What's a guilty pleasure you indulge in at work?

Hi. People Manager here. I've been one for 12 years now and I encourage my team to not be "yes" people. At this time, it feels like my manager wants me and my team to be yes people for her. How do I deal with this? I've never been a yes person and I don't preach this to my reports. I don't know what to do. Help?

I’ve been working for a small investment firm for about a year and am having some issues with my boss. We have a weekly check-in but he’s ALWAYS 2-3 hours late, or skips the meeting altogether without warning. He also never replies to any of the emails I send. I already spoke with him about these issues, but things haven’t really changed. I really like the work I do but I’m starting to feel frustrated about the situation. Any advice? Or anyone else in a similar situation?

PEOPLE DO MAKE MISTAKES!! but My manager reacts very rudely everytime with me, And all seniors who are with him around 10+ years will assign tickets to me and they monitor me continuously.

I never had any conflicts with anyone, but i felt that they all connered me. I had a call with my director and senior director and explained about this on my last day

i never met my teammates in office since i joined and resigned in covid.
Did this happen coz i dint have much rappo with them?

If you don’t have a CD above you and you are doing the work, do you just send it off or do you ask other creatives for their take? Seems weird to just do work and present it without a gut check from somewhere.

I have a rogue 1st year analyst who is promising things to a client he has no business promising. He shouldn't even be talking to the client. This kid isn't gonna last long.

My manager is extremely indecisive and doesn't give clear direction on how she wants work. Any thoughts on dealing with this?

How do you deal with tech-illiterate colleagues? A partner and a couple associates at my firm are so out-of-touch with tech and they're always asking me for help. I want to be helpful, but I also have actual work to get done.

Just got out of the Army and transitioned to the business world. I have no clue how to dress. I’ve worn a uniform almost everyday for 7 years. Anyone have any advice for how to dress in the workplace?

How bad is it to leave an understaffed team right before fall busy for a job in a new city? Part of me doesn’t care at all b/c it’s a business decision, part feels like I’m totally screwing the team.

Any other gay male accountants in the DC area?

I’ve never dated another accountant but I guess I’m not opposed.

I feel like mentally accountants are on the same wavelength. I can always tell when I’m talking to a fellow accountant.

Already spoke with a partner who wanted something done this morning for him to review and then we discuss again. Sent it to him about 4 hours ago. Should take him half an hour to review max. At what point can I check in with him to see when we can catch up so I’m not waiting in the office all day?

I recently took a job with a top tier investment manager, which is a step up in title and responsibilities. I went through the typical “notice” conversations with my current employer. My boss, who was a significant supporter and mentor of me during my time at my current firm, told me that he doesn’t think my new firm is “long term” for me. Anyone ever get something like this before? It threw me off because I was hoping for his support, understanding that it’s tough for him temporarily

How do you tackle ignorant managers and favoritism in the team ?

I work with quite a few oldheads in my department, I’d like to know how to convince the higher-ups that we need to evolve our strategies to bring us in line with best current practices. However, I don’t want to act out of line or be disrespectful since this is my first role and I have less than a year here.

I’m starting to work in the IB division in NYC soon. Was wondering what’s the dress code in the office. Would Business casual be fine?

Got approached by a recruiter for the first time!!! Don’t know why I’ve got my panties in a bunch and I’m super excited haha

How soon did you tell your office you are pregnant? When is the best time?

I live in a more conservative city. Does anyone feel like how you perform at work is a reflection of the gay community to your peers? For example, if you’re a bad performer, it’s going to be reflective of the gay community as a whole and could make it harder for the next gay person? Is it weird to think that?

I’m moving to the DC area for a new job and wanted to see if anyone had suggestions on where to live in DC (neighborhoods and apartment buildings if possible). I’m thinking Adams Morgan or Logan circle, but open to suggestions. I’m a female in my late 20s, enjoy going out for a few drinks / dinner, working out, hiking etc. Budget is less than $2k per month and I’ll have to commute to Amazon in Crystal City ~3 days per week.

Looking for a good recruiter in central to puppet Florida...anyone have any one that they can recommend?

Hey all, I’ve recently joined EY consulting from another Big 4 and have noticed there’s no discipline (at least in my team) around codes and charging time. People either charge a standard 7 hrs or some will charge time spent on internal activities to their client code.

I was told that “the last person to charge their actual hours worked was promptly booted off the project”.
Just wondering:
1) Is this a general cultural point accross all Consulting teams? Will challengin this get me in trouble?

I work for a unicorn startup in alternative investments. The majority of my experience has been in marketing and developing brands and go to market strategies that resonate with tech buyers across retail banking, payments, corporate banking and investment banking for both large Fortune 100 companies and for startups. I do have a keen ability for distilling complexity into simple, human messaging. Looking to network and discover new startups and make a switch. Happy to return the favor.
