Has anyone at PwC transitioned to IFS? My daughter is almost 2 but I honestly just don’t have the drive to stay in my LOS anymore. I’m assuming it will come with a pay cut?

Kids and ice. I think it’s super annoying as they want to fumble around in the freezer, play with the ice, and it just makes giving them effing water complicated which I don’t need. They’re six and four. I totally allow it on hot days. But today they would it shut up about how it’s not fair (I was having some). I fished my cubes out of my la croix, dumped them in the sink, started them down, and said problem solved. Am I losing it?

What’s the price of hp probook x360 435 g8 which D gave us?

When starting a role at a new company, do you typically spend the first month setting up 1:1 intro meetings with people from different teams that you work with or do you wait to run into people during meetings and introduce yourself along the way? Asking because I’m a huge introvert and prefer the latter.

Was at an event recently. Seems like advertising really only cares about diversity as it applies to white women. I think this industry wants to stay white.

To those of you who invest excess HSA funds, what do you normally buy?

I’m considering just VTI or VOO. Theoretically I won’t need these until retirement related medical expenses. Should I be concerned about unforeseen medical emergencies?

For reference, I just transferred by HSA balance that’s been piling up into a new brokerage account. It’s about $3,000, and I left $200 in my HSA account associate with the debit card. I’m 27 and incur basically no medical expenses.

Just received an offer for a TPM role - Fully remote TC - $125k base w/10% annual bonus (no stock options, no sign on bonus). My current - remote, could switch to hybrid, TC - $110 base w/10% annual bonus, $20k stock options vested over 4 years and a $5k sign on bonus I have to pay back if I leave before May 2023.

New company won’t budge on a sign on bonus. Does it still make sense to accept the offer?

Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I think that long-arm statutes are terrible for our system. You shouldn't be able to file in the state that you live in. As a policy matter, I feel the default should always be where the defendant lives unless the contract states otherwise.

Can we do anything if TCS deny the joining after confirming the date of joining, saying background verification failed, but no proper communication on what went wrong?my friend Resigned from previous job and unable to join tcs.

I am an “international” copywriter as they call us, and people at the agency are constantly changing my copy. Sometimes even without telling me. There always seems to be something “wrong” with it.

So, I and another American copywriter made an experiment the other day: I presented HIS copy and he presented MY copy. My stuff got so many corrections and his stuff didn’t get any.

Do any other international copywriters go through this bullshit?

Anyone works at Qualcomm, need a job referral for a manger role, thank you!

For the moms that work full time, I have nothing but respect for you!! I am at a point in my career where my husband and I are expecting our first and I want to start taking a back seat to my career and focus on family. For those of you that have a full time and part time parent working, what factors did you consider and how much income was reasonable to you?

What indoor activities do you mamas do with your LO in the winter? FTM and baby is 8 months

Do any of you work from home women have a standing desk and treadmill setup? Saw a post today on LinkedIn and it made me curious. Wondering if it’s really sustainable and if the treadmill makes a lot of noise.

Did anyone exclusively bottle feed with formula from birth? I’m made to feel like an amoral freak for considering it. I am fully aware BF is best cos of antibodies and bonding etc but I have a previous issue and need to consider formula + bottle as an alt. However *every* article I find or attempt to read up on this assumes you’ll only do it to supplement breastfeeding.
Are there *any* formula moms out there whose kid turned out OK?

How do you navigate not getting emotionally invested in work? I find myself getting really spun up when things get hard.

Mamas, how much do you spend on gifts for other kids/toddlers birthday parties? We just started our 3 year old in daycare/preschool and there’s a birthday party all the time it seems. For good friends we spend around $50-$100 for their kids gifts but it’s starting to add up, especially for classmates my kid doesn’t know too well. What’s your average?

Does/did your toddler put everything in their mouth? Any tips on how to stop this habit?

Any post-natal vitamins to recommend?

Hey ladies. In need of advice. My husband and I make the same salary, however, he makes overtime and I don’t. So technically that means he makes more than I do. Should I have him contribute more to the savings or bills if I do more of the housework?

Does anyone else still have a nanny coming to the house? I’m concerned we will either go on lockdown or either we or nanny will contract COVID. Trying to think about what the right thing to do is.

Hi ladies,
I’m a FTM that recently was diagnosed with antibody induced hypothyroidism. I’m currently at 19 weeks and have been on the lowest dosage of the thyroid meds since the beginning of my pregnancy. My TSH levels went up suddenly to around 4.1 ish and the doctor was a little puzzled as to why that happened, and did a blood test and saw I had antibodies against the thyroid gland. This happen to anyone? Was just anxious.

How do you deal with unequal salaries within global teams? In particular, between the UK and US? I am a manager in the UK and my senior team member who reports to me in the US, earns a third more than I do. HR in the UK believe I'm being paid fairly. I'm a female and he's a male so I also believe that a male in my position in the UK would be paid more.. Let alone what they'd be paid if they were based in the US. I love this job but I want to know how to ask for more£ at my review in April. Help!

What's the best way to teach 3.5 years old to not hijack other kids toys. He is okay with sharing his toys but whenever we visit friends, he would take toys of their kids and refuse to return. It's so embarrassing

Best way to fire a nanny? I hate to do this because she’s so nice, but we are just going in a different direction for the kids. I’m going to reduce my caseload (which includes a pay cut) so I can be home more. I’m currently working out the details with my firm but everything will likely be in place by January 2022. How much notice is appropriate to give? Does anyone have experience with this that can lend some advice?
