What's the current hiring situation at Google Silicon?
Are they becoming conservative compared to how they were a month or two ago in the compensation?

Anyone who joined recently/ got an offer recently, please comment.

I have gone through the interview process recently and waiting for HR to get back.

Thanks!

Through a lot of comp discussions I heard a lot of talk of “making you whole” when things get better. Am I drinking the kool-aid by believing this? Is this just meant to prevent further questions that the firm does not know the answer to?

So I worked from home yesterday and my husband had a sneak peak on my meetings with clients (which I’m very new to being a senior). He mention that I should read some sales pitch books of some sorts so I can get a process down and not be drain from having genuine conversations with every client. I think it’s a great idea. Anyone have thoughts or recommendation?

Favorite personal development book(s) that changed your perspective and/or life?

Consulting firms, how does your company use utilization as a performance metric? And what are your targets (e.g, Junior practitioners vs senior)

Good resources to find industry metrics? Interested to see how carriers rank up by product type in direct written premium, new business, combined ratios, etc.

How many of you have been flying to clients?

Opinions on tipping culture?

Do I work at a toxic workplace?

We had a team touchbase where we as a group were asked our concerns regarding year end. I raised my concerns about staffing/expectations (the team is 75% new) since last year was demanding with us being up to 1 AM the day before deadline.

My director was on the call but not my VP. My VP reached out today and said he doesn’t appreciate hearing such comments on the grapevine but I was confused b/c all i did was answer the question I was asked.

Anyone been fired for stopping a thief at Apple?

Creatives in tech, curious how many of you are brand design creatives vs. ad creatives? Also curious if you feel there’s an advantage to specializing in one vs the other

I can’t be the only person who is thrilled they are banning “emotional support” animals from the cabin of a plane.

I hate to tell all these folks wearing masks on my flight that they only help to prevent you from infecting others. They do nothing to prevent you from inhaling airborne pathogens.

Person brought a pit bull onto the flight. I’m shocked there is not a breed restriction

Anyone can tell me what an airport lounge looks like?

ATL airport a chaos this morning... Regular check point an hour long to clear..

I have a game I love to play at the airport. I find someone who has the most vague resemblance to someone famous and then insist they are that person.

Like "Oh my God, you're Tom Hanks! I love so many of your movies and I think you are great and so funny in interviews. How are you feeling? I heard you had covid?"

Guy who very very vaguely resembles Tom Hanks insists he isn't. Then I keep insisting he is.

This is a fun way to pass time during layovers.

Any of you still flying to client site?
