I've done several cases with NYC and think they work way longer hours than us.

Bain London had some of the best hours when I was there. Only a few US and Northern European offices are better

Need help settling a debate with my friend. She thinks I will have an easier time getting research grants because I'm male. I think it's the opposite because companies are trying to change the status quo and get more women involved (which I'm not complaining about... please don't attack me.) Which one of us is more right than the other? I'm interested in getting as many viewpoints as possible, whether or not they agree with me or with her. Thanks!!!

Hi Folks - agency vs in-house - pros and cons - go!

Finally had my busy season cry after the staff told the team that he put in his two weeks. I'm crying because 1. We are so screwed and 2. why don't I have the courage to do something like that.
I'm turning 29 this year and usually a stone-hearted bitch but never failed to cry during busy seasons. I think it's time to get out.

I want to quit without a job lined up. This sucks so bad that I don't even have words for.

My 401(k) is up to the full match. No debt other than a $3k student loan and tiny interest on what’s left of my car loan. Single. TX, USA
