Anyone here have to travel to the US for work? I’m worried given the increased detainment of non-US citizens crossing the border. Have you pushed back when clients request you be on site and how did you approach the conversation?

You are worried that once you’re in the US, you can’t leave?

Yes, similar to the woman from Vancouver who got detained for 2 weeks when she was crossing the border to the US

As long as you have all your documents in order there is nothing to worry about..

I hope you have a TN Visa. If not, I'd rethink going to the U.S. for work

I used to have a TN visa (which has since expired). I’m mainly going to the US for meetings which is technically allowed without a TN visa. However, I’m worried that because I had a TN visa previously, customs might think I’m going there to do work without a valid work permit

I am an associate at a UMM and my employment contract has a 4 month non compete (yes, even for associates) but I am thinking of lateraling. What are the implications of breaking a non compete?

I am not so much worried about getting sued, but about my current employer tanking my reputation if I leave and break the non compete.

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!
