Besides Presidents’ Day holiday, we should be getting time off for Valentine’s Day as well. 🤣 Wouldn’t that be nice if companies offer this extra day off?

Any next week joiners?

If yes, please comment your DOJ as Monday(OCT 24th) is a public holiday.

@EY

What consulting firms have the best WLB? How many hours per week do you work? Are weekends safe? Is vacation safe?

Anyone here going to the EY holiday party this Thursday alone? I am 😅 and i think i’d be fun to meet other gals and keep each other company!

Voting day should be a national holiday.

We're discussing the company holiday plan and it looks like my manager is going to pressure me to work on Thanksgiving this year. Late-stage capitalist america, now without holidays!

About to take an offer at EY. Want a baby soon and saw the great news about increased parental leave. Question is, can u use vacation time consecutively with it? Right now most on leave take 5 months

Hello folks,

I am new to fishbowl and recently got an offer from Publicis Sapient for a senior associate. They are offering $136k with unlimited pto benefits. As I am from the industry and haven't heard about this company before, I would like some comments or thoughts about working for this company? How do they invest in their employees (like pay raise, promotions, etc)?

What is your favorite holiday tradition/event to attend in San Diego?

We are seeing more pushback from employees on working 40 hours. We offer flexibility (wfh), 11 holidays and another 3 wks PTO. Seems like a good gig, I think, at 40-45 hrs. Anyone seeing this too?

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

Christmas falls on a Monday next year. Is your company observing the Friday before (22nd) as eve? Or are they observing the 26th as day after?

In 2023 I'm wanting to help make my management more effective. So, I'm looking for a book or a couple of books to gift my team this holiday season. I would like books that focus on communication and taking ownership. Any recommendations?

Anyone taking time off to spend time with family this week? I have the rest of the week off, and I'm heading to my mother's house tomorrow to help get things started. What's your favorite Black holiday tradition? Our family takes a shot together before we have Thanksgiving dinner 🤣.

Do you guys give your boss's New Years' gifts? I'm thinking of doing one since I didn't give a holiday gift but thought it maybe weird

Holiday Season - at my former company, around this time of year I would have already gotten a ton of gift baskets etc. - not something I would ever take home but open up for the team and leave out. Started somewhere new last November, have dealt with multiple firms in various regions of the last year, many of which have billed several $100ks, have yet to receive anything. Are firms no longer doing this post COVID?

Since I can’t really post anywhere else rn lol, I’d love some feed back on this offer I received. It my first one for a pr account coordinator in nyc: 45k, pto 17 days (but doesn’t start until next year) and thats pretty much it. I have 1 yoe + master’s and I plan to negotiate but working out how much

Morning! Being laid off sux, I been down this road 5x in my career it never bets easier.

How do you prioritize skills?

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but who do you all use for financial management/financial advisors? My stuff is getting a little complex with some real estate and retirement accounts.

Hear that appraisals happen for an employee every year around the first ever joining date. Is this true? And, does performance review happens with your manager or how does it work ?

How many people we have in this group ? Any idea how I can check ?

Does this debate remind anyone of an agency meeting, where people just talk over each other?

Currently a Wealth Advisor for Citi but I honestly hate it here with a passion it’s the worst company I’ve ever worked for in my life and I’ve been in Wealth Management in the banking channel for over a decade. Series 7, Series 63, Life, CFP, ChFC, and soon to have my MBA with a focus in Mergers & Acquisitions. I’m look to enter another area of Finance at this point instead of starting over somewhere else from scratch, but not sure what direction to go. Interested in Investment Banking or M&A.

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

Does anybody know what the typical salary range is and total comp for someone starting out as an internal or external wholesaler? If you are one of these, can you share about your experience in terms of whether you liked it or not, work life balance, travel, etc?

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.

Is anybody here a notary? And how much are you making from that? Is it a potential side-hustle?
