If I’m freelancing at an agency and getting paid a day rate versus hourly does that mean they can have me work overtime? I basically need to know if I should compensate for that in my rate.

Hi Folks,

I'm in negotiation with the this data company (which is only 10 % over offered fixed ctc) but HR hasn't shown much confidence. They have asked for week's time & say can only offer a signing bonus. I'm getting a bit nervous as it's an opportunity I've always wanted!

Am I panicking unnecessarily? Should I hold my nerve? Or should I break the logjam and just accept?

PS I had just joined another org because they were taking too long to process + my dream co is only matching current CTC.

Hi, I was promoted to Associate in March. Am I eligible for October annual hike?

Time to jump!
Where should I go? I’m after FC at Schwab, Vangard or somewhere else where I can be a planner and clear 100K + a year.

Base of $80 would be nice. I’ve made so many other people money this year I’d rather quit and not work than keep doing this. Business partner will make $500K this year on net new money, that I closed for them. Plus, anything developed they will get paid. I’ll be happy to possibly get a bonus at the end of the year? Maybe?

Im S1, got an offer from another big 4 to be a manager but my firm (also a big 4) wants to make me a manager and match the salary immediately.

Just something I noticed in my experience. I could be way wrong.

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people. Account people should have a good understanding of how much effort and time goes into a project. Project Managers are missing a lot of context so blind leading blind.
