I hired a new employee in December to a role requiring knowledge of data analysis and MS tools which were confirmed that she is proficient in as per the interview. Through on job meetings, it became obvious that she lied and that this led to her performs lower than expected. She also lies and blames her mistakes on others. I raised this to HR and was asked to document these behaviors. I have seen enough to terminate her but I have not done this before. How do managers find that courage?

How do you feel about leaving a company shortly after joining?

I've been told by people to not be loyal to companies & I've seen posts in forums where people have talked about leaving workplace 1, at workplace 2 for like 3 weeks, and already interviewing for workplace 3 (and the recruiter for workplace 3 doesn't even know that the person has left workplace 1). That feels a little disingenuous and...bad etiquette maybe? What do you think?

KPMG Transformation Delivery interview coming up! Need advice ! Hi. Currently a Sr. Tech Risk Consultant at EY. I have mostly done IT Audit, SOC, and 2-3 channel 2 consulting work assignments. and I am about to have my first interview with KPMG from their Transformation Delivery practice. The team is project, program and portfolio management. How’s the work? Is it better than IT audit? If its PMO related then is it IT/Technical prog mgmt? Any Data analytics involved?I have technical skills too

I was given a promotion 6mos ago & told that the position was a lateral move & a raise would be given at my 6 month mark. Throughout my time at time at this company I’ve realized that they call people in to give their raise on the exact date of milestones (i.e: 6 mos, 1yr, & so on). It’s now been one week since my 6 months in this new position. I’d like to reach out to my boss and set up a meeting to review my work & discuss a raise. Should I wait a bit longer or should I set this up now?
