Hi,
My wife got an offer from PS for Graphic Designing job.
Designation - Senior Associate Process Solution Level 1
But there is a clause of end date and I am afraid that once this period is over they will fire her.
Is this a standard practice in PS?
HR and Director have assured her that this is a practice in PS and she will be converted into Full Time Employee after this period.

Should she join?

"It slows down my internet"...Works all the time
My roommate is in the background and want to respect his confidentiality
I don’t turn it on with one simple excuse- sorry I don’t feel comfortable so I will not turn it on. No one has even challenged it. That’s work culture that don’t do what makes you feel uncomfortable.

I told my manager once I couldn’t go on camera because I wasn’t dressed. And that’s the truth.
‘Sorry not sorry, I look like shit’

Sorry I was on mute, can you repeat that?
Never join video, never offer a reason, no one has ever asked.

Ditto. Same here.
Don’t make an excuse, just don’t turn it on.

Teams drops more frequently when video is used and I’m trying to maintain the integrity of the rich discussion - Or just “Teams”
Bandwidth issues - kids are back on school
Internet down - I had to join via mobile using data
I have gone on video for a grand total of 5 meetings since lockdown 😊
It’s 6 am and if you can’t appreciate my schedule, I can’t appreciate your desire for video calls.
Tell them your camera is on you just work better in the pitch black
If it’s a Webex meeting, dial in via audio and say for some reason your Webex couldn’t connect..that way no one can make you put video coz you’re not on the Webex.

I've actually had times where I try to turn my video on in Zoom and it reads some sort of message about how my webcam isn't connected. Ever since then it's been my go to excuse

I haven’t had a haircut yet and the only hat I have is MAGA.
I cover mine with black tape, then turn it on so they can see that "it's not working"
