I inherited a role and found emails from my predecessor having a breakdown in their draft folder. They never sent them but they're still there. I'm reading someone's private work crisis from three years ago. Should I delete them or is that evidence of something?

Before deleting the documents, you should reach out to the person and see if they want them or not. The documents might be important to them and they may want them or not.

I’d agree with that. If it’s possible to reach them, a quick check-in feels respectful. If not, I’d probably leave them untouched or flag it with HR/IT rather than deleting, those drafts were never meant to be read, let alone erased.

Hi folks, my base location as per EY GDS offer letter is Noida but I want it to be Gurgaon as my hometown is in Jaipur and Gurgaon is more convenient for me.. I sent email to my senior manager and got response that you can use flexibility and work in any Gds office in India. However, I feel that in case my base location is not being changed, I should shift to Noida rather than Gurgaon as there might be any formalities or facilities which we need to avail in our base location only.. Any thoughts?

Hey guys, need some advice. I was fortunate enough to get the Consortium fellowship at Ross but am also stuck on the CBS waitlist and am still planning to apply to Wharton in R3.

For context, I want to get into product management at FAANG/fintech with pursuing MBB as a plan B. Thanks in advance!
