Hi Sharks
I am 25 years old with in hand salary of 1L(just from last month) and i want to buy a term insurance plan. My questions are:
1. Is it wise to take 2 plans of term insurance one with return of 60 years and another without return of 80 years of each 1cr.
2. Is it wise to include health riders in insurance plan to claim for 80d or just chose health insu
3. How much one can ideally shell out for insurance per month (both term and health) for self in terms of percentage of monthly income.

This might be a long shot but I'm looking for a volunteer who is trying to break into a federal career. Maybe a transitioning veteran, recent grad, or career-changer.

I'm pursuing my master career coaching cert and need to do a recorded 45-minute session. You don't have to be identified if you don't want to.

The single session is all I'm asking but could certainly turn into a longer lasting coaching relationship (at no cost), if you like.

My office laptop requires service as the same isn't functioning well. Do I need to visit PS Arcadia office for the IT assistance?

PPMDs, if an employee comes to you and ask for support to join a different group within the firm and the employees ends up not getting the other role, do you typically treat them differently after (e.g., not staffing them on as many deals) / would you hold them back from promotion the following year?

Hi,

Anyone can provide review about Springer Nature Technology and Publishing Solution, Pune?

Company culture? Year to year hike? Work life balance?

How is the project for 'Tyson' client?

Reading cafes near Lakeview/Lincoln park? I have a light work day tomorrow…

Anyone prepping for the SHRM-CP test? I’m taking a prep course this fall and would love tips or to know if there are any study groups out there!

My company went toxic in the last couple months. Chose me and started interviewing. Had a very successful interview with Amazon but recruiter is working hard trying to place me and said there’s no knowing how long to find a team. Meanwhile I just received a Director offer for a company with a 29% pay bump July 1. If Amazon or any other FAANG/large co gets back to me, is there an acceptable way to not burn bridges with new job and accept or delay start date with FAANG? Or fuck it just hop?

Hi all, anybody looking for a flatmate to move around 1st week of April in Pune?

Interested in cybersecurity companies. What are some other than Symantec?

Have you walked away from somebody you loved? And why?

Lawyers who draft prenups - are you interested in referrals? If so DM me your email and name and I will reach out. I’m not trying to sell you anything don’t worry - just need attorneys to refer to.

Had a run of bad client experiences. Walking away after multiple pitch rounds, passing our ideas to other agencies, unreasonable budgets, etc. What are the brands that actually respect their agencies?

Agency I freelance for just gave me the ultimatum. I’d make $75K less to go full-time, and even that they weren’t sure they could get finance to sign off.

Why haven’t salaries gone up at all?

I would like to transition into a Clinical Informaticist role here at DFW Region. What is the median salary for this specialty?
Research shows that the top is about 78K annually.
Is this data correct. Bedside nurses appears to earn more.

What will be in hand salary per month for fixed pay 20 LPA in EY GDS after tax deduction?

Iain Tait and Ben Armistead leaving W&K - anyone know what’s going on there?

So, how was your Monday?

Best recruiters for client side roles?

Are there any recruiters in this bowl? What would inspire you to post openings?

London parents: What’s the best place to buy uniforms for girls? Would also be grateful for any tips for making it feel a bit less…well, uniform.

Interested to know: how nervous do you feel about losing your job during these strange days? And do you feel like your company is taking advantage of that at all, knowing you won’t leave?

I just turned the heating on. Wtaf. 🥶

Best recruiters out there for senior strategy roles in London?
Looking to talk to someone about my next step

Why is the ad community in London so cliquey?

Visa friends! Had an interview in London, got the verbal, and am doing the visa dance. Started the process 2 weeks ago with HR and now they've ghosted me since then, though they said I have stuff to fill out ASAP. Normal? And am I too American pushy if I reach out to the hiring manager (and my future team) for an update instead?

Opinions about Phantom?

Go on then. Guesses how long until Uncommon sell?

All my office has done about C19 is check everyone has Slack on their computer, just in case things get worse. Should I worry? Or is this normal for the UK right now?

Our senior creative leadership keep talking about winning Cannes Lions and D&AD pencils but none of them have actually won any since 2007 (that’s 14 years 😭 ) and between all three of them they’ve never won more than a couple of silvers, a couple of bronzes and a couple of in-books (that’s with a combined experience of over 60 years 😭). They have no clue 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭. Tell me something about your agency so that I can feel better about the hell-hole I find myself in🙏

Let's be honest and transparent here - salary and job role please:

National insurance

how’s everyone feeling about this?

Quite miffed as I just got a small pay rise and now I think this plus the upcoming not rises in utilities and inflation will pretty much cancel it out.

This country is fucked lol

Hey UK agency folks, Is it normal to expect a very experienced, award-winning illustrator with an extensive online portfolio to make pieces "on spec" to win a paying job?
