As a women myself, I’ve had a hard time working with other women in PA. I find women tend to be harsher on other women than on men.

Women partners that talk down to other women also talk down to the men.

1 woman partner in our office and she is ridiculously snobby and thinks she god’s gift to planet. I don’t have a role model yet, but I know for a fact I don’t want to be her

My theory...you need a certain attitude in PA to make it and not be streamrolled. The women who make it are abrasive and not friendly (understatement). Obviously there’s exceptions here and there.

No that’s not ok either. It’s just sad when a women puts you down, knowing how it’s already hard for us

After reading this post, I grew to appreciate the partners (men and women) at my firm more. They are pretty supportive 🤗

The grass isn’t always greener when you leave PA either... women are just as nasty here in private/industry. Men can be this way too absolutely, but there’s always more drama and hostility when it comes to women. It’s awful!

Everytime I work on the weekend I get into some sort of fight with my spouse. Anyone else get annoyed when their spouse constantly asks you when you’ll be done working, or asks how much longer you have to work. It annoys the hell out of me. I don’t want be working on a Sunday anymore than my spouse wants me to be working. But I have to. I don’t need reminded that I am disappointing my family in addition to working on the weekend. Am I alone in thinking this? Am I wrong to get so annoyed?

Hello guys,

I got an offer with a 60% hike and they asked me to reply to them with my resignation letter by tomorrow morning, only then they would proceed further.
I haven't resigned yet and am waiting for 2 more companies to reply about the offer.
Though after 2 months my appraisal period there so there are chances that my current company can retain me with the amount of offer letter.
So my question is how can I hold the current offer, like any excuse that feels valid & hold offer for 2 weeks.
