Speak for yourself Mck1. Honestly, our market is just fine, and I know BCG X is hiring in select roles, which is where our data folks reside.

True lots of jobs listed. Any tips in the process? Also how is the work life balance?

In this sideways market the Big 4 will probably lay you off pretty quickly.

Yeah I feel like big 4 is becoming less and less relevant as they have shown themselves to be unreliable employers. Seems to me that less people are feeling inclined to go that route anymore because the layoffs have been so bad the last few years. I'd go MBB if you can land a role there

Although MBB is also willing to let people go quickly, too. It’s just a bad market right now.

I got variable pay of 1 lack, two times after April's appraisal (so total 2 lack). I didn't had variable component mentioned in offer letter, but it was showing up in hr portal. Now payroll people are calling me and asking me to return the 1 lack saying it was done by mistake. What should I do?

I’ve been trying to get into the top tier Associate Product Marketing Manager position Google for some time now for just an interview and I feel like business majors somehow have such a stronger chance in getting interviewed especially my business school and I feel really discouraged as an Econ Major and I have a lot of marketing experience that I’ve built over the years. Are there any non-business majors in the tech realm in non technical positions at Google that can advise me?
