Bain & Company Any NYC consultants who live outside the city proper? Like my commute would be 90min on the train if I work there. Once travel resumes, would this be an issue other than the M and F flights? I’m pretty productive and have no issue cranking out products on the train even if it’s later at night. Curious if teams staffed on local projects work at the client site after dinner or go back to the home office? Pre WFH experiences of course.

Hello!
I’m a senior graphic designer with close to a decade in the industry with some agency experience. I’m wanting to dive into more of a surface pattern design role and wanted to know if anyone knows or has any leads for any hybrid roles in/surrounding Orange County, CA or fully remote! I have a portfolio that I can share as well.

I really don’t see many of these on linked in so I figured it’s best to speak to someone who works with or is in this type of role

Thank you!!

I have an interview with Korn Ferry for an associate principal role and am curious about others’ experiences have been with work-life balance here. Also, I have an idea of what I should be compensated in this type of role, but any insights on how they pay compared to others would be helpful. Are you traveling during the pandemic or have client interactions been virtual? Lastly, if you are a consultant here, are you on billable hours? My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.
