Are there any BKD people actually excited about “FORVIS” other than the interns and partners on LinkedIn? I hope they didn’t pay a consulting firm “forvis” name (see what I did there). Just here to stir the pot.

I work there and it is a terrible name but literally nothing we can do now. No clients are going to leave due to a name though.

Hes open to basically anything in the litigation space so long as it pays better. Any advice?

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA
