Probably the wrong group to post in but I legit have a spending problem and wonder if any of you guys have had success going on financial diets when you love fashion and indulging. 😂

If we extend travel and stay at client city over the weekend, are meals covered? I read the polices and it says yes, need reassurance.

Hi all, can anyone recommend an email marketing app with modern templates and analytics? Are there any that integrate with CRM more easily than others? I'm familiar with Constant Contact and Mail Chimp.

Expected salary for ESG/Sustainability Senior Consulting roles? 5.5 YOE in ESG impact measurement. Non-MBA. Based in Philadelphia. Looking at roles at all four of the Big 4 firms.

I’m mid-level in my HR career at my current company and an upcoming Master’s graduate. Studying for my SHRM-CP too. How did you make the transition to that next level? What skills do you need, or is it really just based on YOE (I am the youngest compared to my teammates, many who have 10+ YOE)? I feel like career pathing is not very clear at my company. Each time I ask for guidance on this from my manager, I get told they’ll look into it.... would love some external mentorship and thoughts 🙏🏼

Close Friend has been visiting home and has been messaging me every day venting about the trip and about some of the things she’s been going through and so in an effort to help her enjoy the trip have been replying with long paragraphs of encouragement and support, all while going through my own hardships. But yesterday I had a breakdown and a bad day, I told them that and she replied “I’m sorry you’re feeling down today, I’m sorry I can’t be of more help” and that was it…am I wrong to be upset?

How long would I expect to wait for a lateral hire decision after a super day? I know it’s a bit different than university hires because super days are pretty structured and done with all candidates around the same exact time, so I’m wondering if I should expect to wait a few days or weeks.
