Bain & Company Discussions

I prepared a presentation for an interview with a sales leader, it went well and I was offered a final interview with regional manager. The sales leader I interviewed with gave me a bunch of feedback, but said to find out information about tech stack, which I for some reason, didn’t consider. I come to find out that deep, hidden within the website of the hypothetical client, they use the service already. Do I roll into the final interview and play dumb or do i present and then come clean?

As an experienced, SHRM certified HRBP , I would just like some feedback on your opinion of the differences in the roles between an HRBP an HR Manager besides the obvious that the manager should have direct reports. I am an HRBP and work in step with 3 HRM’s. They all 3 just got out of cycle raises of between 5-20% 😳 and I received nothing. I am quite aware of our HR code that salary is confidential but I was told about this. Would you be looking for other employment? Or stay?

My supervisor gave me 8hours of AWOL because I couldn't show up one day because I was under anxiety. I have gave him letters from psychiatrist,psychologist that I'm passing through this. He didn't care and gave me an AWOL. I want to leave my job because my department is very toxic but I don't want to leave having that on my records.
If I move to another job later on (private or federal) this 8 hours of AWOL will show up?

How do I leave my role as someone on the talent team. I am on a small recruitment team of only a few people, who connect daily. I am also responsible for sending out updates tracking new hires and upcoming leavers (aka I would be on this list if i decide to leave). If I am looking to leave my company, considering all of these things, how do I do it in the least awkward, most professional way possible? I want to put in at least a two week notice, but will continuing my work after that be weird?

I work as a worker’s compensation adjuster and I cannot seem to get the hand of loss of time. Been in the same role for a year. Any piece of advise? I have made several improvements but it feels like I’m dragging it out. Last question is how do you manage claims that you have not handle for months and you’re too scared to do anything.

Can anyone refer me for open ensemble health jobs?

Anyone here familiar with the medical records field reviewer positions at Change Healthcare? Looking to get a little more info on schedule, workload, and pay specifically. TIA!

How can I get my *micro* manager off my back? I know I haven’t been doing the best work this quarter, but emailing me all damn day isn’t going to help me do better, I do know that.

Does anyone have experience with payfactors? Looking for a salary benchmarking tool that is not crowdsourced.

CCTC: 30 (29+1) at a Product based mid-level start-up.

Any possibility of postponing the LWD by the manager here in CGI, even we have not taken any leaves?

Might get an offer from a big pharma company for a senior manager role. Any thoughts on what compensation I should ask for? Glassdoor has a wide range. I have 5 YOE.

EYP and Strategy& fishes, what sort of work do you do in the Life Sciences space (specifically Big Pharma)? And what sort of exits into industry have you seen your former colleagues make?

Anyone in TAAG? How are the hours? Have you seen anyone transfer from TAAG into core FAAS?

Has anyone taken the Amtrak/Acela in the NE recently? NY to Bos? Are there any social distancing protocols in place onboard or packing like sardines for $$$?

What would be the best time to let my team know that we are closing down? It will happen next month, so I figured that in about a week or two should be good enough to give them a chance to start looking elsewhere.

Can the group members please share their experience about the CFE exam? How many days of preparation does it require? What are some of the useful study resources?

Hi! Excited we have a space finally :)

How to overcome a breakup. I'm heartbroken 😭

I am not sure who needs to hear this but exactly one year ago, I was at my lowest point in life. Today, I’m the happiest I’ve ever been. Life has truly been a rollercoaster these past few years for me.

I am sharing this to tell you that no matter what you’re feeling right now, it won’t last. Even the happiness I feel right now, I’ve had that stripped from me multiple times. That is LIFE. We have the good and the bad.

Hang in there if times are bad. If things are good, prepare to lose it too.

Where do you need the most support in your RP practice?

Any brand/model recommendations for stylish and functional thermos bottles?

Tax - can I remain on the manager level permanently? Do they start to give below rating year on year since you are an experienced manager now and it was expected out of you so measuring against new managers/peers would be difficult?

Has anyone been to or knows about those glass igloos that you can stay in - I think in Finland? - to watch the Northern Lights? My dream is to see the lights and want to do it in the best and most magical possible way
