Hi,
7B SSE here, PMR 0.88, YOE 7.2
What is the hike expectations I can have, as an average performer?

Any other hiring managers feeling like all of your candidates are asking for more money last minute just to see how far they can go? Like if we say the range is 110-130K, they say they’re looking for 135K, you offer 135K and then they say they won’t take the job for less than 150? Not even with competing offers. It’s hard for me to stay excited about wanting to work with someone when they do that. What a waste of everyone’s time.

@McGraw Hill any idea on salary for academic design roles ?

What are your favorite restaurants/activities that are a quick drive from the city?

Does anyone have any idea of a really, really nice and high-end thing to do with a client in the Chicago western suburbs? Something roughly equivalent to Alinea with wine pairing, but in the western suburbs. It needn't center on food and wine; I just used Alinea as an example as to price point and general impression.

I work in Monitor Deloitte now. How different is it from MBB?

Hey! Ive been in banking as Licensed RM, I just need 7 and 65 and I’m looking to move to the securities. I’ve interviewed with AXA and Mutual of Omaha, but I need a recommendation for an entry-level.

recently asked a question about going to law school with an accounting degree. follow up on that- if i work 1-2 years at my current firm (offered 72,500 full time after graduating undergrad) and acquire my cpa (courses and exam fees paid for by the firm), then apply to law school, would that be more beneficial? ive been reading a lot that work experience helps with the application, alongside having a high gpa and LSAT score

So, Partners... What's your spending breakdown like? Curious to see what expenses y'all have. # of yrs as Partner may also help.

Thanks for sharing! Again, just for fun and curiosity.

Any other PMs finding it way harder than you thought when EVERYBODY is working remote? Woof, what used to be a drive by chat if I didn’t look busy or wasn’t in a mtg is now a text/chat/email

Digital/digitally-savvy PMs, can I pick your brains? I’m up for a Sr. PM position at a creative agency working mainly w/tech clients. My background is more print based, especially the last couple years. When I was working in digital, it was very straightforward (mostly static/animated banners with a little bit of social). Where can I brush up on digital trends? Which agencies’ work should I check out? Any blogs worth catching up on? Thanks!

Do we need to submit rent agreement for claiming rent or just rent receipts?

How to approach re-negotiating the offer after initially accepting the offer? Is it fine to re-negotiate with a counteroffer? If so, when is the best time to approach the company for re-negotiation?

Planning to make my way down south to buy a road bike and a kayak. I heard they’re not allowing any crossing if it’s not for essential services. Will this change if I get vaccinated?

Dating my bf for about 6 months and he’s best friends with his mom and tells her everything. He even told his mom about the one time I tried a drug, before I met him. I thought I told him in confidence and now I found out he told her. How would you feel?

What certificates/training should I do in order to apply for a brand manager/marketing manager on the brand side? Almost regretting my choices since I come from a prominent pharma ad agency as an account, and it seems like most brands consider account as sales, and limit pharma transition into non-pharma industry.

Would ETH be the next BTC?
