Anybody worried about the market?
When someone in the creative department turns 40.

When is the good time to tell the company that I am 3 months pregnant. My date of joining is 18th of July. I understand by law I need to finish 80days with the company before I avail maternity benefits which I can easily do in next 3 months.
I want to understand if women who go on maternity leave during probation are treated differently or if there will be discrimination once I let them know about my situation. Wipro Accenture Allstate Quantiphi analytics pvt ltd.

Does anyone have any insights on what a typical Sr. Associate Director makes at Boehringer Ingelheim? I have a range of 170-180k which I think is fair but don’t want to be underpaid. Also, any information regarding retirement planning or medical/dental benefits would be helpful. Haven’t gotten much out of HR. Thanks in advance!

I made a big change from healthcare into freelance/digital marketing. Took a pretty big pay cut initially, but within 2 years, worked my way up to a livable salary. I don't regret it. I always wanted to utilize my creative juices.
Yes, I made a jump from marketing to tech and while it was a steep learning curve, it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. The first job was a passion that didnt bring me a lot of money and the other was a job that gave possibilities to follow other passions and hobbies. I went from writing campaign copy and managing social media calendars to working in product management and eventually learning basic coding and data tools. The salary shift was significant, around $60K to over $100K within a couple of years. It wasn’t easy, but I don’t regret it at all. The key was building transferable skills, taking courses to fill gaps, and networking with people already in the industry.
