Do you try to get to know your direct reports as a person? How do you set your boundaries so that they still respect you as a leader? What are some areas you would never want to discuss or do as their leader? For example, hanging out with your team outside of work.

I like to have a nice healthy balance hanging out maybe every so often

are there any topics that you consider off limits?

Are you saying do we hang out with our direct reports on a personal level? A little confused by your wording. I don’t I don’t cross those lines.

I was just using that as an example of what a manager might consider off limits. At my company though, there are lots of direct report/manager best friends relationships

Hi all! Is anyone here in Underwriting? Just want some thoughts on this as i’ve recently gotten an offer for an Underwriting Associate position and have never done any salary negotiations before. Does it seem unrealistic for my counter offer to be 12k more than the original offer? Considering that the original offer is roughly 8k less than the market salary. Plus i’m also accounting for wiggle room as i’m not expecting them to actually agree with the full 12k counter offer
