I’ve discovered that the person people think is the data guru on our team has some super creative accounting practices. While they were out on leave, I was asked to take it on. They are now back and keep doing it. Up until my recent promotion, this person was senior to me. Now we are same level, dif tenures. It’s not only wrong but bc they do this to inflate their numbers when we report for the team it obv it has effects. How can I approach this? Today we had a super tense meeting. I’m nervous

Are they lying on actual financials and you can prove it? Terminate. There’s no room for that in any business. Talk about a major liability. If it’s inflation of KPIs or some other internal metric reporting, do your own analysis and find the right time to show that there is a discrepancy. Use it as an opportunity to reconcile the numbers with your counterpart and leadership. Subtly call out the weirdness that way. Leadership should be able to figure out what’s going on from there.

They are lying about KPIs to request additional budget and headcount. Last year they got 2 resources and extra vendor budget this way.

This is SHADY...you have to raise the alarm if you can confirm the KPI inflation. It's going to come back and bite everyone otherwise. I agree with above, raise it subtly and see how they react. They had to get caught eventually...

I recently joined HCL. The project team raised the Laptop request for me and the IT team has allocated the Laptop for me but how do I raise the request to deliver it to my home. Someone please help as I cannot go and collect the laptop. When will they provide the ID for new joiners how to raise the request ?

I feel a little crazy saying this, but more money at this point doesn’t resonate. I see a ton of exit planning and boomerang threads here, but I’d take a 50% pay cut (or a 50% raise) for an exciting role. That’s totally privilege talking, but I just can’t imagine chasing extra money in PE or lateraling just for the money. No virtue signaling here at all. I actually worry on some level that I’m somehow a moron for not giving a thought to maximizing earnings.
