My company is finally hiring (several different roles), is this a good time to ask for a raise or should I wait it out some more? Ive been at my company for almost two years and have not gotten a raise thus far.

Would anyone who works in P&O at PwC like to chat? I came across a role that’s pretty much a dream job for me (I’ve worked in proj management hence my title, but my background is in business psych). Thanks in advance :)

Sorry if this is the wrong bowl, I’ve been looking for the best and this seems to fit:

Anyone know agencies in DFW area that are hiring? Looking for an accounts or social role w/ 3 years exp. If not, any I should keep on my radar? 👀

Got selected as an Intern+FTE at SocGen for 15 LPA from college campus placements. Is this less or enough, and are there any other things I should keep in mind when joining the company (the good and the bad).

Anyone have slow months where you burn through a lot of your allotted pro bono/professional development hours to keep hitting minimum daily hours? The past few weeks have been like this for me. Should I be concerned (I.e., will this reflect poorly on me, come review time? Will I have dug myself too much of a hole if I keep burning my non-billable hours?) I’ve been asking partners if I can assist in any projects so I can fill my plate, but I’ve only gotten small (4-6 hour) tasks handed my way.

Completely and totally miserable at my firm and just need a space to vent because my friends are tired of hearing about it. I wish the worst part about it was the amount of work, rather than the completely toxic culture, lack of appreciation, arbitrary and back/breaking deadlines, lack of mentorship/feedback/training, and the fact that the associates act like they don’t even know each other. I cry every day and constantly am made to feel stupid for not understanding the highly technical (cont.)

Hope everyone in IFS is hanging in during this crazy COVID-19 time.

Hi! I started at a new company 2 months ago and while I’m really enjoying my job so far, I’m having a hard time gauging whether or not I’m doing a “good job.” My role seems to be always evolving, which is fine and I actually enjoy being a support to the greater marketing team, but I feel like I need better defined targets to make sure I’m meeting expectations. Also, when I ask my boss what they’d like to see, I don’t ever get a clear answer. (Cont’d in comments)

Help! New to biglaw in LA and wondering if it is the norm to gift $100 per class year to secretaries at the end of the calendar year.

Is there a reason some of the biglaw websites look like they were made in 2006? Surely that reflects poorly on a company

Hi Fishes,

Hope everyone is doing good.

I need 11 likes to activate DM.

Hello! I was laid off from Better Mortgage on March 8th, 2022. I have a compliance background with one other organization. My role at Better was a End to End Mortgage Coordinator. This role focused on compliance and mortgage management. I'm searching for a compliance analyst or officer role in financial banking. Any leads or referrals will be greatly appreciated. TIA! At this time I am #opentowork

Got laid off. Have savings to hold me until I find a new position but mostly I'm just embarrassed. Has anyone ever gotten laid off and not told their friends/partner about it? I just don't want people in my circle to know I failed basically.

Anyone know of a Spanish-speaking catholic priest in the area that can do a wake service and burial prayer? My mom’s funeral is this Saturday and the priest we had made arrangements with can no longer attend. Any help/leads would be greatly appreciated.

Could be a silly question — i am beginning to look for a new apartment in the city and ideally want to rent from private landlords rather than going thru Apartment People / @ Properties / Compass, etc. How do you find private landlords?! I have good credit and am very clean! A landlord would love me lol

I’ve done 18 months of internal sustainability work such as building our sustainability practice, initiatives to get B CORP, SBTI, tracked carbon emissions, company campaigns for sustainability awareness, sustainability strategy.

Hey guys
What's a good birthday present for my 30 year old wife ? I got her something sentimental but I want to couple it with a few other things.

Will most of us (big 4 employees) be in at least the 200k+ salary range once we hit our late 40s and early 50s? I know that MOST of us won't stay with our firms, but does that mean we stagnate?

Does someone have a good punch list of things to do before giving notice at a firm?

Just got back from Ford vs. Ferrari. While it probably won’t be winning any awards, it’s easily the most fun movie I’ve watched in a long while. Highly recommend!

Can anyone from PMG let me know what the culture is like at that agency and if they recommend someone going there as a manager (Analytics)? Have an offer but as usual the internet reviews are stuff of nightmares but that’s typical of agencies

What’s the best way to blindly reach out for a job? My dream agency is one of those ones that never seems to actually post job ops. No real connections yet, either.

Want to get your opinions on the best small agencies in LA in terms of work produced (media and creative)

Do any of u have book recos that give you the low down for digital/social (inclusive of what reporting means ect)? Just joined a team and would like to be proactive since everyone is super busy for

My controversial opinion of the day is that organic social is worth fuckall for the majority of brands (including the trendy lifestyle ones) and that influencers are just propping up vanity metrics.

Here’s to the introverts finally getting a chance to have a little control over how and when interactions happen with others.

Without asking or confirming, account lead booked an in-person client meeting that requires travel. Who books ~any~ major client meeting without first checking with the team ?

So I'm in a weird space at the moment. I've been interviewing with a lot of agencies in the past couple of months, and I keep getting the same response of "I need more agency experience." How am I supposed to get that experience if one of the things holding me back is not having enough agency experience?

Thank you all for existing on Fishbowl and for being such a supportive community. It’s been a difficult year, but at the end of the day, I’m glad to have people to commiserate/celebrate with ❤️🙂❤️

if you receive an offer and give the standard two weeks notice, but the two weeks overlap with some scheduled holiday PTO, what would you do? extend the notice?

Newbie on the block wanted to ask how long the hiring process usually takes (for a junior or intern)?

Anyone have insider info on what adam&eveDDB, Mother London, and Uncommon look for in planners? Are they looking for awards? Thought leadership? Looking to make a move and want to take a shot at those 3!
