Just started a gig at a digital agency. So grateful to be employed for a minute. But also it's so stiff and beige. The calls are all droned-deck reading. Zero personality. Remember laughing at work? Remember crushing on co-workers? Remember goofing around while concepting? 😔 I am likely 20 years older than all the kids on the calls. But on the inside, I know I'm the fun one. Also, omg so little discussion about strategy and concept. "Read the deck." Not complaining. Just noticing.

I have a partner who routinely ignores emails or responds to them several weeks later. He has to approve every single document sent to the client or the court, which means you have a physically go to his office to ask him to review something. Half of the time you go to meet with him in person, he’s either on a call or otherwise busy. I find that this basically creates more work and makes meeting deadlines extremely difficult. Is this normal?

Hey all! I have an interview with
Deloitte in Regulatory Risk and more precisely in their Investment Management Services team. I would like to know if anyone
knows what the job entails exactly. I keep hearing about people "fooled" into taking a job in risk advisory thinking it'll really be advisory while they only end up doing IT and Audit support (which I do not want to do).
Is it the case here?
Thanks!

So this will be my first Thanksgiving working. Not going to miss the family drama, and I'm imagining front of house will do pretty well with tips but maybe that’s optimistic. Any thoughts?
