You are a 4 only because we have too many 5s and had to adjust you down.

EY 1 sorry to hear that. What was the rationale behind it?

Haven't heard from my counselor yet... Is that bad?

@EY1 I'm sorry to hear! Are you a part of an established service line?

HR actually said in the email to start having conversations on July 5 so some counsellors are really playing this by the book

Dang... That must mean I got a 2

It was a bad year overall for a lot of firms, yes a lot of people will be disappointed but its not the end of the world. Either keep slaving away or start looking elsewhere.

Was a lead on a sale and the SM gave me a 4 on it cause "he doesn't give 5s for non client work". That 4 was the reason I got bumped down from a 5 to a 4

Beginner here. I'm trying to use my points to buy a flight to Puerto Rico. If Delta costs me 55k points on my Amex (valued at $600 per Points Guy), versus United which costs me 60k points (valued at $700), shouldn't I still just go with the Delta cause I'm spending less points?

Advice on applying to PM jobs with 1yr APM experience?

I’ve been working as an APM at my current company for 1yr, and have basically been doing the work of a full blown PM the entire time. I’ve lead several features from start to finish and made sure to mention in my resume that I have been doing everything a regular PM does. Has anyone ever hired an APM for a PM role or done it yourself? Any tips? Advice?

So I have two jobs I’m in the running for at the same company. Position A offered basically the same comp that I’m making now, and I’m still waiting on the results for Position B. Position A would like an answer by tomorrow AM (I was told today, I asked for more time and they said no). Would you guys ever take a job at the pursuit of trying to switch internally in the company?

It’s always been a company that I’ve wanted to work at but making the same that I’m making now is what is stopping me
