I just had to turn off my laptop and walk away for the night because I am on the verge/already breaking down a bit. I know the rest of my team had to work later (I peaked on slack) and i feel super guilty and embarrased about not helping. This is the first time I've gotten to a point like this and although I know mentally I needed to do it, I can't stop reading messages from coworkers as stabs at me for ditching.

After two years of this I don't care about "better exit ops". I'll take WLB and a decent salary for my freedom back. After 10/15 I'm applying to every industry tax accountant/analysts job I see

Hi, I’m looking to switch into marketing (entry level), as consulting is not aligned with my skill set/passions. Does anyone know of any ad agencies in LA that have good work-life balance, good pay, PTO, great culture, training? Your help means more than you know!!! Looking to do informational interviews and try to network my way in, as I feel the barrier to entry was much harder than anticipated. Anything helps, thank you so much!

Any information on the culture / WLB of Tampa law firms? Particularly firms in the 170k+ starting pay range, litigation specifically.

I'm not good at my tech stack. I've somehow managed to perform all my tasks without any escalation/blunders but that also by some help/googling.
I also managed to switch from an Indian mnc to a reputed company and now also somehow cleared a FAANG interview,but i know I'm not much knowledgeable in my tech .

I often fail at some interviews badly.
Not sure till when I'll be able to carry forward by this and the hard wlb at FAANG companies is giving me a fear.

Hello, I have accepted an offer at a competitor company and sent in my resignation letter. My start date is 5 weeks from now so I put in my end date 4 weeks from date letter was signed. The manager said I had to leave the job in 2 days and the company can only play 2 weeks of work. Is it normal how they do that?

Anyone ever heard of Credigy?

Would you rather have an overwhelming amount of work on your plate or barely any work at all? I’ve experienced both and I can honestly say that I’d rather have an overwhelming amount of work. If it seems like no one needs my help on anything, I just end up feeling self-conscious about the quality of my work and my reputation as a professional.

Which of the FAANG companies have a better Work life balance and culture? Unhappy SM here who needs to switch cuz of the toxic work culture at D!

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.

I'm holding an offer from MakeMyTrip and another offer from OlaElectric. Ninjacart is willing to make me an offer. But they're saying that they'd discuss the offer only after the other company that I'm interviewing with has come up with an offer first. There's been a delay from HRs of the companies in a similar way. How do I urge them to send me the offer letter without sounding pushy? I had reached out to some of the HRs myself. Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?

4th week on the new job. Out of the last 10 biz days, I’ve come into the office at 8:30 and left at 11:30p seven times. There’s no order/structure and 5 accounts for every 1 creative. How do I escape?

I haven’t been feeling confident in my work and it’s stressing me the fuck out. How do you deal with this?

I’ve doing this for a good number of years. I think I depleted almost completely my interest in this business. When I’m out of the office or during the weekends I get into a “leave me alone state” and don’t want to know anything about the office. I actually just want to get in the agency, do the best I can within the time I have available, and get out. In a business where “the most committed wins” this is not an ideal mindset, but I’m done. Anyone else experiencing something similar?

Two weeks ago I attended an interview in person and they promised to let me know whether or not I’d be hired for the position. Later, I learned through LinkedIn that a friend of mine got the job. The agency never contacted me to let me know anything. Should I be mad?

My last therapist keeps coming up in my mind. I left her when I moved to a new area before COVID dug in and frankly it felt like leaving a girlfriend. She also disclosed in the final session that she was a member of AA and knew several of the people I occasionally discussed from the rooms. Her knowledge of the program certainly built trust with me early on, but it has been two years. I discussed it with my current therapist but she’s still in there. Any advice?

My fear of being ghosted has become a self fulfilling prophecy. Everytime I like someone, I have panic attacks when I don't hear from them for a few days. How do I stop this cycle?
