Ladies - would you rather be treated like a princess, a queen, or a queen princess

Gentlemen - which one has higher regard and gets better treatment in your eyes? A woman that you call a queen or a princess?

Is being a “princess” when you’re a grown woman a taboo, or do princesses get treated better?

Do you broach pronouns with your team? How do you approach that conversation?

Is long hair a bad thing in corporate?

What’s the best way of selling work to your boss if he’s just not current on new stuff? I keep getting handed references from some directors from 10 years ago and I want to say “hey, what about something from this year, not last century”

Is it okay to wear flats/mules to a job interview?

I am about to leave my current organization and I have several thousand in outstanding commission owed to me. It is a start up, so I have little faith in their fulfillment if I am not there to hold them responsible. My contract says I must be paid it within 6 months of separation. How have you all handled situations like this?

When you tell your manager you are unhappy and they are excited that you are putting your notice and don't try and make any changes b/c the new person/persons they are lining up will just cleanup and make it better.

Then, they get here and you are left to train them on everything you do and your manager keeps saying "I owe you an apology" because they didn't realize how taxing and mind wrecking most processes you handled were... welcome to corporate

I keep fighting with the product managers on my team, who keep assigning me new features to build without checking first if I had the bandwidth for it. How do I communicate this politely?

I’m new to the firm. My third project my manager was very hands off. He’s wants to have a discussion with me about my performance. He did not give me any support to work with; even when I asked! And my direct manager agrees with him, but it was my third week. What to do? I feel like I’m going to say something crazy. Any advice?

I have a hard time answering why I’m looking to leave my current employer. The truth is they don’t treat their people well and I want to be respected. How do I answer this question without making it seem like I’m bad mouthing my employer?

Now I'm in a client location, My manager is a good person but he told me, I should report to Lead.

Lead is a psycho. He shows hell to the team members including me.
What should I do ?

I’m a new associate working for a well-known defense attorney in my state. On one hand, I’m thankful for the opportunity to learn from one of the best, but he also excoriates and belittles me for my mistakes. Any advice on how much it tolerable? I am here to learn and advance my career but he can be pretty nasty. (My mistakes are no worse than you’d expect a 1st year associate to make, in case you’re all wondering if I’m a major screw-up who deserves it) I leave work feeling a foot tall.

A guy who used to be on my team resigned a few weeks ago for another opportunity. I ran into his new boss socially and told them I was really impressed with how this guy was handling the drug bust and battling his heroine addiction during this career change. It shows real grit. That’s what wishing the best for others looks like.

How do you professionally address a noticeable lack of diversity on your team? More than 85% of my team is white or white passing, and of the remaining individuals none are Black, Indigenous, or AAPI.

Two years out of college do you still leave clubs and older internships ( maybe your junior summer) If they are relevant and show leadership depth

Junior associate here (2L). Got some ‘constructive feedback’ from a 4L. We went over budget on a matter, and 4L thinks it has something to do with my inefficient delegation to 0Ls (and not the all the out of scope work the client asked us to do but doesn’t want to pay for...). Delegated tasks included basic grunt work like splitting out documents, preparing execution versions and other low-level tasks. 4L asked me to check with them before I delegate anything in the future. Thoughts?

Leaving my big4 firm halfway through busy season to pursue a great career opp.. I feel bad but I gotta do it. How much notice should I give? I want to be as respectful to my teams busy season staffing as possible, is giving them more than 2 weeks notice risky?

Hi all,

My boss makes jokes about me being from a different country whenever there is a work meeting or a gathering with coworkers, even though he knows where I am from. This usually occurs when I meet new work-related people or for example if I am in a situation that involves ethnic related subjects.

What is this? This is normal?

Stereotyping?
Racism?

The first time I ignored that, but now it has become a pattern and is bothering me now. I am south-American working in the UK.

Started in FDD as an S1 from audit a couple months ago and got put on a messy deal with just me and a director who is very “hands off” and I’m very overwhelmed 😅

Any cologne recommendations for the office? I was told I need to wear something more subtle.

Citius Tech. I asked for 30LPA. HR said it's not at all a problem.
Manager was fine with my profile in 2nd round and he said he will move to next client round. HR mailed me next day like like the client band is less and working on it.

Yesterday the HR replied that they can't match my expectation and thanks for applying.

Hare yaar. It's you who called me. I purposely said if you have budget proceed. Without even knowing that these HR's are working. Time waste for their employees too.

Hey all, Happy Monday. Curious for feedback on how you've seen severance offers approached.

My prior companies have always been what I thought of as average: min of 2 weeks plus extra week for every year for ICs, min of 4 weeks plus extra week for every year for managers, etc. for Directors & beyond.

Current co refuses to offer more than 1-2 weeks, max. I had to go to bat recently for a 3 year + manager level only to get 3 weeks and my leadership team is NOT happy with me.

Thoughts?

I am a 2nd year that works in individual tax but was hoping to leave public. Would I be able to make a jump to industry as a senior tax analyst? Or would I be wasting my time since I don't have any corporate experience

Tax Senior here. I’m well liked around the office, I put in the hours and work hard, I haven’t had any dumpster fire projects, but I am a mediocre performer compared to my peers (not as strong project management, communication, not as confident). I just got told they’re firing me. Should I expect severance? Have other people been fired for similar? What did you do with your career?

I’m currently an HR specialist and trying to decide what I want my future to look like. I would like to step away from the transactional, administrative HR work. I’m fascinated by employee satisfaction and like the idea of helping to improve retention and leveraging metrics to improve toxic work environments (I’ve seen a fair share of dysfunction in my career). I’m thinking the Consultant route may be best for this. Any other thoughts of roles or titles that may align?

If there are any earth science teachers out here (preferably in NY) can you please reach out for a potential opportunity?

Should you mark that an Employer should not be contacted if asked on application? EEOC Discrimination COMPLAINT FILED during Pandemic. Contract was not renewed!
Are past employers contacted without being listed as a reference?

I have an opportunity to move into a new position - Electrical Engineering and Production Manager in the Chicagoland area. Having been in the industry for 10 yrs what salary should I expect and negotiate around? Does this position typically come with bonuses or additional compensations? Any insight would be appreciated.

How much does a Fresher business analyst gets paid in Mumbai?

What is work-life balance like in big tech legal? I’m currently in house at a large multinational; I like my job and I get paid fine, with a very good WLB (40-45 hrs). I want to look into FAANG-type opportunities as they would mean a huge pay bump, and I think I’m qualified, but I have no idea about the hours, and I don’t want to substantially give up WLB, as that’s why I left BigLaw. I don’t want to be miserable again. I know Amazon is poorly reputed for lawyer WLB… what about other places?

I can find women interested in relationships, but can't find anything casual.

she's a 10 but excel thinks she's an October

PSA, you can transfer your car loan to an interest free credit card. Got 18 months interest free with BOA and a 20k credit limit. Transferred my car loan and I am no longer paying interest

My latest LinkedIn annoyance is the people posting about their kids wearing their company swag or seeing their company logo/name out and about (as in sponsorships).

Idk who needs to hear this, but…

Just because someone disagrees with your perspective, it does not automatically mean they’re gaslighting you.

Grinder is so much more convenient for hookups. Anything similar for straight men?

Projectile vomiting into the bathtub while using the bathroom from the other end is so much fun. Yay stomach bugs

I was tired of asking people to go to concerts with me so I booked 5 of them to go by myself, starting next month. Hope I’m gonna have a blast

Kanye isn’t a good student. He didn’t know how to dog whistle as well as Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and DJT. He didn’t allude to his prejudices, he lifted with the legs, and that’s why he’s canceled and they are not.

Was offered a role at fluent360 but I can’t find out anything about them… the only thing I’ve discovered is a fairly high turnover rate. Any advice?

I call my family after work and spend time with them.Sometimes I even take my family on a trip with me lol

Why aren't adulterers tried in court as a form of custodial voyeurism? How are there no legal consequences whatsoever, when there used to be a death penalty? Did you know US Military members are held fully accountable and it's illegal for them? Why should the rest of society be any different?

Is there an online auction or store-like site where I can buy lost luggage at rock-bottom prices, so I could buy a high-end suitcase cheaper than retail?

Anybody have experience with a legitimate private investigator in the nyc area? This is an awkward conversation with friends and family so thought I would try here. Online presences are difficult to gauge so web not that much help.

Should you gift your GF who has kids but not with you something for Mother’s Day? 👀 if yes what’s a good gift that’s not over involved ? (Not flowers or chocolates 🙄).

No desire to work today. Anyone else in the same boat?

Going back to work tomorrow after a 2 week long vacation. Scared to check my emails 😭😭😭

My confession is that as a young guy, I want us to go back to the office so I can meet driven, career minded, attractive women. So tired of being catfished and all the other BS on dating apps.

Edit: to clarify, I don't mean hitting on women at work. I would just like to meet quality women, and I don't go partying or to bars. It's very hard as someone in their 20s coming out of a pandemic to meet people.
