Anyone had success using a career or life coach who’s helped management consultants and have recommendations? Been in B4 consulting 10 years and facing burnout just as going up for MD after SM for 4 years. Looking to challenge my own path and assess my options. Feel like the ground is shifting.

Thinking about switching from a big 4 to a mid-sized firm. For those that have done it, was the culture change significant/what was your experience like?

Hey there, just got a mail from a recruiter at Bain to discuss a potential specialist consultant opportunity. Any tips on what the interview process might be like , indicative comp and WLB? I have 7 years experience in the releavnt field (Acc & Big 4) so will be joining laterally.
TIA

For those in big 4, how much time between accepting an offer and start date have you been able to ask for? Is a month feasible/how should one phrase it? Two weeks just doesn’t feel like enough with this heavy burnout/having to wrap up deals at old firm

What are the rankings for top consulting firms in the human capital space? (Big 3, big 4, +++)

Has anyone transitioned from Big 4 Tax (M&A/International) to a law firm before becoming a qualified lawyer.

I.e Law background/LLB but no legal experience

Looking for a Deloitte recruiter (or referral for bonus) in the Memphis area. Currently work for another Big 4 but am moving soon to that area. Only have two years experience. Thanks.

I have a return offer from a big 4! Thoroughly enjoyed the experience as an intern and have no complaints. Would love to go back.

However, a bit confused if I should try and recruit with MBB’s or if I should accept the big 4 offer already and take the sign on bonus?

Would it be a blunder to NOT try recruiting with MBB’s ? Besides the monetary aspect, what are the other things I’d have to think about?

Anyone work in the OGC of the Big 4? What was your experience?

Salaams!

Anyone hiring Program Managers (Technical or Non-Technical) or Engagement Managers? Currently with Big 4. Please let me know!

YOE: 6-7
Location: Washington DC area

I just switched jobs from a boutique management/strategy firm, to B4 business consulting. I can already tell this was the wrong career move. What should I do?

What is typical signing bonus offered by MBB if you are recruited as an experienced hire into their Manager or Senior Manager level (coming from Big 4)? For core strategy practice, not niche areas.

Hey guys! What is the standard CTC for a non-qualified in Big 4 currently with 5 years of experience?

Has anyone in big 4 asked for a transfer to a different country? (I.e Canada). Currently debating whether I should transfer with the firm or apply for express entry myself.

What are thoughts on Rotman with $$? Debating between that and just wait another year for T15. International student looking for jobs in Canada, 720 GMAT, 3 yoe at big 4

I’m a manager in PwC’s human capital practice. I’m getting recruiting messages from the other Big 4, as I imagine most of us are. I’m interested in hearing about human capital consultants who went from PwC to one of the other firms, as well as people who came from one of the other firms to PwC. Happily ever afters as welcome as horror stories here. Thanks!

In talks with A&M to come over to their TAG practice from EY FDD as senior associate. Base salary is very competitive on top of the alluring "bonus" structure. 2 questions:

1. Do they normally offer sign on bonuses?
2. Is their any disadvantage between A&M FDD compared to B4 FDD in terms of exit ops down the road? Trying to look 5 years down the line

Would appreciate any insight!

If you’re apply from a big 4 to another for the same job you do, how do you explain to recruiters why you want to be there? It’s basically the same place…

What are the healthcare options like in India? I'll be needing regular care and I'm not sure what the insurance providers are and if care works differently in general.

So I've heard alot about rescinded offers. Does this happen after everything is signed?

I've recently gotten an offer and I've signed it, just planning out my notice period so I was curious

I work in a state where abortion was previously banned and is now still pretty heavily restricted. Lately I've heard a lot of really negative and hurtful comments about patients who are picking up contraceptives, and about people who are pro-choice. I don't usually bring my political views to work, and now I feel like I honestly can't say anything without making work really uncomfortable for myself (I'm pro-choice). What should I do?

I am having final rounds with consulting firms and corp strategy soon and I am looking to do a couple of cases with experienced caser (25+) in the next couple of days. Anyone wants to practice?

Anyone have book/podcast recommendations on creative leadership? Or on leadership/managing in general?

How to make a leap from UI/UX into product design? What skills should a PD have? With 5 YOE and I still feel like a junior. I have a good eye for visual design, but I'm a bit scared of the business strategy, analytics and testing part. Where do I start to learn those skills? I know the basics of testing and conducting workshops, but I don't know how to develop those skills further. My company focuses on UI and I haven't been lucky to land a PD job. Do companies really look for all those skills?

"We hear your responses to our anonymous pulse survey, and we understand you all overwhelmingly think our team structure org needs to change. We understand it's not necessarily working well—but here's why we're NOT going to change it."
Why ask us if you really don't care?

I delete all the words before the one word or letter I want to correct. 🤦‍♂️

I have no idea where to post this, but is a anyone else super weirded out by LinkedIn lately? All these pictures of people using their kids as props for parental leave, or how their kid has a disorder and how proud they are? I just came across a post that was a woman lying next to her mom who had *literally* just died. I feel a little cold hearted saying it, but it is so over the top on what is supposed to be a professional network. Am I just totally out of touch?
