Is it weird to feel that the company that’s hiring you can’t be that good because, after all, they are hiring you?

Sort of like I wouldn’t want to be part of any club that will have me as a member mentality

I started working for a new law firm, much larger than the firm I was working for previously. The main attorney that I work under had noticed some mistakes I was making (I am a NY paralegal who took this position with the understanding that they’d be teaching me NJ and NYC real estate). Anyways, the attorney decided to tell the HR manager about the mistakes I had been making. Rather than HR discussing with me, the manager told my dramatic coworker to tell me..how should I handle this? Very hurt!

Hi guys, I have got one full time job for 14LPA from 10.5LPA in Coforge for BA role. On the other hand, I have one more offer for Canada and the job is on 2 years contract basis with 80k CAD per annum where I have to sign 2 years agreement as well that I can’t back out once I get the offer. I was interested to go CA but scared in terms of job security, economic slowdown and a big change. Is it worth going to CA on contract basis job declining the full time opportunity in India.

Hi Fishes,

Does anyone have worked at Vivid Economics or know about the company? There's very limited information/reviews about it. I was wondering if anyone could give me some insights, eg. the culture, people, the benefits, etc. Much appreciated!

Someone jumped in front of my truck a few weeks back (trying to kill themselves, luckily it didn't work) and now I'm feeling so much anxiety. I don't want to leave a job I loved though. How can I cope with this?

I’m sending close out emails and don’t want to be disingenuous. What do you say when it was NOT a pleasure working with someone? Looking for ideas on how to close out the message.

Has anyone done a survey for Capvision? I did one on ediscovery vendors that was supposed to pay $100, and now they are asking for bank details to transfer the payment. I’ve done surveys for Newton and they pay by gift card. So I’m a bit hesitant to put in my bank info here—seems like it could be an elaborate phishing scam?

Which company pays better salary - EY GDS or EY India? Also, can someone give Pros and Cons of both?

Hey Fishes,
Been working at D India as a Manager (Not USI) for past few months.
Ask me anything as there are very few reviews available online.
To clear few misconceptions
1. Global projects are available here
2. They've started mentioning Bonus, Gratuity amount etc in offer letter
3. Work life balance depends on Project and managers you work with
4. Inside opportunities if you're the creamy layer
5. PF amount in offer letter is the total deduction and not just company's contri

I burned out months ago and now I’m just in a rut. How do I fix this?

Weekends are really tough when you're unemployed and job searching.

Who is bipolar and/or has major depression and/or has anxiety and/or is/has anything else? Who has been in a mental hospital? Who has been to rehab? Who sees a therapist? Who sees a psychiatrist? ...

How do you do weekly therapy while working full time? I'm looking to start and have a potential reoccurring evening appointment, but it would still require me to leave the office by 5 once a week.

My partner is unstable, refuses to take their meds. Regularly snaps and lashes out at me. Im leaving and I feel compelled to tell HR for my replacement’s sake. Am I out of line?

My last therapist keeps coming up in my mind. I left her when I moved to a new area before COVID dug in and frankly it felt like leaving a girlfriend. She also disclosed in the final session that she was a member of AA and knew several of the people I occasionally discussed from the rooms. Her knowledge of the program certainly built trust with me early on, but it has been two years. I discussed it with my current therapist but she’s still in there. Any advice?

There’s no reason you have to put up with a job you hate. I spent many years working in a toxic environment with a boss who gossiped and lead through fear. He wasn’t really much of a leader but basically a foreman. And he could make my existence miserable. I admit that it wasn’t easy to find another job but the bottom line is: trust your guts. If you feel something is wrong it’s because it probably is. Don’t second guess yourself. Look for options and and fight for your mental health.

Can anyone recommend a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist in NYC? Manhattan or Brooklyn preferably

My job just announced mental health benefits to help end the stigma: 25 therapy sessions for employee+family a year at no cost. 🍾🍾🍾

This is the only bowl I can think to post in, but I'm really feeling it today. Has anyone lost their best friend (i.e. through time/growing up) and feel like none of their current friends could live up to the fun/connection you used to have with your high school BFF? I feel like I put too much focus on that one friend and also my boyfriend and just never actually made time for anyone else. I fucked myself over.

Struggling with ADHD, anxiety and depression and my therapist suggested I might benefit from medication. Anyone with Blue Cross Blue Shield in nyc recommend their psychiatrist?

I want to advance in my career, but I have no energy to do anything when I get home, even if it's an early day.

Love how i think... 'oooh haven’t been anxious in a while ’ then before bed I start to get anxious... 😩

My agency is “casual”, but recently I’ve been getting legit picked on for my work attire. No inappropriate parts of me are exposed. I wear jeans&a t shirt or leggings&a t shirt every day (cont).

I know this seems small, but my team ignored my birthday this week while celebrating two others. It’s not like they didn’t know - it’s my 2nd birthday celebrated with this team. Feels horrible.

Ever had one of those days where everything is just making you cringe so bad, to the point all you want to do is sit on the ground and cry?

Today is one of those days, and even when I know things will get better or "this too shall pass", I am sad, I can't enjoy whatever good there is...I feel powerless.

Have you felt like the industry (including job searching) left you contempt or jaded to the point, you’ve started turning into a nihilist?

K so. My bf just told me he is an atheist. I knew he wasn’t super religious, but our talks before made me think he atleast believed in some sort of afterlife. I know everyone has their own opinion..

If I had a dollar for every time my boss screamed “UGH C’MON” at his computer... It’d be enough to buy myself the medical coverage my company doesn’t provide. 🙃

Really appreciate this bowl - and this barely matters - but the cover image is quite off putting.
