Anyone else constantly looking for the next project, job, etc to be “THE ONE”? I feel like I’m always unsatisfied with where I am currently and can’t be proud of any..cont

I wish this rain was snow and my flight was cancelled. Zero reason for us to travel to client site other than physical presence for client. Waste of time and money.

Hey you! Don’t forget:
When the client says it’s manual, it’s likely not

Point out a flaw in the client work to the SM, SM gives credit to the senior consultant.....

I have 2 tickets to Matt and Kim at the Riv on 10/22...client wants me on location so can’t go. Anyone interested? PM me - selling tix at face value - $94.45 for both.

Anyone ever not show up to the client site on Monday? Awoke feeling like crap. 103 fever, aches and pain, and all the great symptoms that makes one just want to lay in bed...

In a niche industry that is very stuck in old ways (not to mention small enough to where I am one of the few minorities), I am wearing my natural hair to all client and internal Zoom meetings to subtly remind everyone to be respectful and mindful of what they say. Be kind, be nice, and show empathy - I know it’s all business most times, but the smallest gestures can mean the world right now. Hats off to everyone on these bowls who are taking a second to speak up in their own ways.

When people talk about wanting to go client-side, I think of the posts I keep seeing like today when 2,500 people were let go from Carvana. Is client-side really better?!

How’s Deloitte SAP practice doing in the WEST COAST? Much Channel 1 client competition ?

Hello All!
I’m in a really confusing and frustrating situation.
We pitch and we win: clients loves creativity, strategies and ideas but they take forever to sign contracts. We currently have 4 clients on hold with approved quotes but not signed contracts. (One of the client is postponing for the past 15 months!!) They are not shopping around, they are not taking any assets or doing anything in house. Just waiting... I can’t tell you how much damage this is doing to the agency.
Any good advice?

I would really like to have a client in the makeup or fashion industry. How can I make this happen? I don't think my current company has such clients.

I have a client who freaks out when they randomly go on our shared documents site and don’t see draft files of our upcoming deliverables. We don’t place our deliverables out for the client to see until we have a first pass ready for review. How would you manage?

Has anyone come up with a fun way to “schmooze” clients virtually? Conference season is coming up and typically we host client dinners and happy hours etc. and it’s a great way to get face time with them. Has anyone put any thought in ways to recreate this virtually? Or other efforts to connect?

We're in crunch time on our project. The overall program requires weekend support from a key technology team comprised only of client resources (the code deployment team). Despite the fact that it's the client leadership requiring weekend support and we are also working every weekend, we the consultants are the ones being treated like we are making them work their weekends and have to deal with all of their crying and complaining. 😀🖕

Donald Trump is the literal representation of a clueless consultant trying to BS his way through client presentation for which he knows nothing about.

Does Deloitte UK accept international transfers from the Project Delivery track? (US based), or is PDM only a thing in the US?

Do you tell your family and friends about which client you’re working for if it comes up in conversations?

If I have to hear the term, "jerry-rig" to describe how the client fucked up one more time...

As a consultant I have done little bit of everything project management, scrum master , etc. How does ur resume look, do you guys/gals have different resumes for different roles.

Anyone has any tips on minimizing shoulder and neck pain? Client site desk doesn't have monitor

(this is my first time in 3 years not having a monitor yes I know I'm spoiled)

Work in consulting as an associate. Was thinking about going to trade school on the weekends to pick up a skill to work another part time job. Not sure what that skill would be yet but looking for feedback: feasibility, pros and cons to working new jobs, opportunity cost of spending my time doing other things. TIA

Anyone familiar with Facebook IC4 and IC5 comp ranges (salary/RSUs) for the Bay Area?

I think I'm done with American men. My experiences with Europeans have been much nicer. But where to meet European guys in NYC?

What would you attribute your success, to date, to? Connections, pedigree, innate talent, working ethic?

Anyone from Cap1 open to chatting about the product manager roles? Would love to learn more and get some resume tips too! :)

The D&AD ad blocker replaces all your pre-roll YouTube ads with award winners from around the world. I watch a lot more ads these days.

Yes I agree. My job is more stressful than anyone else's. Also people that don't travel habitually have less self worth than I do! Also, anyone hook up w a Partner??

How do you try on a watch that’s got 1 years+ wait list? I really want the Tudor 58. It not even sure where to try it on

Will we ever get back to traveling?

Interviewed w/ a partner of a startup by ex-B4 partners. Asked me for all the non-competes during the interview and I told him my clients were confidential but happy to provide later. Was that odd?

Right when I’m about to get lucky I like to declare something my husband won’t agree with. Like “macaroni tastes better when the noodles are cartoon shapes,” because I know he’ll just go with it.

Which is a better option? Both are PaaS companies
Offer A: “cooler” brand, high growth company, better perks, Sr. Associate position for a new, small corp strategy team (most junior in this team)
Offer B: less cool, also high growth but people don’t know as well, fewer perks, Manager position for corp strategy

Pay and office locations are the same. Both have unlimited pto

I’ve just about had it with recruiters today... I just totally lit into one who forgot a phone appointment with me. I have no more time for the flaking, ghosting, and slick sales jobs...

What's going with ORD and LGA today???

Staring at the gym wall, just don’t know what to do anymore. Forcefully admitted my sister to mental facility yesterday, dad is in alcohol rehab center, and milking myself dry trying my best to help my mom with finances during Covid. 2021 gotta be better year to be thankful for

I’m in strategy consulting and want to stay in that space, and I want to build my skillset in this area. What skills are best to learn for strategy consulting and how can I learn them/are there any resources to learn them? Are there any relevant technical skills, or is strategy mostly non-technical skills?

Classically looking for advice and validation.

Anyone else have mini-breakdowns 4-5 times a week during work? I’m in a new city, lost quite a few close friends over the last couple of years, and simply miss going to work.

Exercising has helped, but I don’t know what else I can do besides video call the few people I’m close with. I feel like I’m beginning to disassociate and I don’t know who to turn to or what I can do to ground myself.

For final round onsite interviews that consist of 4-5 rounds of interviews with team members, how are their opinions weighted and at that point is it more to see if they like you or will
