cpsd #cscp #education #certifications

So my husband recently became a share partner at a firm, which is a bit stressful for us because (i) it’s a big transition and a lot of stress for him and (ii) they are pressuring him to move to NYC (we are based in TX where most of my family live). Anyways, we are planning to have kids, and I’m worried that if we move and have a child that I will alone, also working in biglaw and raising the child alone without help. Anyways, I was wondering other women’s thoughts, experiences and advice.

Recently interviewed someone in a group setting on zoom for a much higher position than any of us on the call. The candidate was lovely, but my colleagues (all women) were on their phones the whole time and were more concerned with selling themselves than determining if the candidate was the right fit. They definitely didn’t portray our team or the company in a nice light. Do I bring it up to my boss? Do I sit back and see if that candidate decides not to pursue us further?

Is there a time when people generally “start” work remotely? Back when I was a summer before the pandemic, I commonly saw people go in between 9-10 am but I didn’t know what the norm is now that we are remote. I see emails at 8 am and I’m not sure if I’m expected to respond then or not. Also if you are on a deal where some of the members are in NY and you’re in the Midwest, are you expected to go by their times and be on when they are on?
