Hey all,
I am looking for some guidance. I am currently an RN and just feel like the healthcare system is falling apart. I currently work in home health and am thinking about what my next job choice should be, whether in nursing or something outside of healthcare. I’m feeling so unfulfilled in work and just burnt out. It could be I just need to step away from direct patient care and do something more behind the scenes. Anyone else having these thoughts or have any guidance? I appreciate the help

Lately this job has been draining and anxiety on 10. Definitely time to look elsewhere

GP Stakes and PE secondaries: how good is the medium/long term outlook for the market and would a niche specialty in these areas be very limiting for my career?

What do you wish design students would learn in school to ease the transition into needs of business? I have seen an increasing need for more education/inclusion/overlap into other areas of business that depend on design teams so they understand what goes into the process. As well as design teams into the other business teams. This would alleviate tensions and improve quality product delivery due to the major miscommunications that occur so frequently.

The scariest day of my life was the day I woke up in the middle of the night in my loft apartment with someone sitting at the foot of my bed and another one downstairs pacing back and fourth. For the first 2 minutes I was paralyzed with fear. I could not move. I still have nightmares about it. Please lock your doors.

Hey everyone! I work as a PM at a startup and we have a huge marketing campaign launching and need to get all these deliverables organized. Does anyone have a tool they use or a template? I have a Gantt chart going but was wondering if anyone has something else they like to use.

Kellogg MMM vs Sloan? Still waiting to hear back on HKS which would be a concurrent degree with Sloan. Looking to go into VC, potentially doing MBB or design consulting in the short-term.

I joined a corporate firm as a multi year experienced paralegal. It seems however that I am not necessarily welcome by other paralegals in the Dept., a few negative comments to partners about me. Obtaining assignments feels much like a popularity contest. Any advice on overcoming the negative vibes? My fear is that there is a negative reflection about me and the managing partner doesn't seem open to me, even though I haven't had the opportunity to work for him or the others yet.

Your project teams will make or break your consulting career

Does anyone else find it ridiculous that firms require a minimum daily time entry? For example, my firm requires us to bill 6 hours a day, whether or not it’s billable work, we have to have a minimum of 6.0 in our time entry system every day or we get flagged. If we’re on vacation we have to pre-bill 6.0 a day. Why the hell do firms do this???

Q to Partners: Can any partner see any associate’s hours? Asking bc one partner in the same office but different practice group knew that I was underwater (without saying that they heard from xyz)

How can I see the AM law list without paying for a subscription?

I feel so many of my big law co-workers purchase homes $1M+ homes as senior associates but I always struggle to believe that I will be able to do the same. I started saving aggressively this year as a midlevel but still feel so far away to be able to comfortably afford. Additionally, I always have a fear of job loss due to my own parents losing their jobs in 2008 and essentially growing up with no resources.

What are other people’s experiences?

Hi everyone, my firm (V100) is hiring a midlevel L&E associate for its SF office. Pay is market and billable hours requirement 2000. Please dm me if you’re interested.

I have this partner who doesn’t enjoy working with me because I do below avg work for her but she has little choice of foot soldiers. I do below avg work for her because she consistently gives me little time to do huge tasks (and usually at odd hours) and doesn’t involve me in what finally goes to the client (and I have no visibility on the client’s expectations, response, feedback, expected timeline). How do we (mainly I) get out of this painful cycle?

When’s the ideal time to go in house? I’m a sixth year in L&E. I really like my firm but I’m not sure I want to litigate and bill hours for 30 more years. Should I start looking in the next year or two, or wait until I have more experience?

I've only been in biglaw for a year, but have been practicing for seven years so far. I used to be a state regulator for this practice area and generally enjoy working at a private firm. A partner at a boutique firm that I'm friends with has called me every few months to check-in and see how I'm doing. During our last call he essentially offered a job after I get another year of experience in private practice. Five year track to partnership. No billable hours.

Trying to lateral and the conflicts clearance process could not be more frustrating. I'm at the point where I'm becoming resentful and annoyed at my new firm and I haven't even started. Is this indicative of my future experience there or completely unrelated?

Keepin’ going: What are your go tos for when you hit that wall during the day and just want to crash and sleep? (Shorter winter days did not help!)

Working fairly regularly with the AGC of an issuer client (which has been on an endless cap markets deal frenzy during Covid). He’s become strangely familiar on email, calling me bud, sailor (?), kiddo, bro, etc. It’s never felt condescending / inappropriate—he’s actually pretty great to work with. But recently he started using “love” in awk ways, like “love you for turning this doc around so quickly.” It’s almost funny, but should I maybe be telling someone like the partner on the deal?
