No - can you elaborate? We were already sort of straddling Tax and Deals

Word is, those with a deals focus will be transferring to advisory to team more closely with FDD, valuation, CMAAS, etc. Others with a structuring focus will remain in tax.

Does this mean we get paid more? Lol

I think that makes sense as there's a ton of cross collaboration between FDD and M&A tax in my experience.

They will make it a national practice

This is what I heard too. As far as I can tell, this essentially only affects staffing? And we can now move wherever we like?

It isn't happening. Which is good. It was advisory empire building.

It is happening

M&A Tax not happening this year. But P&O is moving in about 2 months. Leaving just HRTS.

M&A tax has never been in advisory. It used to be a national practice until about 15 yrs ago. It isn’t going to advisory now. Restructuring to be closer to a national practice to better align with Deals. Details still being worked out.

The practice will be able to more easily get the right partner to the right client without having to worry about market assignments, which is what Advisory does

Since iOS 14 changes, Facebook ads isn't the same anymore. Why?

A. >75% iOS users denied tracking. They are no longer tracked across websites/apps. Facebook lost its edge.
B. Targeting and conversion tracking aren't as effective anymore.
C. Many advertisers have been migrating their budgets from Facebook to Apple and Amazon ads.

Perhaps I’ve gotten too introspective during the pandemic. Don’t really want to go back for a JD and aside from keeping a roof over my head I’m not very motivated by money. Anyone else have similar ideas?
