I need help managing a contract transition. I just started working as project manager owning a large system and help manage a team of developers contracted by a different company. Now their contract is ending and I’ve been asked to represent the gov’t as a contractor and make sure the transition goes well. I’ve never been in this position…usually I’m either transitioning in or out. The outgoing isn’t very organized with their knowledge transfer and documentation and want to help them but how?

Quick vent, would love input: I’m an attorney working for a state-wide nonprofit. I’ve been crushing it this year and have been very successful in obtaining favorable divorce and custody orders. An OC (who is generally a terrible attny) just filed a bar complaint b/c I requested attorney fees, arguing they shouldn’t be allowed b/c I work for a nonprofit. The fee request is warranted & allowable. My manager thinks it’s a compliment, but I’m anxious. Thoughts?

Hi folks! I’m in the early stages (discovery + research) of a B2C oncology focused health tech startup. I’m passionate about this space as this has hit home, and I’ve encountered the glaring pain points cancer patients and caregivers endure.

Hello fellow fishes and sharks! I am putting this message on behalf of my wife. Wanted to know, what would be a better role to switch to for a Manual tester with YOE :8 yrs in p&c domain. She has been stuck with one project and one firm still stuck at a CTC of 5.6lpa and associate role although her performance rating has been in the top 2 tiers.

US immigration related question: My wife’s prior employer filed in EB2 and she got a i140, but later the employer revoked it after she moved to a new company. The new company started the process all over again and she got her i140 approved, but we realized they filed it in EB3!! Her priority date is current in EB2. Has anyone been in this situation? She was really hoping to file for i485. Is there anyway this can be remediated?

Can anyone give me their honest opinion on working at Eli Lilly, the Indy site? I have a few coworkers that have worked there in the past but no one recently. I’m currently being recruited pretty seriously for a in-vivo technician position in the auto-immune team, but I already have a job lined up at Envigo as a small animal sx tech. Salaries would be comparable (Lilly would most likely be a little more with bonuses), but if the culture sucks, I’d hate to burn a bridge with Envigo.
