It is sickening to see people laid off after CBA posts massive first-half profits.
AI makes coding “easier”—fine. But you have dozens of open roles with double referral bonuses, begging for outsiders while dumping the very staff who delivered those numbers?
That’s not strategy; it’s contempt.
Upskill your people instead of trashing their livelihoods to chase cheaper hires.
CBA has shown its true face: extract, discard, repeat.
I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Stay away.

PPMDs, if an employee comes to you and ask for support to join a different group within the firm and the employees ends up not getting the other role, do you typically treat them differently after (e.g., not staffing them on as many deals) / would you hold them back from promotion the following year?

Wondering if anyone can give insight as to what salary range is for an insurance compliance role as an IC3 or similar?

When you look to choosing a position to apply for and lets assume you get to be choosy - will you go for a org with big HR team or smaller HR team? Currently an hrbp for a medium global org with 10 hrbps in the Americas org supporting different groups/ regions like i support canada and a business group - looking at a role where hrbp report to sr hrbp and she reports to Vp of HR. The TA Manager reports to the VP of Hr as well. Sounds like a smaller HR team - are there any benefits to this move?

Currently an associate at a V30 and negotiating a partnership position at another V30. What is the correct way to maximize the pay in the negotiation as a lateral partner? I’m afraid of settling at a lower price than what they can do at the top end of the range! Do I anchor by asking for an outrageous figure or let them offer a salary figure first?

General question: Is there any room in corporate America for real, actionable DE&I discussions and initiatives? I've observed so many corporate versions become an advertising strategy (SM posts, diversity reports) without doing the actual work (increasing representation in senior leadership, salary analyses, having an effective reporting system for bias). Is this just how it is?
