Is it ok to tell a company that you worked for them if you are in an interview and you work for them and they ask who you work for when you work for them? Any advice would be appreciated

But if you work for them when they asked who you work for and sometimes you worked for them then when they ask who you work for and you work for them it becomes somewhat like a paradox as far as who you worked for tho

Guys OP is just trying to ask if its okay to tell a company that he works for during an interview if they asked who OP worked for that they work for the company that is interviewing OP

OP if they dont know you work for them you may not want to let them know because it sounds like a pretty crappy place

The wording of this post is 🤮

Yes, absolutely - go for it!

But sometimes I feel like it’s difficult to tell them during the work interview that you already work for them if like it’s the same HR that hired you when you first started working for them and they don’t necessarily remember you even when they hired you before a few weeks prior (I was wearing a different color suit) but regardless having to considering trying to work there when the first one didn’t really work out makes it somewhat complicated to work out on my end

Do you feel like a lot of things are complicated for you?

Took my first vacation (1 week) in over a year to visit family. Was bombarded by emails from one partner asking me to complete non-time sensitive motions, which he hasn’t even bothered to review. This is my third firm in three years (first I left as I was severely underpaid, second I left for a 100k increase in salary), but this lack of respect for my boundaries has made me want to move again once I’ve completed 18 mos. Bad? They don’t do this to the other associates (all male).
