Anyone go from MBB/T2 to MBA school and do something OTHER than return to consulting / go for high finance? Curious what your return on making that decision is and if it’s ever worth going if you’re already in consulting. Seems like most non-Consulting or IB jobs you could just skip the MBA.

Hi guys,

I switched 20 days back to Optum. I have 7 years of experience working as a full stack Engineer, who is passionate working on both front end and back end on latest technologies. But my project is working only on back end with 10 years old tech stack. There is no front end work at all. What should I do?
I don't like working here at all, but I am not sure whether moving out again in a month will give bad Impression on my resume. Hence please give me advice on this situation

Is it weird that I get annoyed whenever my boss subtly implies that I should apply what I've learned in my graduate program to work? Being that the company didn't provide any type of tuition reimbursement nor did I receive any type of pay raise after completing my degree? There are many other factors as to why I feel this way (no promotions in past couple of years, entire team leaving job, having conversations about growth opportunities but nothing becoming of it each time).

Can anyone help me understand what c9 grade means in NatWest job grade? what are next two grades after c9?

I currently work in Transactions Tax but I am keen to move into Corporate Finance or FDD.

I dont have any prior Audit experience so I am just pondering how realistic my aspirations are given my tax background. Can anyone advise as to what would be the best route of transition?

Thanks

Hi everyone, I'm eager to get some B.A or Project experience, having recently achieved my certification in Agile Project Management and I’m looking for new opportunities as a Project Administrator or Coordinator.

I have an offer from Principal Global Services. How is the company culture? Is it better than most other companies? How about growth opportunities?

Dear friends

Help me finding a job in development sector. I'm interested in Consulting space. Going through a rough phase and empty pockets have taught me a great lesson. Being unemployed wasn't a choice but mandatory to look after my family.
Since, everything has reached to it's pace, I'm ready to pull up my socks for new assignments.
Happy to have a quick conversation on career guidance and also shaping my career ahead.
I could see people from prestigious organisations are here. Pls help.

If I want to go M7 to get a shot at MBB (because my chance of getting into M7 is very slim as of now without a referral 😅), should I say that in my essay (particularly the “Why [M7] essay part?)

At what point does the value of a degree fall off? I'm in my early 30s, and have five years of experience, and work on a very theoretically interesting project. I believe I'm on track to promotion in the next year. So, I could put in a year of full time school to check the box off, but I'd be sacrificing hobbies and social life (not to mention cost). Is this FOMO or is there real opportunity here?

Do people working in IB, PE, Consulting, etc. get any financial aid when applying for top MBA programs (M7 or T15)?

I'm a 2022 MBA pass out from one of the second gen IIMs

I would appreciate your perspective.
I am currently working on my MBA in a professional evening and weekend program at a highly accredited university. I am thinking about transferring to a much smaller private online program, specifically because they offer a concentration in organizational health, which directly builds on my doctoral research. Does great depth and specialization outweigh the value of a highly respected generalist degree?

Do you think marriage is necessary? Why do we need the law to regulate the relationship? Isn't being committed emotionally enough? Would like to get different perspectives from both women and men.

Doing a little reflecting and I realized I've always fumbled opportunities with potential dates. Either I didn't make a move when I should have, or I waited too long and the moment passed. Any advice to prevent this?
