Nip it in the bud. Get to management before your partner does.

What about them can’t you stand? Just curious.

@sc1 I think that is a really important point to remind ourselves of, and maybe even help us speak up and ask/clarify misbehavior. I automatically assume I am the one that’s wrong, so I shrink myself instead of asking, let's talk about that.

FT or FL? Been there for freelance. It's such a drag. I would try to communicate immediately. Don't let things fester.

FT

My advice would be to try having an open conversation with your partner about your working styles and preferences. Setting clear expectations can help. If things don't improve, consider documenting specific issues and discussing them with your supervisor for support. If it's just a personality difference adn they're not doing anything problematic, just try to focus on their positive qualities and tell yourself it's not forever!

The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
Stern is way more than a finance school. Given its location, do you want to spend your 2 years in a rural area or heart of Manhattan? Location is almost everything for business school. (I have a friend in Cornell that frequently travels about 5 hours to NYC for events.)
