Both my wife and I work for FAANG companies. As the stock has recently gone through the roof I was wondering if we should try to protect the gains (covered call/put options).

Question on on labor laws in the US:

Received an offer from Amazon but I'm concerned about negotiating hard and ending up with an offer that's on the higher end of the pay band when compared to the rest of the (future) team. My concern is during an economic downturn, it would be easier to let me go if the team needs to be downsized. This would be because I would have the least experience on the team & more expensive to retain from a cost perspective.

My concerns valid? #amazon #aws #faang

Anyone have an idea of a salary range for a Senior Executive Recruiter role for a consulting/recruiting start up?

I recently found out that my current “position” was making over 3k more than I do in 2014, 16k more in 2019 based on contracts that I accidentally found…. I now do two double the work as I am the only one fully trained to do so. How can I bring this up and demand a raise?

Hi all,
I am currently working in a leading architecture and design firm for almost a year now. I have 3 years of experience. When I started in this firm I was told that they will reconsider my position in sometime. I recently asked HR regarding salary review, but he denied and said they are not considering anymore salary this year and next salary considerations would be in Q1 of next year(6 more months). I know I’m being underpaid. What should do or how should I negotiate?
Please advise.

Hello fishes

Can one switch while posted onsite on GCP ?

I wish social media apps had a time delay reaction feature where you could like a post or send a friend request late at night, and then those actions actually process at like 10:00 the next morning, so you didn't look like a creep who was up at 3:00 in the morning.

Does your company still plan different social events for everyone to try and boost company culture? It kind of seems like mine gave up after the pandemic. I feel so disconnected from the company and from my team.

HATE this. Sigh.

Hi all. I’m looking for advice on how to transition out of my Econ consulting role. I’m afraid that I’m stuck here - over 10 years in antitrust litigation/regulatory economic consulting. I have done a little bit of everything: quantitative and qualitative analysis, coding in SAS/Stata/SQL and recently taught myself some Python, client relationships, project management, & managing small teams of analysts. I initially thought I could get into data science but might not be technical enough for it.

Wanting to exit within a few months and am about to be asked put on a large project being the PM ( with little experience) I have great utilization not sure if I should wait for another project with less responsibility so I can also focus on interviewing anyone in this boat

Was at another consulting firm for 2 years, got promoted, then coming to BCG got downleveled to Senior Associate. Do I need a promotion at BCG as well to get solid exit ops, or will 4+ years of work experience in consulting and one promotion be enough to get good exits?
