I think my boss is an utter and complete noob, he has no technical background and only works for an hour , 30 min in morning when he tells everyone what to do and 30 min at night when he takes notes and sends to the team lead.
I need to be in his good books but often lose my temper and cut him off, how can I be more polite to him so that he doesn’t spoil my review ?

Who are farewell emails typically addressed to at your company? And do you ever get to personally communicate this to your client?

Folks at my 500 person firm send them company wide, which feels a bit strange to me given they've never met all of us. What's the best practice at larger firms?

Am I allowed to date someone from the client?

need advice.

I have been working in an interim role as a portfolio manager. I was promised that the role would be mine. However, after doing the job for 2 months, I have been advised that we might not get the funding for the role and I might not get the raise and the title but my responsibilities will be the same.

Its a political minefield.

How should I back out elegantly that I need to be compensated fairly and competitively from this mess without burning any bridges

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time

I'm done getting paid 1/3 of the class teacher pay and expected to teach the lessons. The other Paras in the class seem to think this is normal. I certainly don't get the same respect as the teacher. Am I alone here?

Has anyone else had a mentor (assigned to them by the Company) who seemed to have it out for you? I mean downright sabotage to make you look bad left and right. I didn’t realize it at first. She was fake friendly, but she was discrete too. Some of the executives thought she was amazing, but I had to clean up her work all the time. She wasn’t above me either on the chain of command. Later I found out she had tried for the exec assistant role and they didn’t choose her, they wanted me instead.

Hi everyone! I’m a Product Designer currently in their first design position at a start-up company. I haven’t done this before as this is my first job, but as of lately I’ve been feeling really unmotivated and stagnant in my role. I’ve been working in the same role for 1 year and 6 months now. I want to get promoted and earn a higher wage, but I feel really intimidated and normally end up downplaying myself and asking for less in conversations. Any advice around how I can talk to my boss?

Favorite books on leadership styles and mindset training?

I hope everyone at EY will book vacation in November/December to use the accrued hours they EARNED. This PTO thing really is a shame, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the other B4 follow suit. The one thing we all have in common is leadership finding creative ways to screw over employees.

Why do some managers keep raising low risk review points when the team could spend time on more important things? They weren't like this when they were seniors.

Currently preparing to take the principal and superintendent certification tests. Are there any suggestions for great leadership books or pd for actual day-to-day roles/interactions?

My boss asked me to take care of some of the details of a project for her—the stuff that isn't really my area of expertise. And now I feel like a shirker because I haven't been able to finish them yet.

I am so conflicted and not sure what to do. A company I wanted to work for was not ready for hire when I first reached out in Sept. Since then I have accepted a job at a outpatient oncology clinic, starting in Jan at a renowned hosp. Having said that the other company does more of what I was hoping to do when I left my previous job. The company is a vessel for new ideas in healthcare helping their community specifically with seed funding, & launching their own programs. I have no idea what to do

Would you tell your boss you’re looking for a new job?

My boss in the past has mentioned he would like employees to let him know. I am currently starting to look and interview. If I told him, it would be under the reason of the difference in timezone (which is partially true, most of my team is in Europe and I’m on PT). I tend to think letting a boss know is a bad idea, but interested in hearing from others.

Curious to know what others think about the importance of both firm and in-house experience for mid-level positions. I do not have previous large firm experience (did practice as a sole practitioner for several years though - IP, entertainment law) but have five years of demonstrated success as an in-house attorney. Many mid-level postings prefer/require both firm and in-house experience. Is my experience disqualifying from such postings?

I have about $260 left in my fitness fund, so I would be looking to get something around $350 to spend the whole thing. I want some heavy weights, possibly dumbbells 50lbs +. Any ideas where to get some? Any other ideas of things to use it on?

Looking seriously at fed consulting so I can have a dog again. Which firm has the best practice? Best pay and benefits?

I shifted to US with my husband in Feb, right before covid hit. I have few friends near by but I want my life to be more socializing than this. I had been to my friend’s home and they have been here once twice. But I crave for more. Also we do not own a car yet and hence it becomes difficult to go far since because of pandemic we avoid taking subway.i live in nyc

Made my first big, client-facing mistake today. Almost made it a year without one, but alas.
Embarrassed and nervous about fallout, especially in the time of layoffs. Say a little prayer for me.

Any suggestions on resources to improve communication, specifically verbal? Books, podcasts, YouTube channels, etc. Got some feedback that I need to improve my ability to 'speak to my audience'.

I am currently in a “data-centric” role, as in I do a lot of SQL writing, unwinding python/php/java code to understand how systems work, and proposing solutions to either automate processes or eliminate redundancies.
