Has anyone actually looked at the math, calculated, and compared a freelance day rate of about 1-1.2k, booked for whatever % of the year, versus a full time staff salary of say, 200k… at what numbers do they even out when you factor in taxes, health insurance, paid vaca time etc? Hard to say which is more lucrative with the variables, but, any insights?

I’m expecting to go on maternity leave this summer, but I hate working at my current company. The work is uninspiring, the people are mediocre and I feel myself torn between quitting and finding a new job, but possibly losing paid leave, OR, sticking it out and taking mat leave then quitting. Any advice or insights?

Ultra minimalists: what are you carrying for a wallet and in your wallet?
I have a slim wallet but thinking of reducing further.
Driver's license and 1 cc are the bare minimum.

But I keep wondering about:
Auto insurance card
Health insurance card
A $100 bill for unforeseen emergency

But perhaps I don't need them?

Does anyone use one of those phone case minimalist wallets?
What do you have in it?

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.

EY, question about utilization. If we hit 40 chargeable hours for the week, does charging time to admin/auth-proj. impact utilization in any way? I’ve only been logging chargeable hrs in GTE...

Wrapping up my masters in marketing degree at northerstern university and graduating in Dec. Did my summer internship at 4as. Wanted to know which agency’s are hiring for strategy roles in Jan/Feb.

I am an IT manager at a small manufacturing company that is in the commercial aerospace and DOD manufacturing space. I manage everything IT and have one other person and an intern currently for around 250 employees. I have been there for just 15 years and it’s stressful. I don’t feel like I am paid enough as now I have NIST 800-171 and CMMC to deal with as well. I am paid with bonus at $120k a year. I have started looking elsewhere because I am just not happy anymore and underpaid for what I do.

My ECD constantly talks over me when I try to explain something. I can barely get a sentence out and it’s super annoying.

Hi all, I'm sure it's not only me who've gone through this but, how do pick back up yourself after Big4 rejection? I'm a Grad Student, MS

It's not like it's the biggest thing in the world but I've reached the SuperDay, I felt like my interview went well but I'm an international student who is not on a STEM course and would need sponsorship after one year, I felt that might have impacted the decision? ( I put it in my initial application, so going through it was surreal).

Probably a silly question - finally in a position where I can buy my first Rolex. Anyone know how difficult it is to get a jubilee/fluted blue dial 36mm DJ at an AD?

People in this bowl should stop referring sub to newcomers. They’re likely not getting one if this is their first Rolex

First luxury purchase question: I’m looking to buy the Seamaster 300M 007 (titanium bracelet) as my first $$$ watch. Does the fact that this is a popular watch under limited production mean that price negotiation with an AD is impossible? Obviously have no purchase history, so that won’t help. Would appreciate any input!
