My wingman quoting Kevin Samuels. Fml. 😂

Partners of fishbowl, were any of you bad junior associates or did the job require perfection all the way through?

What made you realize that science was the right path for you?

How much can coditas give to .net developer YOE-3?

Cisco

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time

My firm will be holding yearly reviews (and giving out bonuses) in January of 2021. This is the second straight year reviews have been in January. Curious to hear whether anyone else works at firms that follow a similar timeline for reviews and bonuses.

Firm that pays M1 most in their IA practice? LCOL 6 YOE. Pay range please..

Mentioned to my boss this week that I had reached burnout & that I was beginning to consider my options. I have received offers recently 50K above what I make now & communicated that. On Friday they said their boss would be touching base with me next week. I am in above average standing with the company & received a good annual raise earlier this year. The issue is I took the job below my market value to get out of a much worse job 2 years ago. Realistic outcomes for my upcoming meeting?

Hi,
I have cleared 1 round of TCS,how many chance of selection in 2 round.

Are children (who can’t be vaccinated) really going to be banned from NYC indoor places soon?!? 😃😃😃🎊🎉🙌🏻

I work in the office once a week. External screen I had was base 1080p so I requested a better one. Got a 4k screen… but it’s 30 hertz. The people pleaser in me doesn’t want to say anything, but the lag is insufferable. I know I should request a better one again but that’s the last thing the people pleaser in me wants to do. I guess I’m just looking for the courage to request what I need to work. I know it’s silly but it really is challenging feeling like a bother. 😕

As a relatively new employee, what do you share in 1 on 1 meetings with Manager?

And how would you respond if they ask if you are bored? I'm keeping myself busy learning about the new industry, but I'm not sure if that's apparent.

I'm a software engineer, and I've been working remotely for my entire career. I love the flexibility and autonomy that remote work gives me, but there have definitely been times when it's been hard to feel like I'm on an even playing field with my colleagues in the office.

SaT strategy - Lateral hired folks - After how long did you get your offer once the final round was done?

Got laid off on July2, still no unemployment payments from NYS. Is everyone having that kind of delay? Impossible to get through to unemployment on the phone.

Here to vent anonymously but if you have advice please share…

It is so hard dating as a young black professional 😩. I am 25, owned my own home since 23 (lived on my own since 21), am very ambitious, I’m about 4k away from making six figures. I do not want to date anyone with kids and I don’t want to date anyone still living in their childhood home or their Momma’s basement.

I just want to meet a kind, self-sufficient, FAITHFUL, emotionally intelligent black man who is interested in a ltr 😭

What does it mean when a guy says they’re looking for a girl that doesn’t take themselves too seriously? Should I be a joke or…?

Best consulting firms for real inclusion?

Anyone bank with a black owned bank? Which one and What’s your experience been like?

For green dot peeps, anyone have any experience with the “Healing Circles”? I was surprised to see it’s run by a Black psychologist (rather than a random HR person being held against their will), but I’d also like to know how effective/helpful it is.

What is this “African American” vs. “Black/African ” convo that keeps popping up??? You are just BLACK in America. Periodt.

I am first generation, my parents are immigrants from Africa, I identify and share/empathize with all of the experiences my Black brothers and sisters in America have. The system does not see “Africa/African American”. The system sees BLACK. My brother isn’t catching a break because he’s “from Africa”....

Are there any place you all recommend for a family vacation that is not in the U.S? It will be my parents, siblings and their families so a good amount of us.

Wish Biden would just say Black people and not African Americans.... I’m not African...

Do the MLT recommenders actually have to write a letter or recommendation or is it more so a form they have to fill out?

Any ATK heads here? Went through LinkedIn looking for black Partners, and have only seen one so far. Is ATK light here, and do they care?

Periodic reminder to my people to find every possible moment to rest when you can.

A lot of stress gets converted to damage over time. That’s something no one will actively offset for you.

Remember: the body keeps score.

Career Tip: Martyrdom is not rewarded in the workplace. Take your PTO. Take care of your body & your mind. Have interests and strong relationships outside of work so that you do not attach undue importance to the people at work. Protect your peace.

Hi! For those of you making over 200k can you tell me your job title and or industry. I am looking to grow but not sure which direction. Any feedback appreciated!
