Plenty of excel-based add-ins won’t work. Compatibility issues with some less popular analytics tools

I’m doing it, I’d rather use Mac for personal use. Not as easy as PC but doable

I got a MacBook Pro. I love it. Unless you’re going into heavy financial modeling role and plan to be practicing a lot of in-depth excel use (and no, that does not include much of anything besides IB/PE - consulting “models” that reach their limits at index/matching will work fine), you’re fine with a Mac. You’ll get a work computer when you graduate anyways from your employer, so pick a laptop YOU want. Don’t skip out on a dope laptop just because you need to use a VPN to access crystal ball for one group project. Just my two cents (also competed my BBA with a MacBook and had no regrets).

Received an offer from SpaceX to do BA work. Similar responsibilities, lower salary, higher COL, leaving gf and friends currently. But it's SpaceX...I guess? Any advantages to this offer?

What's your favorite non-airline/hotel credit card? I need a new one, and was curious what my consulting peers prefer (aside from Delta Amex, Marriott Visa, etc.).

Hey everyone! I’m looking to make the jump into consulting. I only have 4 months of experience in my current role since graduating in December. What are the entry level consulting roles I should be targeting? Some companies have roles called entry level consultant but some companies like McKinsey only have Business Analyst listed as entry level . Are these two basically the same type of role?
