Any Kearney partners here? How is being a Kearney partner different to being a partner at its competitors? Are they a cohesive and collaborative bunch? Are you concerned that the firm may disappear in the next few years?

Asking for a friend who is considering a move as a lateral partner. TIA!

Hello everyone,

I will be joining
EY India by the end of this week in the PAS Workforce Advisory. The HR told me that it's going to be WFH for some time and wasn't very clear on when the offices might resume.

Can anyone please give me a pessimistic and optimistic estimation of when we might be required to move back to office?

I need to move to a different city, so it would be really helpful if you guys could support me with this input.

Thanks

Is it silly to want to feel valued by my Partner/Practice Leader?

He rewards me well rating/comp-wise, gives me a lot of latitude etc but OTOH I constantly get blown off for check-ins, multiple emails ignored, excluded from some conversations that might be relevant for me, etc.

Maybe it’s just normal Partner behavior and I should grow a thicker skin, but generally feel emotionally disconnected from him and that my portfolio of work is not integral, or is an afterthought, to the practice.
