Our company currently doesn’t have a system like this, which has been a point of contention for quite some time. But I’ve gone rogue and started managing some of my projects in TeamGantt and I’ve only had positive experiences so far.

I love smartsheets for projects. It isn't workflow so much as communication and command center for a small.set of project managers to see dependencies and resource allocation. To get the most out of it, you need an Enterprise license

Hi, I’m the US office & marketing coordinator for a fintech recruitment company w/ HQ in the UK (Started 6/21, $52k, based in Chicago). Apart from the Talent Acquisition/HR Head I’m the only staff in the US - all others are recruitment consultants w/ base salary + commission. Not only do I already assist w/ HR/onboarding, I work in almost every other operations aspect (IT, finance, etc) & manage US marketing under the global head. I think I deserve $60-65k. See resume, is this reasonable? Thx!
