Hii guys,

Need some suggestions on ORMB vs Ebs/Fusion profile.
Currently I am on an ORMB project, but I feel this tool is niche and have limited career progression. I got EBS/ Fusion opportunity in another organization but the hike is very minimal. Should I make the switch into EBS/Fusion profile?

I asked for a raise in April 2022 after three years with my company. Positive feedback since day one. Learned I was making less than peers at other asset managers in NYC with less experience (14 years). Latest conversation was with HR about how they calculate salaries. I’ve been asked to provide examples how my role has changed since I started to justify the increase. Is this normal? Or is this just their way of denying my request?

Hi Guys,

Can anyone help me with a referral in HPE(Hewlett Packard Enterprise). Please comment on this post if you're willing to refer.

Thanks in advance.

I have about 1.5 years of progressive digital marketing experience, and prior to this, about 2 years of people management experience in a different industry. I’ve been offered a middle management position with company I’m currently at that requires me to manage 4 others below me, but is only offering a $5k salary increase - to $65k. Does that seem on the low end or is it valid? Any help is appreciated!
