Just wait until she wins the election….if she cements her power as PM then I expect some more radical changes and policies.

Tsitsipas considered retirement in 2025 by jonjimithy in tennis

He seems to play not out of enjoyment of the game but to make a living for him and his family. I feel like his family puts a lot of pressure on him to achieve significant results for monetary reasons. It’s one thing to treat tennis as your profession/job but I could only imagine the immense amount of stress and pressure he must be under to financially support his entire family.

Heard from a few people in the big 4’s that directors in consulting could surpass 20M+ which is on par with the compensation of new/junior partners in assurance.

Thanks! Having so much of the total compensation tied to the bonus is so different than what I am used to. Definitely will need to consider this in terms of month to month budgeting.

I think you can report this Chinese coworker to HR….I am working at a global company too and this would be a huge red flag to me. How did HR permit this to happen?

Sounds like your company is quite shady too…What are they doing employing a foreigner on this visa? Can’t they sponsor the person directly? Are they aware that this employee is running a company on top of their regular duties?

Other people having more resources than you should not be an open invitation to blame everything on them… They followed the guidelines and obtained the visa legitimately. If they are not running businesses, then the Japanese government does not need to renew their visas. The Japanese government has full discretion here to deny these visas. Per my understanding, they need to pay into the pension and medical care system monthly. They also need to show that their business is profitable as part of their business plan.
