What must do cities would you recommend for a 2-week vacation in Italy? Assuming 3 days a city (Rome might be 4), what places are a must do? Thanks in advance

Travel and TTC combo haven’t worked. After 6 months, the only offer I got included 4 weeks paid and FLMA only after 1 year. So 1) go and risk laughable benefits or 2) stay but risk TTC. So shitty 😭

Hi all,
I was made aware that I could work for consulting companies under a personal LLC and increase the pay received. My understanding is this is because I would have to pay my own insurance, benefits etc. Can anyone provide any additional details or literature on this?

Recent law grad here, looking for a firm job. Can others share what I should be looking for in a compensation package nowadays? What's typical and what's not?

When is it either allowed or seen as OK to start using FTO? I recently started here and while I’m not looking to slack off and take time off, I just want to know how it works.

I’m looking to transition from an academic medical center to pharma or a biotech. I have about 8 years of clinical research experience overall — 7 years combined as a CRC (CRC I, CRC II, and senior CRC) and 1 year as a PM. I’m also recently ACRP-CP certified.

I’ve worked with many different industry-sponsors and CROs throughout the years, but many jobs I am applying to require experience at a biotech/CRO/pharma company. Would really appreciate any advice or referrals. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone! I am working with my HR to improve our maternity/paternity leave policy. Currently I only get 2 weeks fully paid and then an additional 8-12 weeks at 60% pay (short term disability). I need some examples of companies with less than 100 employees and what your maternity/paternity policy is. Please include company name! Thanks!!!

Now that the holiday season has arrived, what's on the secret wish list for Black professionals in the accounting world?

Anyone find a reasonable flight around Thanksgiving? I’m looking for somewhere to go over the holiday for 5 nights or so.

Anyone else feel guilty for finding this so hard? I don’t have children or sick relatives and I still have a job. I know there’s LOTS to be thankful for. But I’m not ok. I feel claustrophobic. I feel drained at 7pm each day. Never worked so intensely and so alone. There’s no line between work life and home life. Everything my boyfriend does annoys me. My apartment is a mess. I can’t sleep. Don’t have time to exercise. I know this is stress but feel like I shouldn’t speak up
