A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Did they at least get a 1-slice per person pizza party?

Worse.

A turning point came when junior bankers were called to a pizza gathering in Chicago, expecting a reward for their hard work on multiple deals. However, the meeting took an unexpected turn when managers criticised their efficiency, implying they needed to do more despite already working extensive hours.
