You don’t, you leave. But know that you can tell a better story to sell yourself to a willing buyer that will appreciate your skills.

Since you’re 2nd year analyst, that changes the narrative. Advice is don’t get on that entitlement bandwagon like many 1-3 yoes. Even if you jumped ship, you don’t have any craft and experiences to offer yet, and you’ll just rotate through like a worker bee.

I didn’t have a competing offer but I told them that I was comfortable staying at my current job. However, I would leave for $XYZ and a signing bonus of $ABC.

Offer for 40% increase in base to move from Accenture to Deloitte S&A. Love my team and projects at ACN and all the negativity around Deloitte has me cautious about making the jump. Does the $$ outweigh the negative experiences felt at D?

How to compensate for long term unemployment? After getting let go from McK earlier this year, I've been unemployed for close to 6 months and explaining it to prospective employers is awkward and uncomfortable. Any advice on how to navigate this?

It’s a remote week and I couldn’t sleep so I got up at 5 and worked on my deliverables. It’s now 10AM and I have finished all my work I had slated for today. What should I do?

How do folks think Coronavirus will affect remote work in the long run? Will companies be more open to it/push for it? Will demand for remote options increase a lot? Will it have little effect?

I am not American so I don’t understand how all this can happen. But question for the white folks. How do you guys feel when these black murders occur? Do you feel like you can’t do anything about it? Kinda like how you’d feel if you saw a world vision poster of a starving kid in say, africa? What do you think you can do or do you feel powerless just as the black people feel?

My colleague keeps drawing naked women on his notepad. The client has seen it before so it might not be the best idea. But he seems to really relax while doing it. And he’s talented. What to do?
