I hate when you ask senior associates a question regarding an assignment they’ve assigned and you receive attitude-reply to the email vaguely without even addressing the email (example: “just complete the assigned, don’t worry about that”). Especially when the question/issue being ask is an important part of the assignment. It almost feels like I’m a bother for asking even though the associate(when assigning) said “feel free to ask any questions you may have while working on the assigned tasks”

When a guy on your team comes loaded with snacks for the whole day but he is skinny AF. Screw you man..

Any thoughts on how do we deal with an incompetent boss who you dont look up to and have no trust that you would ever get credit for the work you would do for him/her? Given that changing the boss is not an option.

What’s the etiquette for contacting CD at a place you’d want to work? I don’t want it to just be asking for a job

How do handle a client after losing a hearing? What do you say or how do you explain it? I always explain the risks beforehand, but when I lose my clients seem shocked. Do you have a pep talk? Any words of wisdom you commonly share?

I have a direct report who is smart, passionate about her job and can be really innovative. However she carries this enormous weight of responsibility, for needing to do everything, do it right, make sure it's perfect, not trusting colleagues to help. It creates dread and panic and overwhelming workload and a terrible attitude for her and I am speaking with her this week to start to shift her mindset. Any tips in navigating how to let go of this heavy idea of "responsibility"?

I recently gave my two week notice and will be joining a good firm.
While having drinks with my colleagues today one of them says “you’re not a citizen. Stop taking American jobs.” I am an immigrant yes, but I have a graduate degree from one of the target schools and have worked my a*$ off to be where I am. I laughed it off then but now I regret letting it go that easily.

Hey guys,

I joined a small company last month for learning and enhancing my skills, but now I realize that it was wrong decision bcoz there is no proper management and they have given manager role to same person who is project lead, he doesn't speak well and has no people management skills, he tells me to come to office everyday even though there is hybrid envir, his behavior is also not good with fresher. It's kind of toxic environment for me bcoz I used 2 work in big mnc. What 2 do plz sugest

I was called into HR because a coworker overheard a conversation between me and another colleague taking about cable/streaming shows that we watched or recorded. I mentioned that I recorded a few true-crime shows. My colleague jokingly said, "I hope I'm not on your hit-list!". I replied, "Not anymore." HR pulled me in to say a coworker complained about me talking about hit-lists, and they were now scared. HR wouldn't say who complained, so do I have a right to ask about the resolution to this?

I'm not like other auditors. I'm a COOL AUDITOR :sends client coffee emoji in a professional email:

What are some creative ways that I can reward my team? They've been working really hard lately and I want to show my appreciation

Is it really that hard to say please and thank you instead of barking orders at me like a dog?

I know we are busy, I know this is my job, but dang, it is a lot more pleasant to work for the midlevels and seniors who say please and thank you and show a tiny amount of respect and appreciation.

I actively avoid working for midlevels and seniors who just bark at me, never ask, and never say thank you because it just shows they don’t care about being a half decent human.

I am tired of other team members not pulling their weight and having to deal with more things that on my plate. Any solution? I don’t want to snitch to the partners but am really getting sick of it

New manager said last week he wants to replace me with someone less experienced and presumably cheaper. Of course being very “nice”, allowing me to take my time looking for external opportunities. My performance has always been exceed expectations. He recently became my manager. Today, he reassigned one of my projects without discussing with me. Was so annoyed. Luckily I received an offer last week from a new company that values my experience. After what happened today, I just wanted to vent.

Leaving my current firm for big4. How do I put in my two week notices without causing chaos during busy season? I’m really close to the partners & managers that I work with. I don’t want to deal with counteroffers…

So... is everyone else's Resource Manager as much of a bitch as the one in my office?

My old boss introduced me to someone that can help me get a job I want how am I supposed to respond to his introduction email

Number of emails you send and receive in a day? It's nearly midnight, and I'm still getting them. Does my VP have a life? I seriously think he's taking his antisocial tendencies out on me.

Do we have to wear formals in Airbus ?

I'm having some trouble with my manager.

He's always asking me to work late, but when I do, he doesn't give me any credit for it.

I feel like he only cares about the results, not how much effort I put in. Should I say something to him?

I have an intern who's hygiene has slowly deteriorated over a few very stressful weeks at work. Should I leave them be, or gently remind them?

Can someone please share some companies with good data engineering projects and work life balance.

Now I have OL and serving notice, still I’m not happy and want to go for higher package and better offer.

Seems like, This is a never ending rat race, what do you guys do to relax? To have some quality time? I am somehow not able to enjoy my life and this hits me hard quite often.

Also it’s easy to see people earning double with same YOE. Do you guys feel the same?

Do you think firms take into account amounts associates have expensed for lunches, dinners, Ubers, office supplies etc when making decisions about layoffs?

I’m a 3rd year lit associate lateraling to a new firm in a few weeks. I just received an invitation to interview for a federal clerkship that would start in Aug. 2023. Would it be a bad look as far as changing jobs quickly if I were to get and do the clerkship a little over a year after starting my second job?

As a junior associate, how do you find the healthy balance to take initiative in matters as opposed to wasting billable time on something the client won’t pay for or the partner might not actually want?

I don’t know if this job is for me. I get so anxious about every little mistake or thing I missed and just want to cry every day. Every time I hear about a possible recession it just makes things worse. Do you eventually stop making mistakes? Stop caring? I can’t live like this 😭

Any insight on Akin bankruptcy, maybe in DC? Culture, office, hours, etc.? Thinking of relocating from NY. Thx!

Thoughts on capital markets group of Troutman Pepper? Remote position.

My firm has been pushing us to go back to the office since June, and every single day now they are sending pro-office propaganda. You can convince me there are benefits to being in the office, but good grief, let us work from home once or twice a week! Otherwise I’m out.

Just me or is M&A picking up (in August of all months…) 😭

While I do enjoy dressing more casually, does anyone else find that wearing a suit helped with the imposter syndrome?
