"Everyone should be in a much better place once our weekly mental health sessions begin". We had an all hands meeting and a lot of us addressed some real concerns we have with the way the company functions, and it didn't feel great to be in the bathroom and here our VP tell someone that mental health session were gonna fix the issues. Like the issues are all with us, and not with the company. Leadership really does see the rest of us little pawns they can move around to see what works. I'm frustrated and it's only 8:30AM!! This is why you don't come to work early.

Hi fishes,
I have accepted an offer from company Aone month back. Still 60 days are left in my notice period.
Now I have a better offer from company B.
Is it good to ask counter offer to company A?.
If yes, when should I ask. Now itself or few days before the joining date.?

I think all the people who say they have a hard time working at home either have no discipline or live in a hole in the wall. I love wfh in my mansion with sprawling space and triple screen monitors.

Has anyone successfully sold your gently used clothing for cash on the spot anywhere in Chicagoland? If yes, where? Have a lot of nice stuff that I’m bored of but Poshmark takes too much effort for me and I find consignment stores usually take months until anything sells and then getting your money is a pain. So looking for instant cash. TIA

So, I’m interviewing for a position that fits perfectly, HR likes my profile, had great conversations with them. Today I had a Panel interview with HR and the hiring manager. The manager is not experienced, it’s her first r manager role and she’s been in it for 3 months. I was prepared but was out of breath the entire interview, had a knot in my throat, had trouble finding my words. It’s like I had PTSD when this manager came into the picture. Ever had that?

So overheard after work:

I left a company a while back and a coworker of mine that also left just informed me that one of the C level execs has an SEC decision against him for embezzling several million.

This was from before I worked there...

Alright, Fishbowl - whats the juiciest gossip you heard this week at work?

What's the weirdest thing anyone has ever said to you at work? One time a co-worker divulged to me that they had a collection of troll dolls that they named and sometimes still played with.

“Fuck it I’m going to PDF this bitch"

“What do you guys see...a mouse or a blue screen”

“I get such a rush when I’m eating a taco."

“The shaft is not always welcome, but but hole always is.”

What type of background check do HF/PE/VC forms so these days? Employment, education and felonies are a given (I think) but is fingerprinting and drug testing still in the mix? How about credit score?

From a UX Director... “Design is everything. You’re nothing without design.” Excuse me?

How you came into the company will define your path. That’s why you’ll never be successful switching departments.

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?

Just to be 100% clear, this entire platform is anonymous, right?

“I feel like I’m the stupidest person here”
“You are not stupid. You literally work at one of the top consulting firms in the world”
“I literally got a 6% in one exam during undergrad”
“Well damn I guess you are stupid”

Today someone quit and just straight up walked out of the office. Like something you'd see in a movie. My jaw is still open. You ever seen this happen?

Not the money, not the title, bonus or anything, but oh the prestige.
