Why mention the balance sheet impact if it wasn’t under consideration 😬😬😬

Yeah I think the leaked EY memo mentioned that eliminating PTO will improve our balance sheet or something along the lines.

I really hope that the question that was asked did not make leadership think we want unlimited pto

Farewell freelance life. It was good (money) while it lasted. Unfortunately, the stress of looking for my next gig and never saying “no” to any gigs wore me out. Huzzah for health insurance and 401k!

My gf is still waiting for her EAD and had to go on unpaid leave of absence which is coming to an end in March. Noting delays on current processing times, what are multinational companies offering on similar cases? Are they terminating their employment without any health insurance benefit until they can be rehired or are they offering any other support? I would appreciate you sharing your experiences to benchmark. TY

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again. My previous experience includes time at B4 audit up to senior level and then transitioned to manager in industry. Senior/manager roles are preferred.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.
