What’s your opinion on “relating” with coworkers? I’ve been on a tough project with a few peers for the last six months, and one of them likes to come to me to complain and rag on the other people on the project. I don’t think they’re necessarily intending to be malicious and just want to seem cool and relatable, but I’m very hesitant to participate or validate them because it feels unprofessional.

I don’t engage in stuff like that. I don’t say anything about a co worker unless it’s positive.

Gossiping at work is a time bomb

Has anyone made the transition from non-profit and small firm practice to federal government, big law, in-house?

Need career advice. Trying to break into a finance role, preferably an Analsyt role but I have no transferable experience.
