I created this group because: there are both black and white people afraid to say what they really think. I see this as a problem because unless we can say what we truly feel we can’t identify differences and come to genuine solutions.

Suggested Format is we will deal with 1 question or topic per week. The question will be from participants. I will try to simply be a host, moderator and translator. We will lay out some ground rules to make it safe for all. I will enforce these.

I received a mail from IBM to login in Candidate portal with your email id to see the offer letter. When I am trying to login it's giving error as invalid username.

Is an MBA really worth it?

What does an online MBA look like in terms of class time, work load, realistic time to complete etc?

Do you think culinary school is worth it? I've been a waiter for a year but really want to be a chef. The people I work with say to just start in the kitchen and work my way up but I think culinary school might get me where I want to be faster. The cost is pretty insane though. Any advice?

Thoughts on thoughts on thoughts on MBA?

FYI Amex offer for Allen Edmonds. Spend $300 get $90

Damnn, este bowl está re muerto 🥲

Does anyone know about viatris/mylan banglore. How good are they are pay and how is wlb

Hi Amex peeps, how much time does it usually take to declare the results of 1st round of interview for lateral hires?

Thanks in advance 😊

People with One Medical,

Is it really worth the $200 ? If so, why ?

How come in TV shows there are different salaries for different actors? And it's even worse when you bring numbers in. Per episode, there have been cases where some people make twice as much as others.

Anyone got interesting story or insight on Dalberg? How do they work, the culture, support infrastructure, career.. anything.. thanks! :)

I never thought I would like a documentary about sports so much and even less one made by ESPN. I'm talking about "The Last Dance". This series shows you the success story of the superstar Michale Jordan and it's extremely exquisite, I recommend it. Who has seen it?

How much does a manager make in tech consulting analytics side?

Anyone apply for marriage based green card on your own (without a lawyer/law firm)? How did it go? Would you recommend doing it yourself to others?

I am an AM in Assurance (moved from audit 6m ago) and I am looking for an opportunity- currently i need money but WLB is also a very important factor! I love challenging and non monotonous work. Any suggestions?

Anyone analyze QoEs before? Need to come up with questions for due diligence call and looking for some guidance

Any thoughts on living in the area around Madison and Morgan? Looking at an apartment there. That area seems pretty cool and not far from the heart of Fulton. Wanted to get other peoples opinions before moving forward with this place

Anyone else keeping an eye on the hearings and thinking that if this would have been Obama instead of Trump, they would have already had him locked up?

From the Moderator:

How do we feel about Joe Biden:

(A) Declaring before hand that his VP would be a woman
(B) Selecting a black woman

Should organizations take similar action? For example declaring that their next CEO will be a woman.


All views welcome

From the Moderator: I would like to compile a list of questions/issues for this group to discuss... please suggest questions. I will hold them in a list and release them one per week. So The first question for the group is... what questions do you suggest this “safe zone” for all people deal with? GO!

From the Moderator:

Week 3: August 2 to August 9

Question of the week

Pretend You’re an NBA player...

(A) Would you stand for the national anthem or kneel?
(B) How would you feel about your other players standing or kneeling?

As a reminder our goal on this bowl is to fully understand other people’s POV and to share your POV effectively so it’s fully understood. So that empathy can happen...not necessarily to change someone else’s mind. This may or may not happen.

Purpose of this group:

- A Place for everyone (black,white,other POC) to share agreeing AND disagreeing views on racial topics

- Format will be one topic each week. Please reply to this pinned post with topic suggestions.

- Moderator will put up topic weekly and be watching to promote respectful and engaging conversations including ensuring popular and unpopular opinions are welcomed.

JOIN US! converse with us, agree and disagree with us, learn with us... your voice is needed.

Is it culturally racist to be against cultural artifacts that are counter to your values? For example glorification of murder in outlaw southern rock, heavy metal, or some hip hop.

From the Moderator

Week 2: Jul 26 to Aug 2

1. Do you personally believe there is a systemic racism problem?

2a. If yes, share with others why you believe so

2b. If no, share why you believe so.

Question was posed by a member of the group.

All remember that the goal of this group:
- is to help others understand YOU
- to help YOU understand OTHERS.
- our highest goal is full understanding of the each other leading to empathy

It’s unlikely that you would change another’s mind via this forum

From the moderator, for discussion.

Should white males be concerned that current focus on diversity will lead to negative results

If Yes, why and under what conditions
If No, why not?

I’m convinced that the reason some of these firms are so prestigious is because they have intentionally exclusionary recruitment practices. I used to believe that you had to already be rich to get hired at MBB. Now being on the other side of the recruitment process , I really do feel that it rings true. I hate the way we evaluate candidates and decide on who is “high priority” during coffee chats.
