How bad will it look to employers if I quit this job that I've only been at for three weeks? This place is so toxic and the pay is laughable.

In my experience I leave off anything on my resume that is not over 6 months unless I am still at the company. Have you left the company or going to stick it out until a new offer comes? Most often the new company only verifies what you tell them on the application/resume

like

I agree - leave off anything that short. No need to include it and explaining it will only result in you making negative comments (however valid!) about your brief employer. Even if it's all true and you're very tactful about it, there's no way that will be a good look. Just pretend it never happened.

If that results in any appreciable gap between jobs (6 months or more), you say it was due to "personal matters" and you're eager to get back to work. That's ALL you need to say. Period. They'll assume it was anything from an illness to a death in the family and almost certainly won't ask for details (if they do, that's a bit inappropriate and I'd pass on the job, personally). The part about being eager to get back to work covers any questions as to whether the reason for the gap might be a longer term problem.

Keep it simple.

Some places where you interview, the interviewers may say or think, "Oh, yes. Here's another one. That company has problems. When are they going to wake-up?"

Hi, does anyone have any good resources for reviewing deal/fund documents for tax comments? I’m more junior and am often thrown documents to review with little guidance. Does anyone know if any good CLEs or other resources that could be helpful in helping me to better understand the big picture when reviewing documents like this?

To all the post-9/11 veterans, it’s a somber day that unites us all in the reason we fought. It’s easy to forget - especially with the younger generation having 9/11 be a history lesson rather than something they lived through. The waters became muddy with two wars and politicians, but you all stepped up and did your duty. Thank you all for your service, it’s an honor whether we crossed paths or not.

Need some advice. During May of 2021 an operations manager and an hourly Hr employee started a relationship while the ops manager was married. We had supervisors give us pictures of those two kissing at workFast forward they are now engaged and getting married. The HR worker does not work here anymore since July 2021. Is it too late to investigate the ops manager for misconduct ? The ops manager has worked here for 15 years and is super valuable, the operation literally can not run without him.
