Ignoring the racism here, these neighbourhoods are actually not diverse as they are particularly Black. I'm Black myself and wouldn't live in any of these neighbourhoods for "diversity" - these neighbourhoods are homogeneous.

Here to second East Boston. I actually grew up there, and have returned post MBA. Love the neighborhood, people, and culture.

What kind of diversity and culture are you looking for? Somerville is great for culture (arts, music scene, etc) and also has some amazing restaurants. Boston in general is not known for its “diversity” and especially not for its “diversity of culture”.

Just moved here, Boston is definitely the first “white city” I’ve been in: what I mean by that is that most places in the city, the most visible group is White people, secondly East Asian groups. Cambridge is definitely one of the more diverse areas across age, race, etc etc

I’d avoid Mattapan. They nicknamed it murdapan 👀 check out Jamaica plain and Dorchester. I guess it depends on your ethnicity or what culture you’re looking for

You CAN be that leader that people want to work with. 1st, self assessment is required. Be honest: As a leader,have you engaged in/accepted Attribution Bias with a dash of gender &/or race bias? (See the pic) This is something we all need to be aware of as we lead our teams, provide performance feedback, & model the behaviors we'd like to see more of on our teams. Be on the lookout for Attribution Bias in yourself & on your team. It's a hindrance to creating a high-performing, inclusive culture.

Hi Folks

Can anyone suggest me how is the work culture at BDO Rise audit practice?

My fiancé moved abroad for med school. Long distance is hard but I love my job, the work, the people, and the culture. I wish there were roles where you could work abroad. I wish I could work here forever, but I’ll likely need to switch to a firm that allows working abroad at some point to save the marriage. I’m afraid to tell anyone because I want to maximize my time/contribution here. Thoughts? Advice? Does anyone know of good firms that allow abroad work?

Had my second retrieval yesterday. They got three eggs and two fertilized. So far, this is the exact same thing that happened my last retrieval in January. Three total eggs, two fertilized. They weren't growing super well so we did a fresh transfer for both (and neither stuck).

Feeling a bit discouraged that the same pattern is repeating itself again. Probably will end up doing a fresh transfer for both of these embryos (again). I'm 33 with unexplained low ovarian reserve. Just sucks.
