Hard to go wrong with Allen Edmonds: easy style choices, good value. Plenty of better and more expensive options but if you can get what you want at AE on clearance I don't think there is a better value anywhere. As an analyst this is probably where you should shop. Once you make VP you can add a digit to your shoe budget.

I've fallen in love with Santoni lately. I'm up to 3 pairs now. Great leather, very clean style.

true true. AE is definitely a go-to as a starter. I was wondering if anyone had tried any new companies? Since I work at a boutique it's casual and tried a shirt from Mizzen+Main and it's pretty solid. I wonder if there were any startup shoe companies with a good value and material

Let’s talk about wrongful termination. The other day I was fired in the middle of the day without any warning. My colleagues called me because they were confused on why the Talent Manager dismissed me from the chat. I didn’t know what they were referring to. So I called my PM to ask what was happening, and she said that she just got off the phone with the TM and said they were terminating my contract on the spot due to me speaking up about micromanaging. No explanation just kicked out. Advice?

What you should do when dealing with a very toxic worker that keep on sending passive aggressive messages to you as well as in group chat and email.
Things like when you answer his question he respond: I know that
Or when he keeps on saying my change requests were just minor in group meeting but actually not.
And keep on saying how hard he works when he clearly wasn’t and already underperformed compared to an intern level.

How to not let this toxic co-worker not poison me any further?

How do I get them to give me a budget to work from?

We’re both offended with how this was handled by the VP, are we overreacting?
