I have, the toxic masculinity was unbearable and he was my direct supervisor. I couldn't take it and after 6 months I found another job at FAANG

Honestly, depends on the co-worker, if I feel he/she needs it more then yes.

No but if I was in that situation my decision to try to fix or leave would depend on who my manager likes more :D. Also watch out for higher ups (directors) liking the other person more. Sad but true fact.

Never tell your colleagues where you are joining beforehand.
Not all are good advisors, some will ruin your mind with their opinions.

I’m a new analyst at a PE firm, and my associate keeps blaming me for things she does wrong. Like she will tell me I made the wrong change, even though she is the one who changed it. Or in calls with other people, she won’t take responsibility for things that she told me to do that the other person calls out as wrong. How can I handle this situation without making her mad but also not letting her step all over me?

I got an offer in industry! Feeling excited but at the same time very confused. It’s a good offer that I don’t want to pass up but also feel extremely bad leaving during busy season. Is a 3 week notice enough? Do I let this opportunity go and just hope something will line up down the road ? Thoughts ?
