I’d want to make sure the clients stay through the transition, and I don’t want to join a dying industry. Thoughts and advice?

How is everyone planning their family vacations? Specially looking for people with kids. I have 2 kids and a family vacation for 4 people for a week easily comes to a min of 5k -6k (flight, car, hotel, eating out every day, entertainment tickets) and if we end up taking 2-3 vacations per year, it costs about 15-20k. This feels like a lot, or is everyone spending this much?

I’m currently a PM and I’m looking to branch my career into becoming a Creative Director. How do I get started?

I randomly applied for a job opening with a smaller tech company. Within five days, I got an offer that pays 62% more than my current salary! A part of me is exhilarated, but a part of me feels like I tricked them all. I didn’t lie during the interview, but I definitely played up some of my accomplishments. I also spent extensive hours prepping for the interviews and planned stories that made simple projects seem very elaborate and complex.
How common is this feeling after a job offer?

Job transition question: I recently accepted an offer for a new role with Merrill Lynch, the following day I was fired from my previous employer. I haven’t filled out the updated work history background check info yet. The reason for termination was due to performance expectations not being met.

Wondering what I should do.

I have a close friend who graduated with a 2.5 GPA from a no name brand school.. he’s looking for entry level Business Analyst, Financial Analyst, PM or business related rotation programs and having a real hard time.

Is he kind of screwed because of his GPA? 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

Any advice or success stories would be appreciated!
