depends on the culture and the type of relationship you have with people. if they open up to you easily and people in your team "all add each other" - then yes.
I have had teams where everybody added each other and it was "normal". in other teams people were ok with twitter, but not with facebook.
Then we had contractors I got along with and they have me on IG and snapchat, but not elsewhere.
cheers bro
This is an idiotic question- what's the upside?? It's not like you'll be able to point to being facebook friends with your bosses son to avoid getting fired one day. The only two outcomes are either you friend him and nothing happens (neutral) or you friend him and he thinks its weird and tells your boss (bad). so no
this has opened my eyes
Assuming the boss is an okay dad and actually likes his kids (some don't), I think it's literally the exact opposite.
>"what's the upside??"
Have you ever heard the phrase "old boys' club"? How do you think that phrase came to be exactly?
If I were close friends with my boss's son, I would 1000% be getting preferential treatment. Assuming the boss thinks his own firm is reputable, he wants his son hanging out with ambitious people, so should encourage the relation. He probably wants his own son to do finance anyway, so if you're seen as a contemporary of his son you will probably benefit from some sort of positive subconscious association. Worst case you probably get the occasional invite to a ball game or out on the boat over the weekend (seriously).
It's by no means "fair" - but favoritism happens all the time.
There's definitely upside if you're not socially incompetent.
I have fucked one of my MD's daughter before knowing he'd be my MD.
that's hot
She was too
I would recommend developing some EQ and coming back to this one chief
Let him decide to friend you. Don't initiate. LinkedIn is fine; it's still friendly without the dive into personal lives. If your FB is filled with non-business-appropriate shenanigans, forget it.
This is such a retarded question I can't even believe I'm actually reading this. As if this were some sort of monumental decision that could impact your life or death. Literally nothing is to be gained from being 'Facebook friends.'
No.
