A friend of mine at FCB was told they “couldn’t go above $110k, as a corporate policy.” Until my friend threatened to take another offer and FCB outbid it at $140k.

So “good” is relative and you’ll be lied to until you have leverage.

Does this help?

I replied to someone’s snarky remark that didn’t add anything to the conversation and they deleted it. So now it looks like I replied negatively to my own comment. Which is objectively funny.

Hi fishes,

This annual appraisal I have got a good % of appraisal increment on my salary but I was not promoted to a senior developer (although I have been mentoring a junior dev in my team and been part of building the project by implementing new technologies and tweaks) and my total YoE is 3.5+ years. What could be the reasons? What should I do now?

Thanks in advance!!

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?

Currently in the consulting practice, looking to make a shift to industry. Have 1 YOE in consulting (finance transformation) and 3.5 YOE in audit. Don’t want a traditional accounting role but really just want to enjoy life and not be on call almost every evening. Would like something FP&A focused. Any ideas? TC 130k

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
