We're celebrating my daughter's 18th birthday at Disney magic Kingdom. Any ideas or suggestions to making this day special for her birthday. We are passholders and go to Disney all the time so want to make this trip stand out above the rest. We are also on fixed income and can only take off work that 1 one (Thursday) and trying to make up for the 16th birthday she couldn't have because of quarantine at the time. Anything would help. We have a very special dinner planned already

Hi Sharks, Upgrad or paytm, which company to join as a Software engineer, YOE :2.6

What kind of split does your firm give you for bringing in cases? Trying to negotiate with my firm for an increase. Currently, I get 15% plus my base salary.

Got an offer from Evalueserve, Gurgaon.
Current Role - Lead Business Analyst (AM in EY) - 12 LPA - 7.5 YOE - Domain - HR & Finance
Questions -
1) How is the work culture in Evalue as compared to EY India?
2) They are asking to join within 1 month, can this be extended to 2 months which is NP at EY?
3) I have asked for 17 LPA fixed. Negotiations are still happening. So, how much can they give.
Note - I can calc. my own tax. 😁
4) Work life balance is imp, so how abt the same?

Can an employer ask for joint tax returns to obtain health insurance with the company? I have never heard or been asked to prove this. Thank you!

Curious what has worked best for others. If you talk numbers in the first call with recruiter/HR, realize there’s much more money on the table, interviews go well and expect an offer, when is the best time to bring up the new number? Before they draw up offer? Or during negotiating initial offer?

I’m curious to learn how many applications or how long it normally takes for a junior corporate associate to lateral into another position. I am a rising third year corporate and employment associate at a small/medium size firm. I’ve been applying since I completed my first year. It’s been over a year and I’ve submitted 100+ applications. I do my best to network considering my firm doesn’t support my networking efforts and I work with good recruiters. Just really want to learn the norm here.

I think I generally do good work… except on one case with one partner. I got added to the case at a crucial moment with no context and no time to get caught up to speed. What I was asked to do was beyond my experience level and it’s been mistake after mistake since then. I just made another mistake this week, which I promptly addressed. Still, I have to call the partner tomorrow to explain. Continued…

Does anyone have any recommendations for career counselors/coaches in the boston or general New England area?

Weird question. Got an offer months ago for a job abroad (not in my country of choice) and turned it down due to the low salary and not being in Europe. I started a new role in NYCsince I got that job offer in a large firm (from a small firm in a small town), started 3 months ago, and I absolutely hate it. Not sure whether I should try this small firm abroad for a change in pace. The new firm swears, “if you ever work past 5 pm here, there’s something seriously wrong. We don’t believe in that.”

So just sharing for a little ‘female empowerment’, but I just got staffed on a huge deal (multibillion $, well-known client) and ALL TEN of the attorneys on the primary deal team are women. How cool is that?!

Did anyone ask their spouse (or anyone they dated) to marry them? Curious to hear the circumstances and how it ended up. I’ve been with the same guy for 7 years and wondering if I should make the move

I want to change my last name to my fiancé’s name when we get married, but keep my maiden name for work- how do you handle this? I’m concerned with bar registration & signing pleadings etc.

This career makes me incredibly anxious and I think I need a therapist. I’ve never been in therapy before and I’m not really sure where/how to pick a therapist. Any suggestions or helpful tips? Thank you!!

Seeking advice pls- I’m looking at new roles for various reasons, one being that where I am at is not a healthy environment. I had an interview and everything for the most part was nice, but I didn’t like how my interviewer cursed a couple of times as part of the conversation. I have no problem with cursing it just felt a little too informal and comfortable for the setting. Am I overreacting? I’m just scared that I will be going to a more toxic environment.

Starting the process of freezing my eggs soon. Any insight on what it’s like to do that? How did hormones impact your work, if at all?

Need advice: I work in-house, report to the COO. I have 5 yrs of exp and just barely started this job. The COO is a nightmare. She has already made negative comments about four other employees, not related to what we were discussing. She micromanages everything down to telling me how to write informal emails. She is belittling and disrespectful and I have now learned that everyone else in the org feels this way. I’ve always had great relationships with bosses and I’m at a loss. What do I do?!

I’ve worked at 5 different law firms over a 22 year career. I’ve been hesitant to put my complete job history on LinkedIn due to possible negative connotations but the truth is, taken in context each move was well thought out , a better opportunity, and in one case, necessary (firm winding down). I’ve grown with each move. Now I see that there are other women patent lawyers of similar vintage who also have 4-5 different firms in their past. Should I just put it all out there?

There is friction b/t me and a male colleague. My boss said its a problem we don’t get along. This guy talks over me and is rude. I hate conflict, but don’t want to be bullied. Any suggestions?

I would love to hear success stories about attorneys who have quit firm life, taken a non-profit or government job (including a 20-30k pay cut) and didn’t regret it. I am so over firm culture. My fiancé and I would still have a comfortable combined income but I am worried I would miss the extra cash. I think I know deep down this is what I need to do but I’d still love to hear success stories!

Is there something wrong with spending time with a new partner on Christmas? I’m away from family and I spent the morning and last evening with friends. Relatedly, if I don’t mind, is there something wrong with putting in a billable hour or 2?

Thoughts on the Peloton?

How do appear as a guest correspondent on tv shows and programming?

Has anyone taken a leave of absence from their job, and quit / accepted a new job while on leave? Really struggling with my current role - crying regularly, dreading each work day, etc. I’m honestly ready to just quit but I also l know it’s easier to get a job when you have a job so I’m hesitant to take the jump and just quit without a second though. Leave of absence seems like a good alternative?

assigning attorney told me back in February that the partners decided *not* to staff me on a very time-intensive, annual deal this spring (which I worked on in 2021), so I could focus on new work that has come in which I am REALLY interested in. Therefore, I signed on to those new projects. Now, seems like he is trying to walk back on it and staff me on Deal A. I’m unbelievably stressed and idk even what to say to him. Now I’m committed to other stuff/partners and Deal A is SO much work.

Follow up question. Has anyone purchased a lab/man-made diamond engagement ring online? Any recs?
