Has anyone here used short term disability insurance before? I’ve heard of more people using it on maternity leave and am curious about a couple things. 1) How easy the approval process was, and 2) Were you able to use it for maternity leave or did you use it for something else?

That’s awesome! I’ll have to look into that.

My coworker used short term disability for maternity and it was approved. She’s on her second kid now and she’s expected to be back in 8 months.

That’s amazing! I’m glad to hear it’s worked for someone

I never listen before whats is this .?

It’s a benefit that allows you job security while you’re on short term disability leave. Maternity leave now counts but I’m not 100% sure on the details

Hi all, I just got a job offer at PwC for a senior consultant position. The salary is 30% above my total comp right now, but I’m just worried about the amount of work I will have to put in compared to my amazing work life balance now. Does anyone have any experience moving from industry to consulting? I need some advice on what to do. I’m still early in my career (1.4yoe) so I feel like I shouldn’t care too much about wlb, but at the same time, I don’t want my mental health to suffer either.

When you look to choosing a position to apply for and lets assume you get to be choosy - will you go for a org with big HR team or smaller HR team? Currently an hrbp for a medium global org with 10 hrbps in the Americas org supporting different groups/ regions like i support canada and a business group - looking at a role where hrbp report to sr hrbp and she reports to Vp of HR. The TA Manager reports to the VP of Hr as well. Sounds like a smaller HR team - are there any benefits to this move?

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license.

I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?
