What's more important for business longevity?
Value your customer's needs or your employees sanity/ mental wellness?

The company I work for clearly value the customer more and I feel that it's not aligned to my personal values :(
It makes me wonder if I'm the "crazy" one to believe the company should value their people first?

Wondering what the comp is for SC’s & M’s at Canadian firms? All these American numbers are making me feel very underpaid...

Hi BNY employees,

How hard is ITIL 4 foundation exam compared to PMP and AWS CCP? Debating whether I should take training classes or just study the book. Ty!

For expert witnesses/lawyers

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?

Looking for feedback, I'm updating my resume and I'm wondering at what point should I start removing past work experience. I've heard anything older than 10 years should go?

Anyone else struggle with discipline?

I know what my goals are. I know that I need to work out and eat healthy to achieve them. But somehow I still choose to be a couch potato on my free time.


Any advice?

Hi All- I heard IBM is selling GBS division as Kyndryl. Now how wise is the decision to join IBM now. Please suggest. Thank you!

Did your agency give people the day off today for National Day for Truth and Reconciliation? And either way, which agency?

What is senior consultant salary in Accenture with 10yrs experience??

I got offers from PragerM, UHY, and PKF. I think I made my decision but wanted to see if anyone had any insight of them. Would you not choose one for one reason or another? Or is there one that stands out and would jump on immediately? Thanks all.

For anyone who transitioned to fund accounting at a top tier fund, how big was the adjustment and learning curve? I have 2 years of audit experience and 1 year of deal advisory experience

Anyone here who started in a general corporate or commercial trans group that later transitioned to a more specialized group (M&A, funds, financing, etc.)? If so, what made you switch and are you happy with the change/what has your experience been like?

Hi All,

What is the advantage and disadvantage of working in SAP labs as external worker

Amazon
Can someone help me with the salary I should quote for the position of a Business Intelligence Engineer at Amazon, with 4 years experience?

“I feel like I’m the stupidest person here”
“You are not stupid. You literally work at one of the top consulting firms in the world”
“I literally got a 6% in one exam during undergrad”
“Well damn I guess you are stupid”

So, some of my co-workers simply said that they want to go ahead and start something or start looking elsewhere (career change) because they don't know how much it will last at the pace we are going in regards to case intake and pay out. Should I start panicking or simply start looking elsewhere? They even they even told me if I was looking elsewhere or planned on doing so also. I found it weird in a way.

Why are people not good at ending zoom calls? I feel like I’m always the person who throws in the closing statement (I.e, ok well sounds good is that all? Have a nice day! This was helpful thanks Karyn..looks like we’re at top of the hour already) 🤦🏻‍♀️

Can anyone send me invites/codes to the EY and KPMG bowls?

(When calling a colleague's cell with no notice) "You caught me in the middle of my nut." 😳

I’ve been leading a massive project by myself for the last year almost and my boss torpedoed my last round of meetings: “oh we don’t need to socialize this, I’ve been doing it, let’s just kick it off.” Okay. So turns out, no one fucking knew and now because we had one meeting instead of two, the people we met with aren’t even the ones doing the work, and they’re not telling the ones who are supposed to do the work about it. So I now need to go back and do more meetings.

“What do you guys see...a mouse or a blue screen”

“There are so many layers of Daddy. Book coming soon. How to get one, how to be one, how to keep one!”

“I just want to see her cry” — People! Wtf!

The division I work at seems to have some weird shady Ora’s about it, unexplained spending, intentional lack of raise’s, and pay scales that are all over the map. Do I go above my supervisor to bring this to attention or do I just Run! Problem is I like my coworkers enough to not want to see them taking it in the dirty end if they do a corporate review?
What to do, what to do?

“Bad news, we’ve had to eliminate the position that we were supposed to finalize your promotion to. Good news, your current position is still available and the prestige of your current role is now increased”
Not the money, not the title, bonus or anything, but oh the prestige.

Recent client discussion (on a million + dollar dispute over secured FF&E).

Client: we need to do some thug shit to them.

Me: I don't typically recommend thug shit as a litigation strategy. Here's my thoughts...

Client: well I guess we can do this legit. Interesting...
