I was chatting with a colleague today and we were talking about how a direct report was checked out lately. It’s certainly an uncomfortable situation. How would you handle it as a peer or a manager?

How to handle your own procrastination? Any tips/advice?

Could someone explain what finance closing process is? I passed CPA and have audit experience but I don’t really understand how industry accounting cycle works :( What does it mean to close the books? Are they referring to 12/31 deadline? Do all JE have to be recorded within this date? How does one close it?

Do you think it’s a good idea to have a chat with the partner who interviewed you after starting the job? What should you talk about with the partner?

I have a question, I got a contract role through a recruiter. Initially the recruiter offered the hourly pay rate which was the minimum in my range. Now I got an offer from the company. Now without me asking her she increased the hourly wage to the maximum range I asked. Which makes me doubt if the company increased it or she knew the rate all along but gave me the lower rate ?

Anybody looking for a senior analyst?

Someone here asked recently which candidate would be better for workers like us who are here legally with all the credentials, paying US taxes just like Americans. I kind of laughed inside and I still do. Why even ask? Did any other administration excessively hate us this much to the point the rules changed substantially gazillion times a year? Let’s be real. This is nothing more than direct targeting of us. How can anyone not know which is at least less worse? 😂

What is life like at a large Bay Street law firm?

People of Color, how do you deal with an all-white team who doesn't acknowledge your (worthy) accomplishments while pats all incompetent employees?

What do you think about switching tech stacks vs becoming an expert in one stack? I am a backend Java engineer, and have solely used Java since I've started my software engineering career about 2 years ago. I don't know whether I should explore other tech stacks while I'm young, or instead focus on becoming a Java expert, given that I enjoy working in Java.

What makes you want to learn yet another programming framework / library / language besides the stack at work?

What would your reaction be if the company you applied to asked for you to get permission from your current firm before moving forward? The situation is the company you're applying to is a client of your current firm, and you've already gone through the interview process with the new company. Thoughts?

What’s the normal pay increase from SWE 1 to SWE 2. Not a FAANG company, but Fortune 500.

What programming language are you mostly using at work? For me it’s Java

Is it common to negotiate software engineer salary at smaller companies? I know it’s common at FAANG, but what about for companies with around 200 engineers? I have a counter offer from my current company and on-site interviews scheduled for end of July with google and Amazon, but I’d prefer to go with the smaller local company if I can negotiate the salary (from offer letter) up another 5% or so.

Does anyone have any advice for a junior C++ engineer. Or do companies generally don't hire a specific language. You just have to take on whatever code work is available. Are you specifically hired for a particular tech in your company? Or most of the time you just end up not doing it at all?

How many years did it take you to get promoted to senior software engineer?

We're seeking a Manhattan Active SWE. Whose experienced with design and dev SaaS solution. Someone hands on exp with Java 1.8, Spring Boot, Kafka, and Aws. Along with expertise in microservices architecture. Send me a DM if you feel you fit the mold.

Has anyone else worked two programming roles at one time?
I currently work as a Contracted Software Engineer and I’m set to finish my contracted time at the end of October. To stay ahead of game I started to move forward in the interview process with another opportunity as an Application Software Programmer and just received notification that I got the position. I definitely could use the extra paycheck to help out with my financial obligations. Just wanted to see if anyone has done this before.
