Bunch of busy work with the ‘hopes’ of promotion vs standing up for meaningful work (which means saying no to admin low value work) and risking promotion or even getting on the list of not good standing? I’m frustrated with having to do whimsical work just because my manager could justify in the moment why it’s meaningful and could flip later just because his manager and his to his manager said so.
What would you choose and why? Have you came across any retaliation?

What do you guys think about blue suits (not quite navy) being used as a normal suit for work, interviews, etc? I may just be colour blind but I feel like most navy’s are just too close to black

Currently 601 in CCB with 19LPA TC, expecting promotion this year. What amount of total compensation I can expect for 602 level?

Comparable salaries?

Applying for promotion to Digital Design Lead. 15 YoE, currently making about 82k + profit share. 3rd in seniority and department is currently restructuring. Based on some other internal salary ranges, planning to to ask for 106k, about a 30% jump. How does this look?

What should I reasonably expect from a junior?

I manage a junior developer that's been with the company for about 18 months. I end up providing them of TON of support. I need to give them extremely detailed instructions or they fail. For bugs, I need to point them to a specific function that's causing the bug. For new features, I'm basically writing their method signatures and defining their test cases.

I've tried asking them to do more on their own, but when I do, they fail spectacularly.

Invited to a recruiting/networking session for an analyst level role at a Bain Capital. Excuse my naivete, but is business professional (full suit) the expectation here? Unfortunately my only well fitting suit was torn recently so trying to see if I can get away with another outfit

Any recommendations for a work desk?
Not looking for something too big or pricey. Easy assembly / disassembly is a plus.
I see foldable desks going for $100. Any foldable standing desks out there?

I have been promised a promotion three times now, but when the time comes, I'm told I'm not there yet. Why promise something if you clearly don't want to execute it?

Looking for some guidance/ input regarding salaries...

There is a partner that, without fail, calls on Fridays after 6pm anytime I am staffed with him. It’s extremely frustrating since his calls are usually non-urgent and I make it a point to check in early in the day to address anything. Any advice?

Hi there, wanted to know about promotion policy in UST. Tried to find about it, but not many have idea i believe. About to complete a year, but no news on same. Please reply if any idea. Thanks!

My natural instinct is to assume rejection if I have conflict with a partner or don’t think my feelings are reciprocated. I’ll try to bring it up with them, but I’ll say “if you want to end this feel free” so it doesn’t hurt me (and they can say what they really mean instead of sugarcoating). Someone told me today that they just assume I’m not interested because I always seem to “run” but I’m not sure how to bring up problems/feelings otherwise. How do you approach these hard questions?

True or False: If a partner sends perfect emails (spelling, grammar, and punctuation), they ain’t really a boss. In other words, more short hand = more of a boss.

Any advice on dealing with a Partner who lacks project management/leadership skills? I'll take any suggestion...a podcast, a TedTalk, a yoga position, wine, hard liquor, basically anything.

Tax Staff 1, currently making 56k. You think it’s wild if I ask for 59/60 as a salary raise ?

A CRO offerred me an internal consulting/biz dev role. They offered 145k TC (20% bump) and slightly better benefits. They also offered accelerated path (6mo to 1yr) to MC. While promotion to MC at my current company is at least 1 year away. The job is interesting to me and fits my careery goal. But my big concern is that I've only been with my current company for a year (this is my first job, post PhD). Would this affect my resume in the future in terms of being viewed as "job hopping"?

Lesson learnt:

Never tell your colleagues where you are joining beforehand.
Not all are good advisors, some will ruin your mind with their opinions.

Why are FIRE minded people into having multiple investment properties? It sounds like a nightmare having to deal with tenants and if you want dividends, can’t you just invest in REIT or preferred stock ETF? Are returns that much better?
