Slalom Consulting Discussions

I’m a CPA and am weighing going back for my Masters, maybe an MBA?

Will I get any benefit from going back to get my masters?

I see people post about their in hand offers/ CTC and wonder what wrong am I doing.
As a SCM professional, I'm searching jobs for a year now with no success. I'm even ready to accept a low-ball salary offer/ pay cut due to personal reasons, but nah!
It hurts even more after successfully clearing interviews and then get ghosted by recruiters.
Has anyone faced such situation and how did you overcome it? Need suggestions.

Hello Everyone,

Hope everyone is doing good 😊
I just joined HCL as a Technical Specialist withe the CTC of 13.5 lpa ( 67k is variable out of 13.5 lpa.

How much in-hand salary I can expect per month.

Thank you in advance.

Fellow enterprise tech sales fish, I’m interested to hear your perspective. I’ve been in a rut lately and seriously considering leaving sales. I think it’s primarily fueled by one thing:
After a 6 mo cycle I closed a large deal (4x the average deal size) prior to receiving delayed 2022 comp plans. The deal counts as a 2022 deal. On last years comp plan it would’ve paid out at 10%. This year it pays out at a measly 4%.

How do you/have you navigated your way through and out of these situations?

I’m curious - let’s say you have a role to fill but they are targeting only female candidates to balance out the team. What recruiting strategies can i implement to meet those needs?

Does anyone work in Dubai or Singapore who can give me an idea what you get paid? Thinking of making the move from Norway. Lower/no personal income tax is the incentive - paying 47% 😭

I like consulting but the multiple project workload sucks. I have 5 active projects and I’m barely scraping by on each one. I’m just surviving week by week. I could do such an amazing job on these projects if I had 2-3 instead. Sucks

I’m leaving my job soon but I’m wondering if I should be truthful when I hand in my letter of resignation. There’s a ton of reasons but it boils down to: I’m worth more than they can pay me and I need to pay off these student loans. What should I say?

Any other sober folks in the sales world who can give me some advice? Really struggling to keep up with the office culture when happy hour is impossible for me. 1.5 years sober and want to stay that way.

Has anyone else lost all respect for Jill Stein? She spent the last year trying to convince America not to vote for HRC but is now leading the initiative to recount 😑

HR opinion: Do I have any leverage as a hospital nurse case manager in negotiating earned time? I have 15 years within the organization, left for 10 months to be remote during the pandemic while sorting out childcare as immunocompromised family helped. Now HR is restarting my ET as a new employee. I realize I left, but not on bad terms and I am an exemplar and respected employee. I thought I’d have the upper hand with the nursing shortage but I’m getting the “rules are rules” response. Help!?!

Litigators that transitioned to M&A/PE early on in their career, how did you do it? I have an educational finance background, but no work experience in that area (just some general business consulting) & trying to get my foot in the door…

Hi Fishes,

I have previously worked for Reliance Jio, couldn't withdraw my PF money. How can I get that now ?

$530k HHI, $250k cash on hand, $1.2M investments/retirement. Plan to buy $800-900k house as our first home, but thinking of the best approach given rates today. My thinking is that we (i) put $200k+ down and get a 5/1 ARM. (ii) put everything we save moving forward toward paying down the principal (after maximizing retirement accounts). Should be able to do $100k per year. (iii) If rates go down below 4.5ish % for 15 year fixed, refinance and stop aggressive payment. Thoughts on this approach?

Hi fishes,
Need your thoughts.
I am done with my client interview and it went well but they are asking me to come to gugaon location.
I am from Bangalore location.
I directly said to client that I can't since I have my family here.
When I inform this to my manager he is saying how come u say like this to client.according to kpmg policy u need to travel to anywhere to work.
This is not good right. What should be my reply to the client in such a case and how to handle manager on this?
