Question: can an employer legally withhold your personal possessions after you leave the firm? I left my old firm recently and they were not happy about me joining another consultancy. They are withholding any belongings that I left in the office and have ignored my emails asking to arrange a pick up or delivery of my personal items. I understand the covid19 environment impacts the situation, but anything I can do to get my stuff back? Any help would be appreciated. I’m based in NYC!

I work small (tiny) law. I make mid-100s, so not great salary, but my firm is so laid back. If I bill 1000 hours, that's fine (we were a remote firm before COVID made it cool). Compared to all my peers getting crushed under 1800+ billable requirements, I've got severe imposter's syndrome. Did I do something right or have I set myself up for failure by avoiding the pressure cooker? (I was at a firm for 2 years that was 1800+.) Curious as to thoughts/experiences.

I started as entry level customer support, was promoted after less than a year and then promoted again about a year later to Operations Manager at my current job. I was offered 60k to start and after 2 years with no raise due to COVID was offered a 3% but was able to negotiate 8% with a promise that it'd be revisited. Shortly after, our Director left and I took on his responsibility with no comp increase. He made close to 100k and am unsure what to ask for or how to during my comp review tmrw.

What is a good interview answer for leaving a job after a few months when the real reason is that you’re sleeping with one eye open in hopes of not being on the chopping block after two rounds of massive layoffs? Company culture is at an all-time low, and it will only go down from here from what I’ve seen in the short months I’ve been there.

What’s the skill you see most new art directors lacking? I’m hoping to use this time while laid off to learn something new.

Curious if anyone has received a mid-year promotion and/or pay raise during this year of COVID. If so, please state old/new job level and percentage raise received.

Hi all,
I graduated during Covid with a double major in business administration and business management with a minor in marketing and magically ended up in sales because I needed a job. I’m about to take a data analytics course to make an attempt to break into that field. I’m currently looking for a mentor to help guide me during this time. Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks

Facebook question: our organic reach has dropped significantly. Aside from the level of creativity dropping (i e. On the images we've switched from heavier Photoshop type photos to generic designs), is there anything else that we could've missed? Client is asking but we don't see anything else that could be affecting it. We post at similar times every day, and (as per the client's request) we are currently not running paid media. Thank you!

I have been at my firm for just over a year & have begun thinking abt what I want my career path to look like. Due to the structure of my firm, my practice is very varied.

I’m not in a rush to leave, but I don’t want it to come as a shock to my firm when that day comes. What’s the best way to effectuate a lateral move w/out bad blood?

Started at a new firm 5 months ago and I still don’t have a full workload and because of that my billing sucks. I’ve reached out to my supervising attorney, 2 partners, and even looped in someone from admin just to see if she knew if anyone needs help. I specifically say things like “can I take some work off your hands? I need more billable work” and I get a few small things but still behind on my total billables. One of the partners talked to me about my billing but I just feel stuck. Cont’d
