I prefer IAD, someone sneezes in Idaho and EWR has delays

I prefer IAD but they have some pain in the ass shuttle system from international terminal back to baggage claim that takes an extra 30 mins. Uncertain if EWR has

helpful

I’ll need to fly domestic to reach IAD first before taking my international flight and same on my way back. How does the shuttle work in that scenario

IAD is perfectly fine! I don’t love the people mover bus things (they take forever) but outside of that pretty fine airport. Never have had an issue with customs and stuff.

EWR is in Jersey land which alone...

EWR sucks mainly because it’s New Jersey but also the airport is terrible unless you fly United

For international flight I prefer EWR, quicker to navigate and easier to connect. Also better lounges
I used to live in DC, and IAD is completely fine but people mover when you land takes forever

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.

Our avg rev per client is $2500, with a lot of single projects @ $500. Does it makes sense to increase our prices?
