Do you ever experience workloads that keep growing but no one ever asks if you’re ok? How do you send the signal that it’s just getting too much without being seen as weak?

You ask for assistant from your coworkers

Unfortunately they experience it too!

You don’t “send a signal.” You sit down with your manager and ask them to help you prioritize your workload and determine which tasks you can offload to others.

This is a great idea, will see how it goes!

Does anyone still have the Verizon grandfathered unlimited phone plan? I’ve had it on a family plan w/my mom for years, but wondering if I should give it up since I mainly kept it to stream video while traveling without worrying about being throttled, but I’m not traveling anytime soon. If you had it and switched to a cheaper plan, do you regret switching? My mom was offered a 55+ unlimited plan open only to Florida residents, but I saw reports online that people had trouble with throttling.

I am currently a Senior Consultant in KPMG Australia’s human capital advisory function - however I have been recently offered a role with Accenture Australia’s human capital advisory function as an ‘Associate Manager’ with a 15K salary bump and an enticing bonus structure - with some very cool clients that they mentioned to me in their interview round. The issue is, my KPMG Partner has mentioned that I *may* be up for promotion nxt July. I am so stuck, not sure whether to take it or not.

I went from making $70k the last 7 years to now started a new job a month ago making $130k plus $10k bonus every year, and $60k in RSUs. I have $70k in my 401k and around $50k in savings. Want to get out of the Silicon Valley which has been home my whole life and buy in TX or AZ a ~$400k house. I have about $20k in student loans which my dad has offered to pay (wants to make up for never supporting me) but I’m waiting to see what Biden decides for student loans. Is this feasible?

Hi all,

I am currently working as an SCM functional consultant at Infosys on ERP tools like Fusion and 11i for the past 17 months; I have an interview scheduled at Deloitte USI for a similar profile.

Can anybody share their interview experience so that it can help me to prepare better? Also, if anyone can share what all to expect in the interview, that will be very helpful

Thanks in advance
