Thinking of career move in the next year.
Currently working as a senior in climate change and sustainability (CCaSS) at EY. 7.5 years of total experience in the EHS field (in consulting and insurance also). Current salary of $120k plus bonus. Ideally looking to move into higher salary bracket and work at a company with better pay/benefits than current (eg: better 401 k). What are your thoughts on future career move? Is it good to get into tech or finance? How should I plan my exit? Thank you.

Wanting to switch from healthcare consulting into strategy consulting more generally to learn about other industries. Any advice or anyone who’s done this?

Let’s talk Credit Cards. I have the Chase Reserve but am ready for a new card that has sign on benefits to get a ton of points. FYI not traveling for work anymore - fully remote since 2020. Any suggestions?

I am 6 months pregnant and in the country Im in, I can go on maternity leave right now, keep my full salary, and come back 2 months after the baby is born. I would really like to take this early leave to focus on myself and the baby, get rest.

But I was a new associate and was just promoted to consultant a week ago. I really like my current client. Timing seems bad and Im afraid it will have long term impact on how management sees me, as this means I would be gone 5 to 6 months. Thoughts ?

is consulting the right fit for me? im a senior undergrad with healthcare/consulting background & been interested in consulting because of the opportunity for communication (i love networking/meeting new people), travel, strategy, problem solving, and structure involved. after hearing about the toxic culture/work hours that it carries im second guessing this. what are some other fields i could look into? health tech and healthcare product management are 2 things that seem fitting. how do i pivot

What does it mean to exit from consulting to industry? what are some examples of this in healthcare?

Does anyone one what type of health insurance LinkedIn offers and how comprehensive it is?

Starting at EY as a SM later this month, any notable benefits to take advantage of? WFH stipend? Cellphone? Etc.

I’m a registered nurse who currently works as a charge lead in a procedural unit and do data analysis for our STEMI program. I have 7+ years of experience in healthcare in various settings.

I’m itching for a new career that is more centered towards problem solving/quality improvement/etc.

Do you think there is a place for me in consulting? I haven’t heard of many healthcare providers transition to this, but I’m curious.

The one thing I never got about people deciding Roth 401k vs Traditional 401k is how in the world am I supposed to know what tax bracket I’ll be in when I retire? Does everyone here basically expect to be making a good amount of money when you’re that age?

Currently interviewing with consulting firms (looking to exit my healthcare industry job) and have meet & greets with fellow consultants as part of an interview process. What kind of questions do you recommend asking them and/or the partner during a behavioral interview?

Best US public sector firms to work based on WLB, opportunities, and comp/benefits?

Targeting my next move and I think Deloitte GPS is where I want to land.

Does the IRS $61,000 total contribution limit include IRA contributions? Or just 401k (employer, employee before tax or Roth, and after-tax)?

I tried asking this in my own bowl with no responses, so seeing if other consultants have run into this situation. I’m on parental leave, I got an offer for another firm, great opportunity and pay. How does one go about a resignation mid-leave when you would start the new job before the leave ends? Two weeks notice or just say I am not returning effective the day of the new job? Any things to consider besides potentially repaying the employer healthcare premium?

Anyone from Embark able to tell me about some benefits you have. Like how long is Paternity leave and do you have to be with the firm for a year to use it? Also what health insurance do you have? I saw that Embark fully pays premiums but if it’s a junk insurance company then that’s not so great haha.
Also how often are you traveling / in office? Thanks!

I would love this bowls input on the exit opportunity.
Current: Deloitte Tech Consulting, SC with manager promo extremely likely next year, 155k base, 20-30k bonus
Exit opp: Small T2 Ops group, Manager,180k base, 30-70k bonus, growing practice

T2 benefits are slightly worse, WLB will be worse, but likely more interesting work.

Take the money and run right?

Need some advice on what consulting firms to look into.. I have three years of experience in RCM in doctor offices and am looking to transition into a healthcare consulting role. I applied to Moss Adams and Huron but have not heard anything back

Hi all! I'm a master's (non-MBA) at a top university seeking consulting roles in generalist, healthcare, life sciences...fairly new to consulting and would love know more about where to apply and potentially any referrals. Thanks in advance!

Does anyone have insight on the hiring process for healthcare consultants at moss adams?

Any advice on how to spend less money? I have Mint and know the basics of personal finance but have found it hard to adhere to a budget. Decent income for a recent grad and no crazy debt, but money seems to go so fast.

I allocate enough to meet the 401k match, but have had a hard time building a savings.

Any advice appreciated!

What’s the general consensus on allowing your bonus to have 401k pulled out or no? My guess is mine would be around 12k. We are saving for a house fwiw

Hello! Does anyone know what are some benefits/value of a control tower for portfolio management? Hoping to learn but there aren’t a lot of resources on this.

Is KPMG’s healthcare and government solution line good compared to other lines in-terms of exit opportunity?

What is your per meal reimbursement policy?

Leave or stay? Received strong year end reviews from my project leads and built a lot of trust. Appreciate the flexibility and benefits in consulting. But - I’m not comfortable in a sales environment long-term. Should I leave proactively and build industry experience or wait longer? 8 yrs work experience, only in consulting.

What’s the difference between a Before tax 401k and a Roth 401k? Which is better for young investors ?

Company was acquired - losing benefits and company is attempting a true-up in salary to make up for it. Is it unreasonable to expect the true-up to account for my federal and state income taxes I’ll now have to pay on the incremental salary? For example, let’s say I’m losing $2k in annual reimbursements for phone and internet. This is a reimbursement so it’s tax free. My state and federal tax rate is a combined 37% so I would ask for $2739 to account for the taxes I’ll pay on that

Hello! I have a friend who is an MD and wants to transition into consulting… specifically healthcare consulting. Any good healthcare consulting practices that are hiring? Trying to help him out :).

What’s your employers 401k match percentage and stock vesting percentage?

What type of industry roles would a consultant “generalist” be suited for? I have a lot of experience in tech (MarTech, Data, System Design… no coding experience though), marketing and customer strategy, analytics, product management, process and op model… but I don’t have any speciality or niche. I’m getting bored with consulting. Does anyone have any thoughts on what type of roles would be aligned to a person like me? (I’ve been consulting for 4 years, healthcare marketing prior for 5 years)

I recently got an offer from BCG Doha office. If any fellow fishies working at BCG Middle East could answer tech side questions, that would help my planning a bit better:
- WFH set up reimbursement limit
- Do you get monitors provided for WFH set up
- Phone policy (phone models available, can we use it for personal use etc)
- Laptop policy (models, can you use for personal use: emails, Netflix etc)
