lol. You can do this! I child cpa and working at a top firm and no parents now. So just enjoy the ride and do your personal best. i’m still working just be@happy. Don’t let them push you around or derail your career. take laterals if you want to pivot and juggle when you raise the kids and and later is a hedge to keep your seat with agism. just saying….TGiF and enjoy the weekend.

google it late 40s your protected supposedly. but maybe 50s really.

If it was so easy to “not let them push me around” and “derail my career” I would but it’s hard when your manager’s managers hate you for no reason or just because you don’t kiss their 🍑

Thank you for that! I’ll be turning 45 soon and have been feeling every bit of it at home and at work. Will do more to enjoy the now and just keep doing my best, instead of worrying about years from now and what everyone else is doing. When you hit a roadblock it is time to make some different moves.

Hi Fishes,

I just received an offer from CTS -16.45LPA
16 - Fixed & 45k variable component with 1Lakh joining bonus. I'm having 5.8 YOE working as Senior ACon with current CTC - 11lpa
I have cleared 2nd round(managerial) with TCS direct project recruitment and waiting for salary negotiation.

My priorities are Steady growth, Work life balance, Job security.

Hi Everyone,
I need your views and suggestions. I have two doubts:
1. Is it fair to leave an organisation (big brand) after a year as the environment is real toxic and there’s no career growth as well in terms of good work.
2. If I have to make a switch do I really have to target big brands only or can try for medium and small size companies too.

A couple falls in love and moves in together. One person is wealthy and the other is not. The wealthy partner pays for most of the basic home necessities. The wealthy partner also pays for many vacations including the children of both partners. The wealthy partner also pays for expensive car repairs and college tuition for the children of the less wealthy partner. Then, the couple breaks up. Does the wealthy partner have rights to reimbursement? They never married.

Looking for tips from seniors. I'm at A1 level at a litigation firm, stepping out of the deer-in-headlights phase. With the Partners assigning work to me in teams of 2-3, there's potential for growth. But with the sheer amount and depth of work on each case it's challenging to take on a more "adult" role. I often find myself in a more assistive role, either by my choice or the Partners'.
How can I accelerate my progress? What are Partners' and Seniors' expectations from year one associates?
