Benefits

Potential offers incoming from Gartner (AE), Salesforce (BDR), and a promising SaaS start up (BDR). Currently an AM at a IT services and staffing org. Want to get away from staffing regardless, but want to stay within technology. Unsure how to rank each opportunity.
Gartner lacks technology but I feel the skills I could learn would be invaluable and be a great resume add. Anyone ever been in the same boat? Or know how the benefits for SF and Gartner stack up?

What are the management consulting firms with healthcare practices that do not require you to relocate to a city with a physical office? Fly to the client M-Th and work from home Fri.

How good are your districts at negotiating contracts on time? Ours expire every two years. At the end of the second year we always end up going into the next school year on an expired contract and work almost the entire school year on that expired contract. It’s not that we are asking for the moon, usually our raise is about the same as the rising price of healthcare, so it ends up being a wash. The workload only increases.The district also made us put in a “no strike” clause in our contract.

Hello other 1st/2nd year analysts- how much have you saved up your first/2nd year in personal savings? (Not 401k)? Trying to gauge if I’m saving enough or too little

Hello Everyone - Looking for advice from Deloitte practitioners! I am a specialist senior at Deloitte, got back from maternity leave in April 2020. I had my offering leader schedule a call with me to notify that I have been rated a low performer because I had 46% utilization and mediocre firm contribution scatterplot. My project scatterplots have been consistently good 5,5(top right) over the last 3 years. Do they not consider these things before rating someone as low? Feeling very low!

Need advice - I currently have 2.5-3 YOE (depending if u count internships) and $180 TC. I’ve recognized the pay is pretty high and industry jobs won’t come near it for my amount of experience. If I stay in consulting another ~2 years and get to Manager level by then, would industry firms be more open to hiring me for a $180-200k role? FWIW I’m mostly looking at healthcare non-pharma.

I’m almost done with my MBA but I’ll have to take out a loan to pay the last bit of it. I’ve paid about $30k out of pocket and I’ll have $18k that I’ll have to take a loan out for. I have a brokerage account that has $10k in it. Would it make sense to pull that money out to pay for the majority of what I have left or to just get a loan? I’m meeting with my FA in the summer but am just curious for other opinions. Keep in mind I make $53k and I have a 401k, Roth IRA, and traditional IRA as well.

Alt Weekend: travelled to Canada for Alt Weekend, bought ticket on DNet, paid with Amex. Now, I got the message that the reimbursement will be "taxable income"!! Why is that?

It’s a cliche, but it’s true - the days are long but the years are short. My younger son is about to put a deposit on college and I’m wondering how I’m months away from having two kids in college, when it seems like they were just babies yesterday. I remember how exhausting those toddler years were, but I miss them more than I thought possible.

Are open toe shoes okay to wear at a Big 4?

Is anyone on here a “social copywriter” by title? Or have you been able to find a gig just writing social content? Doing some research.

I will give you all something to laugh about:
I was yesterday years old when I learnt West New York is not in New York.
Also PSA: if you see a very large 1 bedroom for 2200 only in West New York; don’t get too excited, apply for it immediate worrying this won’t last, and THEN see google maps to realize *sigh*.

Anyone else realize that the only reason people put up with the business model of public accounting is that we all worked together and could complain together, stay up late together all while forgetting that we are working 80+ hours in addition to a commute. Then when the pandemic hit, we opened up our eyes to the actual work itself and how much time we spent at work and getting to and from work? This is the reason why all firms want staff back in the office so they can create that again?

Those who are in abroad, Please let us know how much money you are saving and which country.
It will provide us more insight

Thanks in advance

Just had a coworker in a higher rank than me book us a 3 hour long meeting starting at 6 PM… Maybe I’m crazy, but that’s kind of ridiculous and rude, right? It’s not for an urgent deliverable or anything time sensitive either. How do I raise to him that that’s outside of my working hours and just not necessary?
