The pandemic has been a blessing in disguise for me because I've managed to move from a miserable in-house gig to a big city agency where I truly belong. It's permanently remote at an awesome company so we've decided to design our lives and move our family to Antigua on their digital nomad visa, which allows us to live there for two years as remote workers. Has anyone else taken advantage of the digital nomad visa programs available in much of the Caribbean? Would love to hear about it if so!

I can do some python and SQL but mostly for data Analytics (Pandas and Numpy libraries for instance).

I have a flipped classroom and my biggest challenge today is that my high school students don’t slow down long enough to read the directions/ instructions/ deliverables. Anyone see this happening?

Hi everybody,

Looking for some insight/curious to hear how others would handle this situation:

I have an offer I want to accept; I was trying to negotiate for a signing bonus… but they’re not budging.

The issue is, the start date is in a month and I’m up for a promotion in a week at my current company. I would like to leave before I get promoted, I think it would be pretty low of me to accept and promptly quit.

Not the new employer’s problem? Or can/should I try to leverage this?

How is the Thoughtworks working model?
1. Full time Work From Office.
2. Hybrid (how many days work from office are needed in a week or month?)
3. Completely Flexible (employees can work remotely as much as they want)

Why does the 3% Conference get so much money from agencies & clients when they have a history of showcasing toxic, abusive to female employees underneath them, women in advertising?

But agencies and clients should take a hard look at who is speaking before giving money.
