At what point would you hire a lawyer to advise on an employment contact (not negotiate on your behalf)? Anyone done this in the past?

Yes I have. If it’s big money and you are senior enough to need an executive compensation / benefits lawyer, do it. They helped advise me on the terms of an offer from a HF and let me know what types of things to ask for (severance, etc.). And obviously they’ll review the employment agreement.

Thanks. What firm did you use if you don’t mind sharing?

How do you guys decide on a CPA for tax preparation. Word of mouth is usually based on someone’s experience of one or 2 instances.

working for deloitte this summer in their gps consulting practice in the dmv. Unfortunately, due to some difficult family circumstances, I believe I’ll have to move back home to Miami after college. If I do receive a return offer, is there any chance I can ask for it to be remote/be moved to the miami office? Should I make that clear to my superiors before offers are given out or will that hamper my chances at getting an offer in the first place? Thanks for the help

Hello, All! I'm looking for recommendations on inspirational content for women leaders. I follow TEDWomen, many podcasts, and the Women's Conference among other sources. I'd love to hear a fresh perspective on business, trends, tech, marketing, equality in the workforce, etc. I'd love to learn something new. I'm at the VP level and have started a couple of companies, so nothing too junior, but open to many topics. Please share any speakers, books, webinars, or events that you may come across.
