One of the directors on my team is a woman in her 30s and she speaks in a very child-like affected way. If I was pressed to give it a term I'd say "basic" or "Cali" girl but it's just not very authoritative, and she finishes her sentences with her voice going up so they all sound like a question. I'm concerned that it undermines her authority in outside meetings and I'm so tempted to speak to her about it but not sure if it's appropriate. What's your advice?

Just switched to advisory and working directly with a talented SM time to time. How can I show humble but also not acting like know nothing? (Say you have related work experience and did some hw...)

What women’s walking shoes do you recommend? I live in Chicago and take the train to work so usually change into shoes once I get to the office.

Am I the only social worker/therapist who doesn’t work well with being assigned to do last minute paperwork? I’m a very organized person, both personally and professionally and this has been challenging for me in a professional setting. How would you present this to your supervisor who continues to not understand? Any feedback is appreciated 😊

Mid-level when she's leading the call: please make sure you take notes. It's expected of the person not leading a call (note I always take notes)

Me(jr): asked to lead a call for a different deal as training. Mid-level doesn't take notes (also on call) and tells me it's the job if the junior to take notes.

Can a manager put you into “Do Not Hire” list after you leave the firm? …Just because they hate you? No issues with performance or anything else

Dear Nappily Ever After,
No one has an office, much less an assistant. Creative and account are different jobs with their own dress codes. But dumb, off brief ideas by white creatives do win.

How do you deal with ambiguous feedback?

What do you think when associates/senior associates misspeak on a concept during a meeting or interview?

I’ve learned something new on each project, and I’m afraid of coming off as an idiot so I rarely contribute to conversations; only after I have done research on the topic and have prepared do I speak/give ideas

I have a meeting tomorrow to sit down and network with an MD mentor. Anyone have any good conversation topics/ questions? Trying not to appear green and naive...

Hi fishes!

I am seeing too many post about awards like rising star, Kudos, etc. People keep telling there managers recommended them for these awards.
My manager doesn't interact much with us. I consider myself as some one who has worked hard for project and other intiatives. Should I ask my manager to consider me and if yes how should I initiate it.
Part of MC team.

Thank you.

My natural instinct is to assume rejection if I have conflict with a partner or don’t think my feelings are reciprocated. I’ll try to bring it up with them, but I’ll say “if you want to end this feel free” so it doesn’t hurt me (and they can say what they really mean instead of sugarcoating). Someone told me today that they just assume I’m not interested because I always seem to “run” but I’m not sure how to bring up problems/feelings otherwise. How do you approach these hard questions?

Is it appropriate to give your PL a gift (MD)? It was a promotion year to SM…

How do you get through to a client who doesn't get the cultural references in your work because they're too old and frankly uncool without saying "hey you're old and uncool, I know better"??!

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

What is your understanding of the norms around whose names end up on a brief/complaint/motion papers etc.? I’m a midlevel at an AmLaw 20 firm and have twice been the principal drafter of something only to be cut from the signature block. The associate senior to me is on it despite having done far less of the work. And it’s not because it required a rewrite or something. The filed product is 80-90% my work. Am I wrong to be pissed off about this?

I have a wee crush on one of the partners in my firm and I thought he liked me too, but neither of us did anything about it (which is entirely appropriate). That was all pre-Rona. Now I’m leaving the firm and pursuing another opportunity and staying in the same city. Since he’ll no longer be my boss, is there a way to find out if my feeling was correct? How should I go about this? (Especially given Rona?)

My boss in my creative agency threatened to fire me because I, a male, came into work with my nails painted. HR is having a very complicated day today as I found out I could take legal action if he does fire me since we don't have an established dress code that has any guidelines against male nail polish wearing.

How do you 100% utilized folks try to network with other folks in at the firm if you’re always at client site? Trying to get some face time with them

How do you handle rude clinicians in the workplace? I always have an attending talking down to me.

When the senior who you thought was your buddy throws you under the bus to make himself look like manager material. This is like high-school all over again.

How do RSUs/equity work? I received an offer that includes $20k equity. I'm not sure if this is good, or low, as I don't really know how the payout is calculated or given. Can anyone advise?

What is your fashion inspiration? (i.e. GQ, Pinterest, etc?)

Hi EY fishes. What is the high range of base salary M / SM level in Advisory / TAS? 170/220 sounds about right? Again, I am asking about the high range 90-95 percentile

DC - AFS, Senior Analyst making 88K salary with a 2K sign on bonus I had to negotiate is this a good deal?

Thoughts on Engage NY/Eureka math...

Current IE here. What are some Time Motion Study Softwares that are out there and you use in your jobs?

For a linear regression analysis… the equation of a line is Y=MX+B, where M is the slope. So if I’m measuring a line across 365 days and M=.2, can I say that I have increased production by 20% over a year. Or is production increasing 20% each day?

Curious, what did your 'coming out at work' entail?

Sometimes I feel like I am a drone that just works all the time and I have no friends.

How do you feel about "workplace of the future?" I literally can't focus when I can hear & see everything everyone is doing. It's definitely impeding my productivity to not be in a quiet environment.

I know a lot of firms have strong LGBT groups, and I'm definitely not saying it's the same, but any idea how poly people are treated or if you've even seen anyone out about it?

Best books you read this year that aren’t about sales, marketing or prospecting?

Anyone have success leaving their firm after a year out of undergrad? If so, did you come into your new role at an entry level position?

Any KPMG Lighthouse alum here? I want to leave and curious to learn what opportunities you guys found. TIA!

Been through all interviews, recruiter said it's looking good but they would let me know early this week and asked if that works from a timing perspective since they know I was interviewing with someone else also. I said yeah that's fine. Would it be weird to follow up today or should I wait to hear from them? Want this one over the other but don't want to seem desperate..

Would you switch out of Advisory as a Senior 1 to work in corporate finance as a Supervisor for 30% more pay?
