A CD of my old agency doesn’t make cool stuff (he’s a ‘keeping shitty clients happy with mediocre work’ guy) but behaves on social media like he’s the man. He takes credit for the agency’s best work, or at least makes it look like he contributed.

No one in his team is happy and a lot of people burn out, but on social, he talks about work life balance as if he is one of the good guys.

It bothers me. He’s presenting himself as a great guy on social while reality is something else. 😡

I would like to transfer my career to Healthcare Data Analytics. I’m gaining my data analytics certification by the ending of November. I’ve also worked and still currently working for great healthcare company’s. I also have lots of great healthcare data experience. My only concern is no degree.

My company cut staff to 4 days/wk to save funds. I was getting requests from coworkers for docs needed urgently on our day off (fridays). I would oblige them. But then, I learned that those same coworkers had been put back to 5 days because they were deemed “essential“. I felt foolish and decided to stop working on fridays. One EVP (not the GC) in particular has been aggressively texting/calling me on fridays. How Do I tactfully respond? My out-of-office email is not enough of a hint...

Is negotiating offers the norm now? I’ve been at my company awhile and at the time I was hired they said they don’t do negotiations, take it or leave it and they’d offer the next person.
