It depends on what you are trying to do. The Fed carries a lot of weight so if you want to work with some great economist from around the world and you are early in your career then I would say go for it. But if you are already established then perhaps look else where. The work is interesting but in talking to some of previous research analyst the Research area tends to be pretty siloed even within the department with economist hoarding analyst even when there is down time and work to do elsewhere.

First - thank you so much to this amazing group for all the encouragement and advice! I now potentially have 2 offers (both verbal) at this time. Both amazing companies. I have 2 questions:
1. I have a month's vacation planned for end of this year. I didn't mention it during the interview process (it was not intentional). Should I mention this to the recruiter when they come to me with the initial offer?
2. Some tips for salary negotiations please?

Should you let a company know you've continued interviewing (they're asking for an update on any final offers/final rounds) while they're taking long to make their final decision.

I'm actually still interviewing other places of course and think it would be good to mention but idk how to say it.

Thanks

Wanted to know if its the same across Deloitte, PwC and other Consulting firms - the quadrant for good ratings
Even if you deliver exceptionally, that is just 1 of the 4 quadrants in which you'll be judged - and it may not be enough to get a good bonus/hike
You need to prove in the other 3 quadrants as well - like generating revenue, certifications,what you are offering to EY in terms of knowledge sharing or training, etc.
