Hot take: Sometimes it’s not “workload,” it’s the way people talk to you that burns you out. I’ve been learning to pay attention to tone and micro-behaviors. Anyone else ever chalked something up to stress when it was really the environment?

Being respected and appreciated at work is important. Boundaries up and plan your escape!

PC1, by escape I meant plan to find another job.

Boundaries are different for everyone. But in OP’s case it sounds like they’re not being treated nicely.

A clarifier that boundaries are what WE will do when X happens, not about controlling other people. So for example, I might say…”I’m not going to engage in this conversation if you continue to speak to me in that way.” And the boundary is me leaving that conversation if it continues to be disrespectful.

Hi Everyone, I am trying to apply for a Technical Support role at Dropbox I’m entering all the required fields but there seems to be an issue, when I hit submit after filling the form, it doesn’t submit and throws error ‘Looks like you left this blank! Please fill out this required field’ when all the fields are entered already (I have checked so many times, and filled the form from scratch several times too). Anyone from Dropbox who can put me in touch with HR or suggest what I should do next?

For those in international tax planning, curious what you all think about the future in light of Pillar 1 and Pillar 2 (on top of beps measures like anti-hybrid rules, interest deduction limitations, etc.).

Short term I assume lots of planning work but curious on post-implementation

Hey Fishes,

Can anyone share their experiences after leaving consulting at Engagement manager / Project leader / CTL level and joining biz ops team in big tech?

Any insights on if and how the team dynamics, expectations etc change?

What is bad and what is good (probably WLB)?

I am moving to a team full of smart people (based on education and pedigree) but no one with consulting experience (which I think is a good thing?)

Thank you so much for your help!
