EY 🐠 thoughts on telling your team you're taking vacation but just hitting the admin/WBL code for a few days?

Will we get extra salary if we worked on holiday in tcs. In timesheet its showing red means holiday

Going back to work tomorrow after a 2 week long vacation. Scared to check my emails 😭😭😭

I have a phone screen with American Express. Does anyone know how many days of PTO is allotted?

Morning! Being laid off sux, I been down this road 5x in my career it never bets easier.

Dust off contacts and make your rounds
* if you’re in a good position to take time off do some, seems we all need a mental break anyway

Need advise ,
I have my Dropbox appointment for H1b stamping .
I have taken PTO for 3 weeks but Chennai consulate is taking about 6 weeks to complete . My question is should I apply for PTO for another 3 weeks or should I take LOA (no sure if I’m allowed to take on H1B visa)

We're discussing the company holiday plan and it looks like my manager is going to pressure me to work on Thanksgiving this year. Late-stage capitalist america, now without holidays!

California 🐟 does your vacation payout when you leave your job get taxed at regular wage, or bonus, levels? Does your employer have discretion to choose?

For all you retail people...are you experiencing a very slow holiday season? I am a retail manager and I feel like this season has been freakishly slow. I thought we would at least match last year's number or be up a little bit but we are trending down. I talked to employees of other stores in the mall and they are saying the same thing. Is anyone else experiencing this in their market?

Luggage delay claim question

I used Chase explorer to buy tickets for my vacation and luggages were delayed for a month. Per chase term I am entitled $100 a day for 3 days. But the claim agency chase used has been asking for airlines response, which has not came (2month+ now). I am concerned insurance will use this as an excuse to never compensate. Is there a good way to handle this situation?
TIA

I need help. I'm dealing with multiple losses in the same week and having a hard time... I took some time off from work but I have no motivation to do anything. I don't want to go back to work and don't care about my work right now. I want to quit but I don't want to make a rash decision but need a long break. It's also not fair to my team that I can't give it my 100%. What can I do?

Does Oracle have holiday shutdown?

Looking at full-time and application asks for expected salary and then expected total compensation as a number. How should I figure out the second? Health insurance, bonuses, life insurance, equity, PTO? I studied art, not math.

I want to take this moment to wish everyone a happy new year. Still on holiday vacation.

Do we observe a holiday on 1st November?

How is Forvis? I am thinking about applying for an entry level audit associate position. Is it nice working for them? Do you get to travel on audits? Also, is the unlimited pto truly unlimited?

Anyone in Vancouver want a Programmer Analyst role doing data conversion from Oracle into WD? UBC is a great employer that pays well for Vancouver / Canada and the work is remote, though you have to be in Canada. 4 weeks vacation and benefits start on day 1

Is Tokyo doable as a solo traveler with zero knowledge of the language? Thinking of doing a group trip there but adding on a few days alone in Tokyo at the beginning. I’m pretty well traveled in general and do just fine alone, but a different alphabet certainly makes things harder (if translations aren’t common). Female if that makes a difference.

I am thrilled to announce we just passed the 1,000 member mark, and on a Friday to boot.

I am beyond thrilled to see there so many professionals who enjoy the brown water! Granted it’s still the middle of the day, but let’s see those TGIF/celebratory drinks! 🥳🥃

What's the most natural next step for a marketing coordinator?

After you are stealth laid off, other than job search, what do you do? I assume they won’t give you work and even if they do, you can politely decline? How do you feel about you are not progressing anymore and seeing other people progressing in their career? I have no intention to make partner, but still feel a bit stuck not doing that much.

Has anyone freelanced (remotely) for a company overseas? How did you handle contract/payment?

Any restrictions on referring to opposing side’s non-privileged metadata in motion practice? My gut says it’s just data like any other and fair game.

Does anyone really, really love their job? Or do you just do it to pay bills and get to the weekend? I'm curious how many people actually truly love what they do

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell. I was on it one time for about 10 minutes and could feel myself becoming mentally unwell in just those 10 minutes. The human brain is not designed to deal with the sheer amount of sensory overload that app gives you. I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.

GSP San Fran or Leo Chicago?

Any good places to relax near Vegas, within a day or so drive? I'm taking a long road trip and ending there and want to relax somewhere before flying out. Ideally not more than $200 a night. Understand that it's the desert but thought maybe some good lakes or desert resorts nearby

1st year SPED teacher here, If you had $700 to spend on your classroom what would you get?? I don't know what I am missing out on. :)

Good books for case prep/valuation. Econ consulting, if relevant. TIA

Accepted a new job at competing Big 4 but got a message from a recruiter from MBB. How do I respond to the recruiter? Is it worth it to take the call and be honest with them?

2yrs of post-undergrad experience at D and have offers from two FAANG companies. Worth it to stick it out for a couple more years to open up more offers down the road, or should I get out while I can?

What should I do in LA tonight? Staying around west LA.

A first for me, after 1.6 million miles. Thankful for a delay. The delay on the connector saved me a night at ord Hilton after the ludicrous delay on the first leg.t. Truly grateful united

Which consulting firms are hiring for experienced Associate position? Have a friend who got laid off and looking for another job.

Looking for honest opinions, how diverse are MBBs?

Best books on leadership and self development?

Anyone have good book recommendations that I can learn from and are entertaining? Trying to survive a 10 hour flight this weekend 🆘🆘🆘

Feeling like I don't 'belong' in society - like I'm a serious imposter just trying to do life because it's mandatory. Anyone else feel this way or have any advice?

Really tired of societal norms. Is I could go back 10 years, I would do things so differently.

Looking at my closet, I feel like there are 5-10 dress shirts I never wear but are in good condition. Probably paid like $30 for each. I feel so wasteful. Am I alone?

EY fish - when you are laid off, is it immediate the day you're told or do you get a little warning?

Hey Parent 🐠! What is the best parenting philosophy book that you would recommend? Father of a 9 month old, trying to prepare for what is probably my biggest responsibility in life.

Looking to improve general communication skills (especially around structuring narrative/ key messages), any books/courses that you would recommend?

Looking at getting a scrum master cert. Any insight to a certified scrum master (csm), professional scrum master (psm), or certified scrum product owner (cspo). Not sure which is most valuable. TIA

What’s the longest anyone has ever delayed a start date? Have an imminent industry offer, but another firm is offering me 1.5X the comp for a 9 month contract and very interesting work
