Planning on moving back to Dublin after a good 5 year stint in Canada. A two fold question;
1. Salary I could expect as a strategy director (8 YOE)? And 2. Are there any CRM focused agencies in Dublin (or at least agencies that offer it), or is in house looking more likely for this speciality.

Hi techies

I am a python developer with an experience of 3.3 years. my current CTC is 7 lakhs.
How much salary can I expect If i switch now?

I got variable pay of 1 lack, two times after April's appraisal (so total 2 lack). I didn't had variable component mentioned in offer letter, but it was showing up in hr portal. Now payroll people are calling me and asking me to return the 1 lack saying it was done by mistake. What should I do?

Under trump tax plan: earn 120k, pay 33% taxes, net pay is 80k. Earn 112k, pay 25%, net pay is 84k. Approaching a salary bump, what would you do?

I recently got a job offer through a company that offered me the high end of what I was asking (75k) but since it is the high end of what I asked for, do I have room to negotiate? Do I have a leg to stand on if I even try negotiating at the point? I have til Friday to fully accept. I’ve never negotiated my salary but want to be sure I’m being paid fairly for this site merchandiser role! TIA

Hi, I am bringing together a team through a reorg any suggestions on how to bring a new team together remotely?

I’m studying for the SHRM-CP with the Mometrix (study guides, online course, and flash cards), however I’m super overwhelmed with all of the information. What are some best practices to ensure I grasp all of the concept ? Any advice would be much appreciated!!!

Does anyone have the 2020 SHRM books for sale or to borrow? My job won’t contribute towards my certification. I’ve already paid for my test. I have the books from 2015 but I’d like to study from the 2020. I tried finding them online to purchase but sellers of affordable books aren’t responding.

I want to get my masters in HR, but I also want to get my phr.. is it better to get one over the other? Or should I do both. Are there any masters hr program someone can recommend?

For those of you who are SHRM CP certified. Can you please advise if the SHRM learning system is worth it? Are there other effective learning tools that are less expensive ?

Anyone else work for a group in a different city? Any tips? Any concerns you think I should be aware of that I might be overlooking? Going to be joining a lit team in a different office in my state. While the firm has an office in my city, there are no other litigators in my office. A bit worried about being on an island. Fwiw I’ll be a mid/senior associate and I plan to make frequent visits to the office where my team is.

How long did your longest matter last? I imagine litigators take the cake here but curious about deals as well.

How many years experience typically do you need before you’re eligible for a Senior Counsel role at your company? Does your company only care about years or does it also care about duties and your personal contributions?

When my job is to handle all the corporations issues does it ever get hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel? Like that this business will survive? It will get its next round of funding? This litigation won’t wipe us out… something’s I just become very pessimistic about the future of the company.

I just accepted an offer in writing. The new job will start the background check next which I’ve been told it may take a while to complete.

I don’t anticipate any hiccups in the background check but is it wise to wait until the background check is complete before turning in my notice?
