Compensation: NYC vs Chicago, how does it compare?
I am 63 years old and have 30 years of Collections management experience working in banks . I currently have an individual contributor role job making $110,000 per year . Our office is only 5 people. I report to the owner . I've been here 3 years. I recently received a job offer of $110,000 for a Collections Manager for a Debt Collection law firm. They have a 401K plan but no match. My current job is very low stress , casual dress, and a very easy job. Is this new job worth the move ?
Our VP mandated that all cameras must be on for every single internal Zoom call. No one is happy. We’re supposed to be hybrid now, but this feels like a passive-aggressive way to make sure we’re sitting rigidly at our desks in full business casual at home. Was never like this when we were fully remote. Is this a reasonable expectation for a modern workplace?
I’ve started blocking focus time on my calendar and protecting it like a meeting. It felt awkward at first, but it’s helping. What’s one small productivity habit that actually works for you?
While travlng for work, I got sick & had to miss a planned excursion. Later, at dinner, I was eating bread because my stomach was still upset. A coworker joked in front of the group that maybe I had drank too much. The comment bothered me because it wasn’t true, & it felt dismissive. This isn’t the first time this person has made teasing comments, but this one felt different because I was clearly not feeling well. How have you handled coworkers whose humor comes at someone else’s expense?
Weird question (I'm IHC at a pubco) - Fidelity messed up with something about my 401(k). It took multiple months and phone calls with them, but at the end of the day, I got totally screwed and admittedly lost it on the phone with them. Fidelity then reported me to my company, so now going through an HR process (even my boss thinks it's a little ridiculous). Fidelity shared the transcript and recording of these calls with my company...are they allowed to do that?
It's the exact same
NYC is higher.
Chicago is pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty good
Second exact same
