We gonna need an IPA or ten, based on a survey of IPA agencies: average age of employees = 33.9 years; over 50s = 6.3%. BAME employees slightly up at 13.8, but only 5.5% of C-suite. Joy.

I just received my last paycheck from my company with 160 hours of vacation supplement on it. I didn’t have any vacation days left when I resigned. Is this an accident? Will my former company come after me for this money? It’s a little under $10k..

Hello Guys, Its been more than a week, I accepted the salary breakup and Status changed to Evaluated in ibegin. I have not heard anything from Hr, she is not replying to any emails.

Got pushed into the manager role after a few of my superiors quit and I’m really struggling to fit into a leadership role. Any tips to help me adapt/grow into this position?

I recently started working a side gig to supplement my income. It's tiring but I felt I had no other choice. Has anyone else here started working a side gig too?

Anyone who has started up a side hustle whilst working in consulting - is it generally a good idea to let your employer know or will they make your life difficult/try to push you out if they know?

(Context - I need the extra income to have a shot at affording grad school, I work for a small boutique, job contract was ambiguous on the issue. Side hustle is selling stuff I make as a hobby on Amazon)

Thanks!

This bowl has shriveled up and died. Is there another water cooler the USI consultants go to?

Is this bowl alive?

Who is planning for next year's draft?

Black man with dread in the workplace. I want to grow my hair but I don't want negative perception to keep me from moving up, any advice?

I’ve been practicing for 6 years in-house at a media company (was a startup when I joined and is now more established), straight out of law school. Due to the small nature of our team (3 legal members), I have been involved in all areas of our business and even advise c-suite frequently about legal risks. I received a promotion, with another title bump on the horizon this year. I have an opportunity to go to a start-up media company as the sole attorney. Anyone else have experience doing this?

What field is everyone here working in?

I have a boy I legit hate. Like this is not like me. I’m 20 years into this gig and I just have less and less patience for shenanigans and “I’ll never need English in my life.” Earbuds are constant. 😡

Any other air simulator pilots out there lol?

What is everyone's to do list to start private practice? It is rather daunting to think about

Is anyone else scared to open up their practice?

I’m in publishing and my 1-woman department is growing (meaning me, ha) and I need to outsource some digital analysis duties to a part-timer. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to go about this, or suggested agencies? Note: We’re also exploring the in-house part time option - which I obviously prefer but due diligence and all..

Any tips or words of wisdom as we prep for the panel presentation and Q&A?
