This week I want to check in with my team lead and product manager to make sure we're on the same page. I also want to check in with new members of the team to make sure everyone I'm responsible for is comfortable and not overwhelmed.

This week I will meet and discuss our projects technical points with my manager. And I will answer every single email I get within 48 hours, which is tough for me.

This week I will get through a large backlog of requests and clean out all of the old items, leaving my team with a clean backlog. A big undertaking!

I can totally relate! I hope you were able to accomplish this! :)

I wanted to give time to train datasets following ML models. Would be awesome if I can find a buddy ❤️

I want to be able to finish my assignment in Typescript! (I’m a CS undergraduate ☺️)

This week I am wrapping up a really big project I have been working on. And I cannot wait to be done with it so I will be finishing it this week. I don't care what it takes.

So to give some background, I currently have about 6-7 YOE in the BA/PM space, and my current position is 100k, with 10k annual bonus. The position I hold is as a Senior Business Analyst at the company I'm currently at.

I received an offer for a Salesforce Functional Business Analyst at Accenture for 128k annually with a 15k signing bonus. I'm hesitant due to the lower title, as I want to move back into PM work, and feel as if I'm taking a step down. Also, concerned with the WLB at Accenture.

Question for TSG folks - I'm considering applying to TSG. Do I have to use a recruiter (external or internal) or can I apply on my own? I think I can have more bargaining power if I apply on my own without having the recruiter in the middle since TSG would have to pay them too, right?

Is there irony in the fact that HR and leadership of sales organizations ghost candidates? The very people that stress over prospects disappearing turn around and do the same thing to people they've interviewed 2, 3, or more times.

This is brutal.

Does anyone else wish their school had been more up-to-date on STEM when they were a kid? I went to college with some kids who had been practicing and studying code since middle school. I learned about it from the internet in high school enough that I wanted to go to college for it, but I still feel like I started behind everyone else regardless of gender.

Can anyone help me?
I’m 25 and have an array of experience within environmental science. I mostly enjoy being a field employee but recognize the pay is not always great. My current position is bureaucratic and technically oriented which is great for skills but not for growth. I know I have more to offer and want to expand into different areas of STEM. Any suggestions or recommendations would help, I’m open to anything!

Was your interest in STEM or in pursuing a career in STEM ever discouraged? If you could, would you go back and rub it in that person's face?

I'm the only woman on my team in the lab, and all my male colleagues told me today they just assumed I would handle getting our boss's Christmas gift and card together. They thought once I had everything they could just sign the card, and that would be it. What's the best way to explain that this isn't cool without coming off naggy? If we drew sticks or something I'd be fine, but this feels lowkey sexist. Thoughts?
