Beam Suntory: they’re the client where every meeting is essentially: "We know everything. You know nothing. Just do what we tell you and keep your POVs to yourself. Oh, and we are going to nickel & dime you on every expense while disputing every invoice we get.”

PowerBar: about 15 years ago, they created a cemetery mural on their office wall for Halloween. On the tombstones, they wrote the names of all 5 of the agencies they had fired in the past 5 years, leaving the last one with our name on it and a question mark underneath it. Just pure assholery at its finest.

Once had a Novartis client call me - and I quote - "stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid," in front of 20 people over the way we were putting things in front of their legal team. But he told me to do it anyway because we didn't have time to lose. Then in the meeting with the legal team, they specifically praised how I had done it. Then the client thanked every member of his internal team for my plan that had caused him to call me "stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid."

To clarify I mean abusive as in: lack of respect for any strategy, not forthcoming with feedback, disregarding timelines, doing a 180 when it is most unfortunate.

Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with discrimination as an Asian in the workplace?

I am not generalizing that this is how it is everywhere but it definitely is that way in my workplace. Any advice?

Should I Go Back and Reneg? Recently I was offered a role as a Project Implementation Manager (In Retirement Services) .The salary range for Colorado residents was 65-89K. I’m located in NY so the recruiter said he would try to get me more. Ultimately he came back at 90K which is a bit inline with that I was seeing on Glassdoor but approx looks like I may leave 10-12K on the table. I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice

Partners - Do you ever take vacations?

I have been at my current firm for about 1.5 years, and in that entire time the partner in my group hasn't been out of the office a single time. Is that normal? I can't tell if it's standard for big law partners to not take time off, if the dynamics for my group may be different (only 1 partner in the entire group), or it the partner I work with is just a masochist.
