I hate consulting. The majority of consulting is a mix of coming up with bs using business doublespeak, office politics, building slides, boasting about the experience you claim you have, and being “proactive” on email to let people think you’re busy doing all these great things when it’s not.

Just 6 more months until I can resign and not pay back the sign on bonus 👏🏻👏🏻

I have over 12 years in B2B sales/sales management experience along with a graduate degree. I am wanting to shift gears and I am at a point where I can invest time in myself to learn through practical experience. The new industry I am wanting to pursue is real estate investment. I have read all the books but want some hands on experience on the property management side. How could I best leverage my skills for a role in this, and what should my expectations be for negotiation in compensation?

Hello. I recently accepted a position as Assistant Nurse Manager at a busy Cancer Center in Brooklyn. I have leadership roles such as charge nurse over the 8 years I’ve been an RN so Ive never had an official management role. I have my BSN and OCN. The AVP agreed to match my current salary which is 6 figures because I refused to accept the salary he was offering for $5K less. Did I accept an unfair offer or should I expect that because of my lack of experience in management? Thanks

Hi Fishes,

I got email from LTI "Thank you for applying to LTIMindtree and going through our complete selection process" on 27 Sept but after 1 week I follow up on offer letter she said my approval got rejected due high expectation (35% hike ).

I just wanted to hop on here and tell my story of what just happened to me these past 3 months. I returned to my job from maternity leave and was handed a ‘promotion’ and a lot more responsibility. The only downside was the numbers. I wanted to know what the pay increase was right off the bat and I got the run around of ‘we’re just happy to have you back’. Sorry, but that isn’t good enough for me. (Continued in comments)
