On a somewhat related note, who knew that CrossFit was actually a company?

I always thought it was more of a general philosophy of out of shape people in their 30s pushing their physical limits with no regard for safety or proper form so they can post videos of themselves dislocating both shoulders on Facebook.

It’s how he feels. I’m pretty sure he’s said similar things outside of ‘these times’. His insensitivity and lack of concern for POC is just being highlighted now because mainstream media cares about the anti racism movement

I’m not surprised. But glad he’s getting called out

As CEO, nobody internally could call him out without risking their job. He probably has a track record of inappropriate comments that employees suffered through.

This is totally surprising. He looks like a consummate professional. You can tell by the backwards camo hat

what a goofball

He didn’t resign just because media called him out. Brands were canceling partnerships. The existence of the company would have been in question. All the people who are resigning are NOT doing that because they developed awareness and needed some extra time to reflect on the effects of his comments. Its economically someone is tightening the noose. If you can do that you can control everything.

I need some legit feedback on what is it like to be a UXD at companies like Accenture?
They claim to do a lot of research oriented designs, as everyone. But is that really the case or it's like some other service based companies where the UX is almost vague, and happens mostly based on what the managers think to be good?

Does UX have any value or it's just drafting wireframes based on ideations by the managers and then UI designs?

I need help!!! Got an offer for Citi Private Bank at 110k for an Associate Banker (A1) position. Considering all the bulge brackets just announced 100k base for 1st year Analysts and that every year you go up 5k, that makes me feel like they are trying to lowball. I stupidly gave a salary range during the interview of 110-140k, cuz I was guessing, but I know JPM pays 130k base for the same role. How do I get myself to 130? First time negotiating, any advice appreciated!!!
