I'm tired of coming across jobs that don't have unlimited PTO. It's almost 2024 people.

lol… would never join a company that has “unlimited” pto

Unlimited PTO really only benefits the company. It’s been found that people still only take about 15-25 days of PTO a year. If you find a company that offers 4-5 weeks of PTO or more, It’s essentially the same as getting unlimited. Also, with unlimited, you miss the pay out if you leave. So I’d caution against it being a dealbreaker for employment. Also, you can negotiate higher PTO if a company only offer 10-15 days.

My boss fired me because i ask for clarification on my employment right.

I got hired not long ago. I realise some of the employee benefits i was told (missing in the contract) contradict with what’s stated on the law. So i email the boss about it and ask for clarification. Immediately after the email i was fired.

Just want to make sure people know this and don’t apply jobs in this shady company- it is called UniQ Biotech, in Delta, BC, Canada

Hi lady fish,

I’ve been with Accenture for 10 years and am about to take maternal leave. I got an interesting conversation with HR yesterday about leaving Accenture after maternal leave, and the kicker is to join the client. I got a couple of questions for you guys:

One...did anyone leave Accenture right after maternal leave? If so, what happened? Did they have to pay back anything?

Hi, where or what types of companies should sophomores & juniors apply for next summer (2022) to recruit for IB the following summer (2023)? This summer BBs wrapped up SA IB recruitment, EBs even earlier, and a fair amount of my friends missed out big time.

Also, if a sophomore or junior doesn’t get a finance-related summer internship (I.e tech) and aims for an IB SA or FT position, is it harder to break in?

Appreciate any advice and insight, thank you.
