Hi Fish
I saw a post about people looking for rental deals in Chicago.

My building is offering a promotion for anyone that's referred from a current resident. I get a discount credit on rent and you would get one month free, plus a $400 rental credit, plus a $500 Amazon gift card.

There's no move/out fees and rent varies from ~1600 to 2,000 depending if you want a studio, one-bed, or two-bed.

Lakeview Boystown area, new building with ceiling to floor windows.

If you're interested DM me!

I am admitted to the full-time MBA program at Cornell, Goizueta, and Gtech Scheller.

I am planning to build a successful company. Any thoughts on which B school will be suitable to raise funds and make valuable connections?

Been at my job for 6 months and I got a 2% raise based on People Review cycle. Not sure if I should ask for more since I’ll be the only designer going forward.

Hey all! Has anyone ever heard of people using an offer from another firm to get a promotion or progression and 30-40% raise at EY? Pros/cons?

Anyone here a Client Onboarding Associate for an RIA? We have YE reviews coming up soon. I’m pretty sure I am a shoe in for a promotion, but in case I don’t get it (god-forbid), what is the going salary for this position? I would definitely ask for a raise and a merit bass bonus, so I want to gauge what you all think a good salary is for this role. Any thoughts? Oh! I am also based in NYC.

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC. Should I stay it out and wait for TC to align or take the promotion and jump ship bc I will likely get paid more elsewhere given how recruiters/other companies eat up hiring recently promoted ppl from other firms?

Hi Experienced TCSers,

My question is since I got two consecutive A bands, is there a possibility of promotion to ITA in the next couple of quarters, heard we are eligible for ITA after >3.5yoe, if started from a fresher...is it true?

Pls help me with ur experience...TIA 🙏🏾🥺

I have a query, my Current Salary is 3.15 Lacs with 3 years experience in Customer service , I applied for new position in Airbnb and salary negotiation is next step, how to know what are the market standards for this job and as per discussion with other employee with same experience , he is getting 5 Lacs in that company but asking for 5.5 lacs is like 70% , I was hired by my last company during pandemic and was offered no raise from my previous salary
Is it recommended to ask for 66% raise?

Dear Fishes,
I have a query. I have purchased a macbook whose price exceeds the prescribed limit. How do I raise a request in concur portal as it throws an exception ( EEA approval required) when I input the actual expense as the amount greater than the limit. Can I go ahead and mention the prescribed amount only in the expense field?

Hi all,

Hoping someone could advice on it. I recently accepted a job offer and it has been discussed and confirmed via email/phone that my starting salary is £26k and will raise to £28k after 6 months probationary period. Now, I have been sent the contract but there’s no specific statement about the £28k salary after probation.

It might be a stupid question but I am worried about raising this as an issue. Is this normal? Or is it better to ask for a revised contact with the specifics?

Need your valuable remarks on below

HCL - 23 lpa
Microland - 32 LPA + 50 K JB
ITC - 34 LPA
Experience - 8.9 years
Automation Architect

Requesting all to help me choose one of above based on -

WLB
Hikes and promotion
Career growth
Onsite opportunities

Thanks in advance
