*Sigh...y'all, I had someone at work throw a microaggression at me that hurt. It mischaracterized me negatively. And when I wrote my manager (also white) about how it made me feel, she doubled down in support of their opinion of me despite the fact that I had comments from attendees of the same meeting who saw it differently. (She wasn't in attendance.) I never even had an opportunity to describe the meeting at all, and all I did was push back a little by citing data. I hate this!

Don’t depend on them to regulate your opinions. Just note and move on. She’s shown she doesn’t have your back.

The best approach here is probably to make a mental note of how things happened and how someone who might have been an ally chose not to be. And just keep doing your job and don't let these things rattle you.

Hello Fishes,

Deloitte USI is offering me 15LPA fixed and 1lack joining bonus and HCL offering me 23LPA fixed. I've tried to negotiate with deloitte but they are not ready to negotiate and asking me to join on the same CTC which was initially provided. I'm confused to select the company. It would be really helpful if anyone could share their views. Thanks.

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.

Hi all.
