I overheard that people resigning in my firm are being asked to leave early without serving notice period so my firm can avoid them paying quarterly variable bonuses

Whoever did the Brennan’s Bread TV doesn’t know the difference between a cheese toastie and cheese on toast and I wish it didn’t bother me but it does.

Any AWS TPMs that can shed some light on interview process? I have my first round of phone interview in a few days and would love to hear some tips, questions, experiences.. thanks in advance!

How do you use recognition (awards, articles, etc.) to help market yourself?

Botox recommendations anyone?

M/Boston. I’m 49 so apparently it looks like my last year in this bowl…

My Associate stint is ending next year, and I need to start thinking about my next move. What’s the right comp I should be targeting with 4 YoE (2 in VC, 2 in consulting), in unicorns vs PE vs CVC?

Current TC is roughly 175-300k (carry is complicated and variable) in MCOL.

We assess fraud risk factors at our clients, but are Big 4 auditors not the most susceptible to committing fraud? Pressure = Get work done better and faster than last year. Continued...

Have you ever joined a firm purely based on how many POC would be in your practice area?

Any account people successfully make the switch to freelance? How do you find the gigs?

So the feeling that you’re forgetting something important because you have so much on your plate…that never goes away right?

Anyone left Deloitte within one year and had to pay the Joining Bonus just because the date of resignation falls in that 1 Year period.

Deloitte M2 advisory salary in SF?

Hi All,

EPAM system - 12 LPA + 2 L joining bonus

Which one to choose pour your ideas?

Thoughts on Prosci or SHRM-SCP certification? Which would be considered more valuable or highly regarded? Currently focused on Change Management but have a HR background (industry experience / area of study in college).

New joiner. What should I get with my $250 wfh stipend? I already have standing desk, dual monitor, portable monitor, and good headset, not too sure what else I need, but it’s free money. Thanks.

Is it just me or have you also noticed that during the endless back to back zoom/teams meetings, people drift away and not take down action points?

Is there any good reason to take a 10+ minute call in a bathroom stall at work? Noticing people doing this as RTO ramps up and I really don’t understand why you wouldn’t go outside or at least in your car.

“You have a good looking face. But your body is absolute junk."

“The copy needs more modern slang young millennials can relate to. It isn’t jiggy enough right now."

I’m starting at VMLY&R on account side and was asked if I want a PC or Mac. Not trying to be the odd one out - what do most account folks have?

“Bad news, we’ve had to eliminate the position that we were supposed to finalize your promotion to. Good news, your current position is still available and the prestige of your current role is now increased”
Not the money, not the title, bonus or anything, but oh the prestige.

Heard from me:

“Oh, junior person, you have edits to the monthly activity report 3 days after your deadline to review the report, and after I sent it to the client? How lovely for you."

"Can you make it feel more like blueberries taste?" ACCOUNT TO CREATIVE

"Do you really think we can spend all that money?"

These were influencer managers not media

“Fuck it I’m going to PDF this bitch"

HR: I still didn’t get approval from finance on the freelance req. not answering email.
Me: FL’r already in the building. you sit in next office can you just talk to them?
HR: ok. I guess.

“We had complimenting genitalia.”

Why are people not good at ending zoom calls? I feel like I’m always the person who throws in the closing statement (I.e, ok well sounds good is that all? Have a nice day! This was helpful thanks Karyn..looks like we’re at top of the hour already) 🤦🏻‍♀️

Today someone quit and just straight up walked out of the office. Like something you'd see in a movie. My jaw is still open. You ever seen this happen?

"There's no whining in baseball!", said very seriously and earnestly ..... to the office dog.

What type of background check do HF/PE/VC forms so these days? Employment, education and felonies are a given (I think) but is fingerprinting and drug testing still in the mix? How about credit score?

I give the clients gold, but they decide instead, they want me to paint it with sh*t.

OH: (RE: required meeting attendance)

"Ok, fine. I will say yes now but fair warning I may fake my own death beforehand."

“If I have COVID, I won’t tell anyone” why oh why? 🤔😫
