I’m a staff 2. About to be senior and want to relocate cities... how does one bring this up to their manager/counselor without possibly upsetting them.

My boss asked me to submit my career aspirations after bringing in someone in a new position over me. Is this a bill shit assignment? Has anyone else ever asked to do this?

I've been seeing a lot of ADCOLOR posts on linkedin, and some of the people who are liking and reposting it are some of the same people who were blatantly racist and rude to me when I worked with them. I wish there was something I could say/do about it, but it's literally making my blood boil seeing them like posts about "uplifting" and "supporting" BIPOC, only because I know that once they get off their screens and they're the meanest people

Hi community, humbly seeking professional HR advice. I recently joined my company’s HR team. In an informal conversation, a senior HRBP, considered a peer, called 2 of our fellow HR colleagues “worthless.” I should have rebuked her then & there but was so caught off guard. This person is 20 years my senior. In the same conversation this person advocated for me on a separate matter & complimented my performance. I am not sure what course of action to take at this time. Distraught & unsure.

What advice will you give to yourself when you were a newbie in the professional life? Give the context too.
I’ll go first- I’ll tell myself to not overshare, especially to the manager. People will generally make an image of you and judge you on basis of that even if you have changed a lot.

How soon did you tell your office you are pregnant? When is the best time?

How to deal with people flirting with you at work.
I’m married, and one of my coworkers flirts with me. Nothing super overt, but definitely not professional. We’re good friends and work together constantly because we’re on the same client, so I don’t want to make it awkward. Do I just do nothing and let it go? It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!

How do you deal with unresponsive summers? I’m a junior and overseeing my first project with summers (5 in total). Two are unresponsive and do not acknowledge my emails. Do I need to make it clear that I expect acknowledgement when I assign work? The other three don’t have a problem with this, so I’m not sure what it is.

I don’t mean this sarcastically at all, but account people... why don’t you call clients on their crazy shit more? Is it a “pick your battles” thing?

Recently joined.. How to know who is our HR..whom to take concerns with..like need to switch project..etc..

Got braids. You'd think I literally got a face transplant from how shook my coworkers are. I would say over 10 people have stopped me to ask about them or comment on them and I've been at work for maybe 2 1/2 hours. It's all been positive, but am I wrong for still finding it annoying? They don't lose their minds when Sarah gets bangs or whatever so I wish they could keep that same energy.

What's a good heel height for work?

Same responsibilities, higher expectations, and lower pay than my peer group but I’m told that I’m the future... Not sure how to approach ... should I raise with HR or my boss?

F this, I need some normalcy back in my life.

I'm going to wear a suit while I'm WFH.

My manager (unknowingly) messaged me on Grindr. What should I do now?

As a junior, how do you deal with the anxiety that the advice you provide to a partner based on your research (that is being sent to client without much supervision) could be wrong or incomplete?

Just found out my manager is not a CPA. I look down on him now.

Gave my notice, HR pushed my term date up, then goes back on what they said because they realized they needed bodies to help out. 🙄 like why didn’t you double check with the scheduler and teams earlier. literally stated it in my email too. I can’t wait to leave 🥳

What is the most “do as I say, not as I do” thing you’ve been told or punished/reprimaded for as an associate?

Recommender asked me if I wanted to write my LOR and have them sign off. I don’t think it’s a matter of laziness but they wanted to be sure they accurately captured what they needed to. Would you just ask her to run a first pass and offer to review after?

What do you do if your manager hates you but you feel you are doing a good job?

Any travel recommendations in December?

I don’t understand how majority of folks afford rent here. Also, how these luxury apartment buildings stay full capacity. Seems as if majority of Coloradans I meet aren’t raking it in $$$.

Coinbase should do a Black Friday sale.

Hi, for those on H1B, is there anything we need to do or file when changing address within the same state? (I’ve already updated in my company’s system)

Not the results I was hoping for this morning. Went for my first appointment before starting injections this evening. Only 9 follicles. Was told birth control can suppress some so they may just not be visible yet but feeling very panicked now despite the doctor saying it was ok for my age.

This journey is taxing.
Sending you all positive vibes ❤️

This weekend flew by smh. Can't believe it's about to Monday already

What industries is the CFE certification used for? How does it compare to CPA in the length of the material and difficulty? Do most firms pay for It?

Managers and above — if you could go back to being a staff/senior, what would you have done differently?

Are you very serious and wish you were less serious or vice versa?

Does everyone get promoted to Senior, assuming they don't get below a 3 rating and overall solid reviews from all engagement teams?

I hate my life. I'm on the last chapter of FAR and it's my last exam...I hate this shit...all for something we are expected to get not something prestigious...excuse my petty rant.

KPMG: where is your strongest group, geographically? One of my clients is using you for internal audit assist, and they managed to majorly fuck up multiple areas in the weeks before we filed.

How do I work 55-60 hour weeks and have 50 percent utilization?

Getting my CPA hours is like doing jail time

I would have got parole but I don't have money

Everyone who's in the jail longer than you can easier beat you up

Everyday you just want to get it over

Anyone work for Schellman in the NY metro area. Want to know what’s it’s like in terms of work load, client base and travel. Thanks!

Hey KPMG how is life in the FRM advisory? Got a job offer from them
