Your conversation points for today

I'm just so angry when I wake up after travel and the points aren't updated yet

I don't have car experience but I'm going to buy my first car (used 2018). I don't have a mechanic to help test the car. Is it safe enough if I buy from a dealer with points inspection + low milage (< 30k km)+ clean carfax + contactless delivery? I have funds available to pay in full.

Hilton 🐠 - what are your favorite properties to redeem points? What’s the best deal you’ve seen? Can be anywhere in the world. Interested in Waldorfs or Conrads that I can’t afford to pay in cash.

How long does it take Amex to post points? My latest statement is from 12/28, and I still can’t see the points

How do you deal with a passive aggressive supervisor who regularly points fingers and throws people under the bus?

It grinds my gears that my manager always uses smiley faces and explanation points in his emails.
ae. Hey! The report looks great :) let’s add x and y to the slide! If any edits need to be made I’ll do them tonight :) Let me know if any questions!

Question about inclusion…. I’ve been teaching inclusion for 5 years so I’m still a newb, but a first year coworker of mine said she got points off on her observation because her kids were scattered in the classroom and she was having to move from kid to kid to assist. While I see the point of putting them together for convenience, I don’t agree with this at all! To me this is like singling them out by putting them all together instead of INCLUDED amongst peers. What do y’all think?

Hi Fishes,

Do these 2 points in the JD allude to modelling requirements?

• Prepare transaction specific and marketing materials (teasers, information memorandum, pitch books, corporate profiles, and industry data and analyses)

• Perform in-depth company and industry research supporting specific client engagements and marketing opportunities

Lots of talk about CohnReznick on here lately… let’s address a few points.

1) Yes, our salaries are in line with B4. Happy to discuss specifics with the skeptics.
2) We are one of the few firms still actively hiring people without FDD experience.
3) Our WLB is miles better than B4.
4) Yes, we are paying strong referral bonuses because our practice has literally doubled in the past year.
5) All of the above is due to a strong pipeline and significant growth within the practice.

Anyone going to III points music fest in Miami on oct 21st

Anyone else not getting points / nights for recent Marriott stays? Account activity isn’t working in the app

Any advice on carrying out this transaction?

Whats’s the ideal CV length for UK mid-level roles (4-5 YoE) to engage recruiters?

Is 1 page containing punchy & concise XYZ points preferred in the UK over 2 pages inc. a bit more details of projects/ tasks?

I have been teaching O-G for 20 years. During that time, I have dismissed students because I felt that they didn’t need it anymore. My supervisor wants data points before dismissing students. My question is what data points are used do determine that a child no longer needs O-G at the upper elementary/ middle school level?

I NEED HELP WITH CREDIT SCORE issues: Two months ago my credit score went down by 30 to 40 points due to dad missing credit card payment by a day (i got added to as authorized user on his credit card for me to build credit but now I’m filled with regret). I was devastated by it. This past month I have been making more payments and paid off my aug statement in full thinking it will boost my credit score. But I don’t know why it went down another 10 points. More below:

Had a 2 night reservation at a Fairfield Inn and was bumped. Am a Marriott platinum member and got the points and $100, but only one night at another hotel. Is this policy or should it be 2 nights?

My company’s SOP template has a table of contents and a section at the top where the SOP owner is supposed to add a short statement containing the “Why” of the SOP, meaning a statement about what the SOP is supposed to solve for/ accomplish. A co-worker recently told me that it should also contain a checklist of the 4-5 main points of what the team member should know how to do after reading the SOP…. This seems really redundant to me. Thoughts?

Any thoughts on Sidley's London office? How sharp elbowed are the associates and how much do partners genuinely try and help you develop a career? Bonus points if you can provide insight on how the corporate and finance departments work with specialists on transactional matters. As a final ask, are they genuinely into D&I and flexible working efforts or is this predominantly lip service? Thanks in advance!

This might be philosophical but wanted to understand if we should get satisfied and be happy with what we have or keep striving for more?

Reason I am asking this is - I earn close to 1.5 lakhs every month and if someone had told me this during my college days I would have taken it eyes closed thinking this is more than enough. But today, I am not able to be satisfied and I don't want this to become an affliction so thought to share with others here and get to know the general sentiments.

Anyone have an amazing CPA for freelancers on the west coast?

Lower middle market bros. What’a your comp structure? I will share:
100k$ + 60k$ discretionary bonus

Did anyone left coforge recently? I have to leave by next week, and company asked to courier their laptop back to office.

If we’re not likely to break even with our base this year, independent of BU, does it make sense to leave now for +30-50% total comp vs biting the bullet and waiting for next year? Been here for a little less than a year and failed to negotiate a first full year assured bonus, just had a partial year bonus in 11/21
Some people are saying that’s just the way it is and to wait it out 1-2 years and network more, others are saying otherwise. Would appreciate some perspectives… US Director level

Has any 🐠 here interviewed for a Blue Cross Blue Shield health plan for their corporate strategy team? I would love to reach out for advice if you have. TYIA!

Have interviews with a couple of MBB firms in the next two weeks for generalist positions; currently a new analyst at Deloitte. Would Case and Point be the best use of my time to prep for cases, if I’ve never seriously done cases before? My Deloitte interviews were all high level tech and my computer science major was more than sufficient to complete these.

NYC 🐠! For those waiting to return and sign new leases, do you think there will still be a reasonable amount of deals in august? Or do you think most opportunities will get scooped up before then? Trying to time it right as I don’t want to be in nyc this summer\pay rent this summer but don’t want to miss out and pay more $$$ over a year.

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.

Thinking about moving to Chicago...thoughts? Is chi a good city to live in for someone who’s always lived in suburbs/commuted in? Nyc seems too large scale for me and Boston too small so wondering if Chicago is a good middle ground

Offer for Senior Con with Deloitte’s Org Transformation (Digital/Cloud Enablement) group vs. an offer for Manager with Accenture’s Talent & Org (Cloud Enablement) group - likely doing change mgmt for implementation projects at either.
