As a 6th year SM, it’s time to start talking to your leadership team about your path

likefunny

PWC1 you seem like you dont even want to ask the questions to see if there is a problem. Again only bc someone makes 150k year doesnt mean they are not being discriminated against. Only because someone is a woman doesnt mean the are being discriminated against. Only bc someone is a POC doesnt mean they are being discriminated against. But it's good to ask the questions and make sure our decisions are not guided by a bias. If you read the article youd knownthat the study suggests that there is nothing women do or dont do that should result in vastly different promotion experience. And yet here we are.

In all fairness, Kelly Grier is extremely attractive which I am sure helped her to get a position as the face of EY.

Really good article. I'm 1st year SM and I really want more communication from our leadership about efforts made to ensure that women are treated equally, given equal opportunities and what is being done to address gender bias. I've talked to several partners about this and recently all answers are we have no problem look at Kelly.

I love working at the bookstore and I'm proud to work with such a large group of people from different backgrounds. I'm really happy we're all here.

It's like I spend most of the day following one of my coworkers around and discreetly fixing what he works on. He's a great guy, very personable, but wow is it frustrating.

As a salesperson I generally take the approach of keeping my opinions to myself, if a customer asks me something directly I'm not going to lie to them I'll share what I believe in a respectful way. In other words I don't try to force my views on anyone, but lately our world seems to be more and more polarized on everything, and everyone is offered just by knowing you don't share the same views as they do they can't imagine their opinion isn't the only one. How are you handling these situations?

I moved from India to Canada 2yrs back. I am happy here, enjoying work, new place and new lifestyle. But, even after 2yrs of being in a new country I have no social life. Couldn't meet anyone new as it's a work from home situation. There are a few meetup groups but being an introvert that I am, it's hard to make friends this way. I prefer a more natural way of meeting people.. like at work or at an institute etc. Anybody has any suggestions?

I turned 30 yesterday and I just now realized something about this job. It may not apply to everyone, but it seems to click for me.

Each and every audit/assurance engagement I’m on will be successful if BOTH the client and engagement team (and their expectations) are properly managed.

I’ve stumbled my way to M1 without realizing this. I was always focused on the engagement team and relied on motivated clients to keep up their end of the bargain. Glad I’ve realized this heading into year two.
