I'm a newly promoted account sup , and I am leading a team that is mostly remote. Most of us haven't met in person, and won't have an in person client event until this fall. I'm sensing some burnout and zoom fatigue from the team, and I don't want to add to it ☹️

Any best practices for leadig virtual teams?

Did anyone receive Form 16. I got mail but couldn't find in HR Workways

Is secondment provided to newly hired managers?

For all the former consultants, what skills have you learned that helped you transition to PM and what skills did you have to unlearn?

Hi all -
Sorry for the long rant, but could use advice or just encouragement.

Got laid off for the first time in my career 3 weeks ago. I have 10 years of PM experience (mostly ecommerce & experimentation). I was fortunate in the past to have had recruiters scout me directly so this is the first time in over a decade that I am applying to everything that I’m qualified for, mostly qualified for, and way over qualified for with zero leads. Only 3 interviews thus far that didn’t go forward.

I love my SO. We’ve been together for nearly a decade and are talking marriage. I know being with him though will require living far from my family. I love my family and dread the thought of being far from them. My SO has been transparent about wanting to return to his home country. I don’t want to lose him but I also dread being far from my family. What’s the right call here? Fwiw he’s lived in my home country for about a decade now but has been able to visit his pretty easily (cont)

Any recommendation on under eye cream for wrinkle??? Thank you!

T3 firm reached out re: direct admit to the partnership with some runway to grow the practice. I am at a firm now where there aren’t bright line metrics to make PPMD, but think I could make it in 2-5 years. This would be a step down in brand, but might be better from a WLB and getting to start at partner. Haven’t had firm comp talks yet but range was well north of 50% increase in cash comp from current (plus LT equity, draws, etc). Anyone take $ over brand? what are some traps to watch for?

Big4 partners, do you feel the journey has been worth it when gauging by the variables of money, family, sphere of influence, and happiness? Or industry still seems more alluring? Thanks for your wisdom.

Any F in Minnesota?

Any from Google Cloud looking for Customer Engineers? I passed my onsite, but currently recruiter mentioned there is not headcount to fit me in. Happy to be squeezed in anywhere at this point.

Shall I disclose reason for leaving a firm during my initial call with a recruiter from said firm, if I was laid off? Are they privy to that information. Ironically being recruited by that same firm

Hi Fishes

Want your opinion. how much base pay can be expected for a senior associate position in Technology Consulting for someone with ~7 years of experience.

Considering new firm but weighing benefits.
Is there a site/article that breaks any of this down by firm? Google wants to compare Big 4 with regional
401k match, vesting, and mega back door Roth option; health insurance, dental, mental health; vacation; etc.

Low billable, low pressure work in privacy law? Slowly realizing that as my boys get older, the money isn’t worth what I’m missing out on. Currently a tech litigation associate with lots of hearing, depo and trial experience (I’ve appeared on my own at hearings/depos) at a well respected firm. I have limited privacy experience despite being hired for that reason… Have my CIPM and CIPP/US /E and /C. Remote preferred; hubs is pilot with cool intl transfer opportunities. Money isn’t issue.

Hi Fishes,

Please help me choose the best company from the below companies:

1. Legato
2. One Advanced
3. Amadeus labs
4. Rakuten India

YOE: 6
Tech stack: Java, Selenium, Rest assured, Postman, Functional testing, etc.

Confused between Amadeus and Rakuten. Rakuten is paying slightly high around 1 LPA more than Amadeus.

Please help me to make the right decision.

In today's scenario what is the average pay for a senior software developer with yoe 6-8?? (Do not include companies like maang and similar companies). I want to know if I am in average salary slab or not. TIA.

Any success stories of moving from accounts to being a broadcast producer, how was the transition? Thnx

Right so here’s a bit of a dilemma I work to a much higher standard at home and it’s this high standard that means I’m in line for a promotion. I’ve grown so much and I feel really strong in my role I’m also busier than ever. The problem is we’re going back into the office and I don’t want to go in if it’s just going to be senior management in asking me to get them lunches for client meetings or fetch a glass of water and cutlery for meeting rooms. Definitely not ready to go back to that….
