Moved to industry. Boss is a former consultant and extremely picky. Gives vague instructions for analysis but has something in mind already. If I don’t hit when he was thinking, he scraps my analysis. Anyone ever experience this? More stressed than in consulting

Hi all, How do you deal with having a good relationship with an ex-colleague, and then that person switches jobs, becomes a hiring manager, is hiring for a position you’re perfect for (experience + credentials) and then you reach out to them saying you’re interested and why it would be a good idea - and then they completely ghost you..I also sent an application via the website and got rejected. I am really always trying to help out old coworkwrs with getting jobs, but this is just frustrating 🥲

I ended up in a heated discussion about something work related with a director and I did not let my guard down and made my points clear. I feel like he now has a grudge against me.

Pretty new to the Canadian workforce. I am wondering if people usually send christmas cards/buy presents for their manager and/or teammates in the Canadian corporate environment?

Started a new job in FAANG but the stress of leaving consulting & family issues in quarantine has started to drive me crazy. Everyone in this new company is great but I’m starting to realize that I need to take a few months away & figure my life out. Scared to tough it out and I want to tell the HM that I’m not in the best state to continue & need to quit so I don’t burn further bridges. Will I get blacklisted? I feel awful since I went through background check and dong want them to reintervuew

Is it presumptuous to invite a new coworker to join our company’s LGBT+ employee group? He mentioned in a call that he recently got engaged to his bf.

One of my female friends has been approached 3-4 times in the last year by recruiters explicitly telling her that they're calling her because she's a woman. Doesn't make her feel great - like her gender is more important than her skills! Anyone else experiencing this?

Im a 6th year associate working for a company that I plan to stay at long term.

Can you change team before 1 year? My manager communicates something and says something’s else the next day. I am getting tired of explaining and sending/ asking questions over emails just to be sure. I don’t think she is as invested in me as other people who were here before me. What are my options?

Do you guys think it’s important to personally bond w your coworkers? a lot of members on my team are trying to organize a socially distanced day at the park because they « miss everyone so much » and while I genuinely like/appreciate them as people... this feels so extra? I definitely don’t feel the need to go out of my way and see the whole team during a pandemic? Am I horribly antisocial or do most people care this deeply for their coworkers/team

Hi. What do you do with a gaslighting boss and coworker in a small office? I also don’t feel like my boss even cares about me. Examples- there was a man with a gun in parking lot that I had to flee from and call police, he didn’t care- just asked me when I was coming back to work.😳 zero compassion. didn’t care I had a blinking light above my desk, waited two months to fix it though my eye was twitching! Makes me feel like a burden for taking care of my health, etc. and gaslights me regularly!

What TV, cable, or YouTube shows are helping your mental and emotional state these days? I like Sugar Rush, Time to Eat with Nadia Hussein...I’m finding that all I can watch these days are news and cooking shows. Not sure why.

I learnt digital Marketing and started Interning at this Media House in Mumbai.
I am in the Paid Media Team. They paid 7k as stipend. Now they gave me an offer letter as Media Executive, the role of client coordination and basically a beginner account Manager.
But they've offered a monthly salary of 12k. They said the max they can do is 15k.
The problem here is, I was under the impression that Media houses generally pay higher, but 15k is too less I believe.
I want to know your real thoughts

1YOE medical device NPI Lead looking for salary perspective

Mechanical engineering grad, joined a medical device startup that I had done co-ops at. 8mo into full-time, pivoted from engineering into more of an operations role doing new product introduction (NPI), now with 3 direct reports.

I am a corporate lawyer with background in Securities, governance and SEC reporting work. I enjoy this area very much. I joined a late stage start up a few months ago to help the company IPO and do SEC work afterwards. So I’ve been doing IPO prep along with other general corporate/governance work. Today the Big Guy says to me that there is a chance the IPO may “be delayed” for various reasons. Company has enough cash so IPO can wait. (Continued in comment)

Is anyone in the DS/ML consulting world? Specifically for private sector clients. I’m wondering how it’s different from government related projects.

Let's say I'm a former analytics specialist who left the field several yrs ago for a top 10 MBA and strategy consulting at big 4. How would I parlay this into finding *non-tech* AI/ML/DS roles like strategy or product?

I don't want to use R/SAS/etc daily again, but many places either want me to be a DS/engineer which doesn't suit my interest, or require more recent technical management experience, which I don't have.
