Any coat recommendations? Looking to spend under $400 mid/long length in a dark grey or black. Never bought a coat before looking for something good quality that won’t break the bank

Should I take this role?
Pros: 50k bump, company is full remote, no time tracking software, unlimited PTO, 10k in quarterly bonuses, vertical move in responsibility and title, will set me up for future roles in different companies with the title I am looking for (so strategic move)

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent to my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t grow my network as much, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)

I just got an offer from a company that I have mixed feelings about. Team seems great but Glassdoor reviews, not so much. I’m currently interviewing with a couple of other companies that are amazing and would be my too choices. However, I’m very early in the process so it will probably take a month or so to get to the offer stage with them. I don’t want to fall between two chairs for not taking this offer and then not getting any from other companies. What should I do? Best strategy?

I’ve been having a rough year with tough class. Today (day 101 of school) was actually the best day so far. I’m hopeful for a good tomorrow ❤️🤞🏻

If you were in a private company assistant controller position being offered $10k more to switch over to public and much better PTO days and fully remote as opposed to an in office position that I’m currently at in a Real estate growing company. Would u do the switch back to public (left public just recently)?

i have two offers, 115k and 105k. I would prefer the 105k job but they can’t match the 115k from my other offer. Has anyone ever left 10k at the table? I live in NYC Btw

What is your favorite book to read aloud to your students?

I need some ideas for my last hour class. I teach reading only and I have this class first hour for reading and then last hour again for “communication skills”.

I need things to keep them from going crazy, but want it to be purposeful also. Any suggestion?
