If you’re going through egg freezing or egg retrieval, do you think it’s something you should openly tell your employer when asking for time off, or should it just be treated like any other medical procedure without explanation?

I personally would not, but I’m not at all close like that with my manager. Most, I would say, is planned medical leave. What would be the benefit of telling them? And if you are really just that close, awesome, but I’m not sure that’s the case for many of us.

Makes sense if you’re not close to them. My manager and I get along but I’m not as close as well

My manager knows my entire story. From me being scared of being pregnant. To the fact that I want a surrogate. All I have to do is say when and I’ll have a week off for egg retrieval.

Wow that’s nice!

Have an interesting scenario. Holiday party season is approaching. At one of our parties (during working hours) there is an optional “talent show.” Employees can win door prizes. We have an entry that is a religious song - like one you would sing in church. I assume we need to let this employee perform this - or we are setting ourselves up for trouble. Likewise, if we permit this song, I assume we cannot compel attendance to the talent show. The talent show is part of a lunch thing.

I’ve worked at places that all have different holiday policies. EA has at minimum a nice 10 day shutdown from Christmas Eve through New Years. It’s great to know that there will be no slack messages or an exploded inbox to come back to while away. I’ve been at other studios that only give you Christmas Eve & Day and New Years Eve & Day and then the rest is up to you to request for PTO and this is obviously the suck.

Wonder what it’s like for you?

Hey friends! I hope everybody has had a productive week and had an awesome weekend for those who enjoyed their holiday! This question is specifically for Amazon Web Services in sales.

So I am currently a potential candidate as an AAE. I was told that I would in the future have to prepare a mock deck and deal with objections.

Has anybody had to prepare them and what was the scenario?

Thanks everyone!

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license.

I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?
