WV if you can afford it

24 is pretty young to be going to WV. It’s a mix but it skews older. Live somewhere in the EV while you still can

Are you a young 24 or an older soul? East Village skews very young.

It gets more manageable on the east side of tompkins

East Village 💯
Moved there at 24 (also F) and loved it

Would you feel comfortable telling HR that your service line’s culture sucks and name the individuals who cause it? Or is a better approach saying it’s the leadership in general creating a negative and toxic culture? How effective are these conversations really? Trying to assess if there’s any point in bringing this up. Obviously HR works for the company and an employee sharing their thoughts on the unsupportive, cold leaders could bite me in the long run.
