Brigsby sits in my office doorway, forever hopeful it’s time for another can of cat food.

What does a first year director in advisory make vs a third year director at KPMG

Got promoted to Associated Director. I feel like don’t look the part. I still have my new hire backpack! Is there a nice laptop bag that gives MD vibes? I don’t like the brown logo bags from LV though. Doesn’t have to be a brand name or expensive, just want to look polished and not transitory. Like I’ve finally arrived.

I’ve never been to a bridal shower before and have one coming up soon. Do y’all have any gift ideas? Preferable under $100. Thank you 😊 FYI they didn’t post a registry

I’m depressed. Nothing unique about my depression - I’m in big law, my career defines me, when I’m not working I can’t find the will to get off the couch, I’m sad or I’m numb…I know I’m the only one that can make a change to my life…I’m on antidepressants. Just extremely unmotivated and paralyzed. Self-help books are not for me, but I am curious - has anyone tried a guided depression/anxiety journal? Any recommendations if so? Or, if you have experienced the same, what steps did you take?

Has anyone ever told their directors/partner at work they are considering leaving without having an offer in hand?

Anyone here ever written a white paper? How common is it in our industry?

I recently joined ZS. Feels quite intimidating to see people working for so long hours. Anyone else there who felt same? Also how did you cope with it?

I am traveling back to the US with family. I am on H1, my brother is on F1 and my parents are on B1 visas. When we are at the port of entry to the US can all of us report to the CBP officer at the same time? Or should we go one by one and report to CBP?

We’re losing employees, understandably so, because of how customers behave. That means longer wait times for support which makes customers even angrier. What happens when there is no one left to do the job?

Who else would be 100% OK if they got laid off?

Anyone have experience working in Public Sector Audit in Boston? I am looking to learn a bit more about what life would be like.

Just went from 5th to 2nd and would love to know classroom management ideas. Anything to stay away from? Thanks!

Random Tangent: After year end results were delivered, staff received meager 3.8% adjustments, which is far from the news reports of 7.9% USA inflation. In short, essentially everyone in the company just took a paycut. And yet there's bafflement in the C suite when we see less than a week later a handful of key contributors leaving.

Am I the only one who doesn’t know who Nipsey is? At least until this week?

Hi,

What’s the top M&A firm in Tampa? Any insights into hours, compensation, culture, deal types, size of the group, etc.?

Question for PwC & EY 🐠? Is there an option to do premium processing for a H1B transfer?

I am a Reliability Maintenance 3P contractor for Amazon. I graduated with my Bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering on June 2022. I’ve been working with Amazon for a year, but there’s a lack of prospective EE positions within the company. The job postings I see are either less or barely above my current salary. I’m not sure if staying longer is beneficial for my future career as an Electrical engineer. I plan on getting my FE license within the next 6 months. Any suggestions will be appreciated

Anyone from Amazon Austin willing to provide a referral?

My problem with this bowl is it makes me want one of each kind of cat I see here and I have neither the space nor the budget!

Best non-tracking clumping litter? I’m tired of having to vacuum my entire apartment daily 😩

My cat has taken a liking to the carpet at my mom’s place. Any tips? Maybe a new kind of scratcher?
Still using her tower posts as well, and got her a flat mat like the carpet (could care less for this one). I guess carpet feels like her sisal but softer and all over the second floor lol. Especially like the carpet stairs.
