Got an offer with the 10% salary bump I asked for but now I think I could have asked and got more. Any suggestions on what I should do? Is 10% worth the jump from Big 4 to Boutique ?

10% is nothing . But assuming you’ll get more work life balance then maybe. But it all depends on what you’re looking for. Is it money, work/life, both?

Hello, I have received an offer from Southwest Airlines as a Associate Technology Analyst with their direct college hire program. Will be graduating in May with a degree in MIS and also have internships experience as a Business Systems analyst intern.

Hi everyone! How did you discuss with your boss all the time you’d be needing to take off for appointments? My boss absolutely hates when people take time off. Company policy is at least a week ahead of time - she says she needs at least 2. Also when someone requests off a couple days in March then a couple days in April for example, she gets annoyed and says they are requesting too much time (even if they have plenty of PTO available).
