I use Metcon Frees. Really like them, great for switching between lifting and cardio.

Any consultant here who has worked at Citadel or knows someone who is working at Citadel? A recruiter from there reached out to me today, and I got the sense that the culture there is more intense compared to consulting. How would you compare Citadel vs MBB on the below points:

a) Culture
b) Diversity (I am an international student and a person of color, and my sense is that Citadel is not as international)
c) Comp trajectory

Thanks!

My company is looking for a way to coordinate travel plans so that one person isn't arriving at one of our international offices one week and then someone else goes to the same office the following week.
Interested to hear how others coordinate travel in this way that would allow people to plan their trips together. Do you use any software, app, shared document?
