What would you do if you heard your coworker (who's a new friend) talking really badly about your boss (who's an old friend) to customers? If it was to another coworker or something it would be fine, but I don't love the idea that she's making the business sound bad to people who like coming here. Should I bring it up with her or see if I can tell our boss without getting her in trouble?

I've worked with the partners I report to, but not so much outside of my practice group. Is it normal for an associate to request a partner to do something or request information?

My organization absorbed another and the former deputy PM became a branch head - a demotion. For org was more focused on tech dev and not delivering a product on a sked. New org is very focused on that. He is not a driving leader, but is the only one with the tech knowledge needed. He is retirement eligible. He has no heir apparent - previous org didn’t plan that way. If I move him under someone who is a driver - he retires and I lose the knowledge. If I don’t, we may not meet schedules. Advice?

I always feel like I’m not aggressive enough for consulting. Others often talk over me, and I’m not sure if I should just talk louder. Any tips for those who have felt this way, and what did you do?

Who here works in a warehouse? What is the correct etiquette to address a rude supervisor? He’s constantly getting on my last nerve.

That awkward moment when you are on a client call with your director who introduced you to fishbowl and you open said fishbowl during the call and bubbles start going off..........

2nd year here: just got reamed multiple times by a partner in a checklist call for not having enough detail in my open items list. Thing is the draft i had sent the midlevel was far more detailed, they told me to remove it all and make it as barebones as possible. Do I just take this L? I'm pretty annoyed because the partner mentioned it TWICE in the call with clients for my lack of detail.

Midlevel didnt apologize or even acknowledge this issue. I've never been so mad in my career.

Random question, my boss wants me to become a notary so I can handle notarizing all of the official documents myself. Has anyone else been asked to do this for their employer? Is it ethical?

Have you ever asked your supervisor to not include you or involve you with assignments from certain clients? … every time I work with one of our clients which I don’t like, I want to quit on the spot.

What’s the consensus on dress code for a virtual interview? Is a suit too formal? Maybe no tie?

How do we keep leadership from getting so offended and defensive when we professionally and respectfully flag culturally inappropriate work? Oh, the amount of possible Pepsi moments I’ve prevented!

Do you all wear CT shirts with a suit? Or have different shirts for suits?

I have an interview next week and want to vet the new law firm with questions to determine if there’s a good work-life balance, respect for how work is delegated (i.e., attorneys are not routinely asked to do obvious paralegal work), and what overall systems/structures are in place to make it a functional/successful environment. What sorts of questions do you think would get this info and also cut through the usual bs of “we’re a family here” when in reality no one talks to each other?

Anybody actually had any success resolving issues at work that are clearly rooted in bias but because they are microaggressions they are just dismissed or explained away as something else?

Tips for managing an overstepping translator? Behaviors include insisting to file prematurely and answering on behalf of the client without asking the question to the client.

Recently did a drug test and obviously I take meds (dextroamphetamine). Will my new employer flag me? Do I need to provide a doctors note proactively or do I wait or them to ask?

Has anyone else ever dated a coworker?

Honest question: Are you intentionally mentoring anyone who doesn't look like you? And I'm not referring to your randomly assigned counselees. Type Y or N.

Hi everyone! I recently got a new job as a consultant in the public sector space! I need fashion/style help since this is my first office professional role. I signed up for StitchFix to see if they could get me started with a few "back-to-the-office" appropriate outfits. Does anyone have any other suggestions or cautionary tales? I'm looking for a comfortable, polished professional look with a dash of fun/personality. Thank you!

What do you do if the partner who hired you is nice in social settings but awful to work for? And you can’t seem to escape from working for that partner. This partner doesn’t respond to your emails for critical issues that you need input on, doesn’t return your phone calls and voicemails and throws you under the bus in front of the client to blame you for her mistakes. The seniors are too busy. Just joined this firm so lateraling isn’t a viable option.

Just got selected to join the Navy as an officer but not leaving until early November. Anyone from HR have any recommendations on timing for when to tell my HR so they don’t let me go early? Would like to work until the week before I leave.

Any 30+ female around? Would love to chat.

when you preform AP - unrecorded liabilities procedures. If I found a mistake but it is not material - what should I do? Just started and I’m not sure what to do..

Went to a networking cocktails last night with LPs. For some odd reason there were quite a few young attractive women mixing it up, but who couldn’t explain what they did or where they worked.
Turns out the organizer hired models to do the rounds because otherwise “there would be too many dudes”. Maybe I’m getting old but I felt more, not less awkward and uncomfortable 🤦‍♂️

Lost my job in March. I have 12 years of digital marketing experience, 7 in paid and organic SMM. Additional skills include writing, strategy, photography/editing, and graphic design. I’ve applied to over 300 jobs. I’ve landed over a dozen interviews with companies like PWC, ASPCA, The University of Chicago as finalists. Im looking for referrals and/or companies you know to be hiring. Thank you 🙏🏻

I’m listening to my current project’s progress, and not gonna lie, it sounds like a sinking ship, and I’m kind of happy to leave lol

Hi folks,
When do we have to submit POI? Any information?

Is it worth hitting Bicester village? Don’t have a lot to shop. Do the stores (gucci, Burberry, likes) get popular retail store items. I’m only looking to get 3/5 pieces. Will be 12 days in London and currently have 2 days with nothing planned. It’s 1.5 hours one way from my hotel.
Could the time be better used to maybe visit Cotswold or York or some other places?

Anyone bought a Rolex in the past year or so and willing to share some insight into the process? Seems like a joke to get one at retail

Hi! I was offered a full-time Social Media Manager role recently but the job scope seems to be exhaustive! I’m not sure if this is usual so it’d be amazing if you could chime in. I’m expected to be in charge of not only social media management but also email marketing (weekly newsletters), content production & creation, graphic designing, community management, customer service emails as well as blog writing and executing marketing campaigns. Is this the standard?
