This great resignation thing is REAL lol
Hi all. I am trying to determine if I am being compensated fairly. I am a tax manager (about to start my second year as manager) and have been with EY since staff 1. I was promoted to manager in June 2020 (during covid) and received a 7.5% raise. The class above me has mentioned they received much higher raises during their promotion years. My base salary is now approx. 97K. Any insights would be extremely helpful. Thanks!

Hello! Question for anyone that works at Google if I have hit my 3 applications per 90 days can I still apply to an additional role through a referral link? Or will I have to wait until the 90 days is up? Actually asking for a friend that doesn’t have this app 😊 thanks in advance for any insight.
Agile project delivery - Fact or Fiction?
The places I’ve worked at, as much as they say they delivery projects via agile, rarely achieve this (mostly waterfall with a small sprinkling of agile words thrown in for good measure).
Google / Facebook (Meta) / Amazon / Tesla / Apple / anyone else - please tell me that agile project delivery exists (and how have you made this possible in your company?)
Thank you.

From a strictly ethical standpoint, businesses do have an obligation to cut ties with countries/companies/groups that are hurting others.
Well, supposedly it's the government's thing. Private companies don't necessarily have a hand in government policies. It would be ideal to boycott Russia but I'm afraid of generalizing the take on all companies based there.

Ha, Russian. What about the Chinese that are letting it happen?
What about the Chinese that will end up being the next to take over Taiwan
Too early to tell, I think they've been preparing for it for quite some time so I'm not sure cutting ties would have any effect. It might hurt less for Russia than for the company doing business in Russia.
If the company only has Russian clients then perhaps, it's not wise to cut off ties immediately and inflict self harm. But if Russian companies are the vendors and there are other competitors, then it should be an easy switch. Companies swap vendors and partnerships all the time. Not saying it's easy but very much a common part of business relationships.
Yes, cut ties. Make the Russian people understand they can’t continue supporting Putin. Check if your 1st tier vendors have their own connections to Russian companies too, and ask them to cut ties as well.
I dont agree. I work with a lot of russians. They dont support the war either.
Also, some of my friendliest and kindest friends are americans. Is it ok that their livelihoods be affected just because their country is the most war mongering and war profiteering country in the world?
Tbh, i dont know what the answer is. US is a war economy. It contributed a lot to the growth of their economy and to the luxuries americans enjoy.
Having said that, US also does a lot of business globally. So even though im not american, I do enjoy some of those money as my clients are americans.
These blood money flows around the world.
Hmm, where do you work right now?
I think it's definitely worth bringing up at work, but it all depends. Low level companies are often tied to these distributors, but I feel the larger companies have a moral responsibility to put that additional pressure on Putin.

You should cut the ties if possible.
If countries starts cutting ties with countries that starts war, then US would be the first on the list
