I hate my job. Back to back to back deals this month. The client is so frustrating to work with. Also, other partners throwing a bunch of securities filings at me that need to be filed asap to just add to the pile. Wasn’t even hired as a securities attorney. A bunch of other partners giving me a bunch of BS one off assignments too that they need in a day or 2. I spend more time trying to jump between assignments than I am actually working. Screw this

Thank goodness for family en route home from client site. Stopped in then spent the night/quality time to avoid the rainy, highway mess in the dark. #familylove #fbfamlove

Here are some of the noob questions and answers that can keep them out of this bowl.
Q1. Why did X coin go up? Ans: don’t be lazy do your research. Go to the coin’s Reddit and go to the daily thread mostly you will find the news. Other crypt news sites Decrypt, CoinTelegraph. Q2: Is it still a good time to get in X coin? Ans: Again don’t be lazy. Read about the project, look at market cap, search Twitter Reddit , plot the charts and decide by yourself.

I am a project engineer in the heavy civil field with a company in the top 15-20 in the US. I’m about to hit my my 2 year mark with the company and have my eoy review next week. We average 50hours a week for most of the year and worked 60+hours through the summer and fall working essentially every Saturday. For base salary what would be a good raise for 2022 with inflation & work load?

HSBC project ending??

Anyone know any decent web developers that can quote for a project?

I work in international tax and plan on sticking around for a while. Sometimes I check out exit opportunities just to see what’s out there and noticed a lot of job postings requiring experience with ASC 740, which I don’t have any experience with. How can I get practical experience over with this section? Is it difficult to understand or is it something I can get a good grasp on through a project or two?

Hi my firm recently laid me off along with many because they had to close our project as they had no funds left.

Today was my last date.

I am a Front end engineer with 4 years of experience. Would want to get into a good product based firm for FrontEnd/Senior Frontend roles.

Any leads would be very useful. Thanks

Is there a point in reaching out to HR if I am being mentally tortured in the project. My project manager has cancelled my leaves which I planned 2 months in advance and approved for the person who is very close to him (Chaatu). Will the HR help me here or start giving me gyaan about company policies.

Hello guys, my colleague said he's facing issues with his client's Oracle database. He said it took his team 8 weeks to query the database. Database size is 3TB. Eventually, he wants to delete all data from the database and then shrink the database. The deletion will probably take forever to happen too. How can he optimize queries to the database? And how can he eventually delete all data fast and shrink the database successfully?

Saw today that my firm won a project with the church. Have any of you worked on an engagement with the church before? I’m wondering what it would be like...

I’d list the last agency that didn’t pay me but they actually closed up shortly after. Sadly the content I wrote is on their client’s site - but it’s not the client’s fault the agency didn’t pay me.

Does anyone else get a million emails from sketchy recruiters with “small business veteran owned” businesses looking to staff you on their contracts? How do I stop these? I say “public sector client” in my resume and linkedin when referring to federal clients and use industry descriptors for commercial clients (large financial services organization, commercial airline). I do not list my clearance anywhere, but every day I get an email or two from someone from a “veteran owned small business” government contractor. What makes them think I’d leave Deloitte to work at some fly by night small staff aug cash cow?

To anyone that made the switch from account management to project management, what made you pull the trigger?

Ok, so I have a couple of offers, one kind of lackluster, for the County. The other is for a credit union-I left credit unions a few years ago to join a FinTech supporting credit unions)
I was laid off last month and have had a flurry of interviews…this credit union offer is my favorite so far, I do have another offer I’m waiting for from another tech company which has a much higher salary range, but nothing is written in stone.
Should I counter? The offer is $95k for a project manager.

Have any of you taken "low bono" clients while working at a firm? I want to take on a low bono client or two but not sure who would get the money. This is a contract opportunity through a non profit so I'm assuming a 1099 will be issued. The per hour rate is significantly less than my billable rate. I would (obviously) like the money but my real objective is just getting experience/networking since I recently moved to a new state and don't have clients of my own.

Are the partners that you interview with during a lateral callback generally the ones you’ll end up working with? There were a few partners I would have liked to interview with but didn’t get to and I wonder if that means they weren’t interested or don’t have a need.

I have suggestions for associate retention. Has anyone seen the comments box or should I just put these directly into the trash?

Ever been asked to draft a frivolous/unsubstantiated motion? Both, myself (first year) and a mid-level associate have repeatedly raised our concerns to the partner who acknowledged the problems but directed us to continue with drafting and filing the motion anyway. Any thoughts on the best way proceed with caution?

I’m a first year and fucked up big time. The client doesn’t know about this but a senior associate was furious. I know it’s 100% my fault but no one above me actually reviewed my work bc everyone was so busy. But then I found out the senior gave a rant about how I fucked up to another colleague. When I apologized to him, he was really salty. Since then, my heart drops every time I see his email bc I’m too scared. He is usually pretty emotional and his instructions are vague, which doesn’t help.

Just say no. “Sorry, I’m at capacity”. “Sorry, I can’t get to this till next week”. Everyday I see people on here posting about how they’re going to quit with no new job, or how they’ll take a 50% paycut to go to in-house or small law (neither of which is a guaranty of WLB if you’re wondering). If you’re ready to leave anyway, why are you so bothered about what the partners will say if you just… don’t do it? Most firm’s official requirements are 2000. 2000/12 = 166 a month. (Cont’d)
