Yeah for sure. Idk how often HR is involved, but CEOs having affairs? Sounds like the most normal news story you could possibly hear. I think the only reason it's caught the popular attention so much is because the video was funny and it was a Coldplay concert. And she was in HR.

I'm sure it happens and it's really not that surprising. I think the viral aspect comes from how obvious and embarrassing they were about it. I bet we see people walking about having affairs all the time, unfortunately, but it's rarely so incredibly obvious. Here's hoping the spouses are doing okay.

Do CEOs have affairs with their employees a lot? Yeah, probably happens all the time. But the odds of it showing up on a Jumbotron and then going mega viral seem pretty rare. I feel bad for their spouses, but overall the story is pretty funny.

I worked for a company where there were suspicions and rumors about the CEO and a company publicist. To this day I don't know what the truth was, but the circumstantial evidence seemed to indicate that when they were traveling together things went on that shouldn't have. But, of course, they had enough sense to keep things out of sight, they weren't openly displaying affection in a crowded stadium.

I renegotiated my start date and it’s different from the date I signed on the offer letter. Do I need to request a revised offer letter or is the email thread with the recruiter sufficient. By the way, my background check is already in progress.

I’m interviewing with a startup and the range has a 40k difference from the lowest to highest point. It’s also pre-seed and comes with equity, and health, 401k benefits. It’s a director of sales role so I would eventually be recruiting and managing a team along with building the processes and strategy. What would you consider a fair compensation package? If they offer me something on the lower end of the range, is it still appropriate to counter with an offer that is over their stated range?

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!

I was approached on LinkedIn for an early career recruiting role in DFW, TX. I don't have direct experience, but I have the university experience/connections from working in career services. This is the first time I've considered work outside of higher education. I said my salary expectations are minimum $90k and that didn't seem to be an issue. Am I asking too little, too much? How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?
