EY Tax Chat... If I am understanding this correctly, the firm got rid of the $75 reimbursement to buy a TurboTax and replaced it with a $150 discount on an EY service that starts at $249? Start -$100

Advice for studying for CISA? I’ve purchased the CRM, QAE, and Hemang Doshi’s book. So far I’m having trouble reading through the CRM because it’s so detailed that everything seems important and difficult to retain. I’m an incoming new hire so I think I should read the book even though I know people who have passed with only QAE (they were previous b4 interns)

Does anyone know a good immigration lawyer here in the Tristate area? The immigration need required is to help with the personal GC process. I have talked to one lawyer, and she quoted 4K + costs of applications (approx 1.5k). Do you think that’s fine/too much etc.?

Question: Girl friends parents finally came over for a ristha. Everything went great or so I thought but now she wants to time to think about moving forward. The pain point she brought up is that we are in different states and she is feeling pressed. Although in that time she has started communicating less and I literally had to beg her to get on face time. My gut says she wants to end it but unsure. Any advice ? It's been 2 weeks since this event

I am a senior accountant with a masters and CPA credential and 3 years experience. A colleague was just promoted to senior with no credentials and 10k higher salary. My boss said he can match salary in 3 months when we have our annual review cycle. I don’t think I should have to wait. Also I said I should absolutely be paid higher than peer given my credentials. How much more though??? Also should I push to have it matched now?

Anyone transition from tech implementations to tech sales? How? And how did your comp change?

So, you’ve reached the stage of your career where you care more about cashing a fat paycheck than making “creative ads”. You’d rather have the resources and free time to fulfill your creative itch outside of work than try to sell the next big idea to an 28 year old marketing manager with an annual budget of 150k. How do you make the absolute most money as a copywriter while still working a 9-5? Asking for... a... friend?

Which offer is better?
€100K per year in Netherlands (with 30% ruling) OR
45000 AED / month in Dubai?

My priorities: Long term stay, better education , quality life, location with better security, law n order and less hussels.

Angel investors invest at the most risky time & take exit at the most lucrative time

That’s why they’re called angels, but why is it VC with the GOD complex.

Do people actually spend all or almost all of their $25 meal allowance if they work late? Just curious since a couple of other staff seem to be very careful about spending too much.

How is the work situation of a senior manager with the great shortage, lot of people quitting audit? What are people seeing out there at other firms on their engagements?

Brand new (like, just-had-a-kid new) mom here. Life seems manageable with the baby sleeping much of the time. It gets worse from here doesn’t it? I’m scared 😱😱😱

Books on human psychology that have affected you. I'll start: influence, sales Bible, on killing.

Do you all ever give yourself new job resolutions (like new year resolutions) when you start a new job?

What do you think some good ones would be? Like better file organization, set boundaries, etc.

What's the best way to gain visibility by those holding 3-4 positions higher than you? I like learning from them and growing mentorships but can't break the AE-level wall with my responsibilities. Being remote also makes it harder to interact.

I'm on the client/business side but would love to hear anyone's thoughts.

Thoughts on Publicis? — Specifically their UX department.

Agency I freelance for just gave me the ultimatum. I’d make $75K less to go full-time, and even that they weren’t sure they could get finance to sign off.

Why haven’t salaries gone up at all?

If you spend the day writing stuff on linked in, how do you get shit done at work?

When you email a recruiter, what do you put in the email (besides your portfolio link)?

Just got a job offer at an agency I’m really excited about, but it’d be a complete lateral move. Same position and same amount of pay now. Is it worth it? Or should I wait until I’m able to move someplace with a pay increase or title move? I’m pretty unhappy right now at my current agency and job. But was really hoping for an increase somewhere. Thoughts?

Anyone know the best way to approach David Miami agency?

One thing they don't prepare you for when you're getting into advertising is the extent to which being a cheerleader propels you. I'm not a misanthrope, but I'm definitely not naturally wired for cheerleading and it for sure has had an adverse impact on my career.

i really can’t believe some people/companies think that having their office back open 5 days a week, full capacity starting this summer is a good idea. just because people will be getting vaccinated doesn’t mean the virus will go away overnight. capitalism really wants people to suffer.

Book recommendations for copywriting/advertising? Thank you! 🙏

Anybody go from agency-side to working at an ad tech company? What’s it like?

Changing my title to Copingwriter

WKNY— How are you all feeling in the new year? Travel/leisure clients doing ok? Any new business on the horizon?

How do you keep yourself motivated when you’re so unhappy at your company and it’s affecting your physical, mental, and emotional health? I cannot do this anymore. I’m so miserable.

How is Coors SuperBowl not similar to the XBOX Dreamscape campaign? Still trying to wrap my head around while staying awake.
