Can any NA Bainies share the firm holidays for this year please?

Seeing the “3% pledge for pay equity” popping up next to agency names here. Interesting that our Global CEO is a woman and don’t see us on that list. We also have the worst parental leave. 🤔

Is it okay to take couple days off when switching jobs on h1b? Planning to take ~7-10 days off before I join new firm. And also planning to go out of country during that time. Would that be an issue?

What is the maternity/paternity leave benefit at the big 4, ACN and MBB?

I read somewhere that everybody takes at least one vacation in a year. I didn’t take vacation for years… I did take a day or two off some weeks…Please tell me I’m not alone…

Anyone have any luck negotiating more PTO?

Other than salary, what other monetary benefits we get in ibm gbs

What are the parental leave benefits at Siegfried? I can't find any information on their benefits package or online, neither can I find it on the internet, I'm new and don't want to ask about it since I recently started,not planning for a baby right just want to know for the future.

What’s weil’s tech stipend/reimbursement program? Is it the same for laterals?

I got an offer in Wells Fargo CTC - 22 lacs YOE - 9yrs in data analytics can anyone suggest how is the company in terms of job security and annual hikes & benefits

Hii, someone please let me know the leave travel allowance in bosch.

My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster. I’ve barely taken any days off this year and pick up “skeleton crew” days any chance I get. I was able to work out a deal with my company before I came because of prior experience luckily, but they offer a terrible base salary and sham of a commission structure to new hires + no remote. Then sit here and can’t figure out why…

Second year analyst who got staffed on a 2-3 week engagement with potential to get extended but not confirmed. Planning a vacation that happens to be the month of go live, is it fair for me to take it

Hi Fishes!

Which is a better option b/w Deloitte USI vs EY GDS as Audit senior?
In terms of pay, other benefits and work culture.

Before how many days of joining PWC SDC Kol can I expect the laptop?
Also, There was no joining date on my offer letter neither I have any document containing my joining date….I just have a confirmation over an email from the HR and can see my insurance benefits w.e.f. date on workday portal.
Should I ask for a document with joining date? @pwcsdc

Aside from all the usual benefits like paid vacation time, health insurance, 401k matching program, have you ever seen a truly unique business perk?

I'm really worn out. Anyone know what paid/unpaid time off options I have (other than normal PTO)?

Hello Fishes!

How is Blackstone CoE to work for? Any perks?
All your replies are anticipated. I see no one has discussed Blackstone.
Please help me know a little.
I have got an offer from Blackstone COE as an analyst

Can we apply sick leaves in notice period ?

Have any one used a resume coach or service for in house job search, particularly for IP and product counsel positions? If so, how did you find a good one? Thanks!

Does anyone else’s company do “secondments”? I was asked to “look into” this? Someone who is a non attorney executive had a great idea they could save money and have outside counsel “at their disposal” 24/7 and on-site? Is that how this works? I know we spend a lot of $ on outside counsel but I don’t see how one of them having an office on-site adds much value? Maybe it’s a good thing. I am supposed to “report back.” Are they a joint employee? I was asked to advise “what this will look like.”

Anyone know of the job market in Dallas, Tx?

Anyone know of adult recreational soccer leagues in San Diego? Any informal pickup leagues should work too. Would prefer something in La Jolla/north county but willing to drive to downtown!

I'd love to learn more about how developing countries are being supported in COVID. Do people know of ways that US doctors can help?

Who was the best looking president in US history (who have actual photographs)? Is it either Obama or Biden? They both looked quite handsome in their prime years.

Hi All, I'm a complete newbie here on H1b.

Are we allowed to buy or trade stocks and crypto currency on h1b..?

Has anyone here received an offer and declined due to timing but joined at a later date? Being opportunistic with my search and not quite ready to jump ship, but also finding some pretty interesting gigs.

How is MyConsultingOffer? Worth trying?

Dispensation for virtual masses is still in effect but trying to get to mass more often in person.

How's the situation where you are? Can you make it to mass while traveling for work?

Hi Everyone. My LWD is 16th of September. I currently only have 1 offer in hand and that too not from a company that i want to join. I am not really sure if it will be good for me if i join that company or not. I am into python development. Kindly please help me with referrals if you can. I am really panicking about this. Please help 🙏

I'm a long-time Houstonian who's been away for 7 years and is finally coming back for a visit!

Looking for new interesting or unique places to go. I like anything with a gimmick.

Old favorites include the Bookstop that was once a movie theater (closed years ago), Hobbit Cafe, 59 Diner, Treebeards, Phoenicia Market, the Angelika Theatre 😢.

I'm especially looking for:

- a good Tex-Mex rec (my old fave didn't survive 2020)
- unique bookstores
- anything else weird or special! Surprise me 😃

Digital Health start up recommendations? Anyone see any good series B-D companies out there worth exploring?

What do you think about management's decision to require all staff to come into the office?

How to deal with a partner with a difficult style? He cuts people off, is very impatient, has low tolerance for any mistakes no matter how small. Find it hard to meet any of his expectations, ever.

Preparing for a BCG 1st round. Looking for some case partners, please DM if interested. Have passed MBB 1st rounds before & T2 interviews. Preferably would like to partner with others who have also passed MBB interviews or strategy consulting interviews before

For those roles in non strategy such as risk or implementation, does any of the mbb recruit out of non targets?
I'm a master's student in business analytics in a non target in NYC, and I really am interested in an implementation/ risk consulting at MBB.
( Different from big 4 risk)

Graduating senior. Have choices between MBB and SWE at FAANG. Not sure what to do. Long term I’d love to be in a small startup or a leader in a tech company. Not sure which path is better for that. Any thoughts?

What’s everyone’s experience with traveling these days - how often and for what reasons? And where do you anticipate it going? I’ve left consulting but considering coming back, under the assumption that the regular 4 day travel week is basically not coming back (tho obv client / project specific and certainly will make sense sometimes). Am I nuts?

How is MyConsultingOffer? Worth trying?

When do you think Bain will restart experienced hire recruiting again?!

Hi I am looking for a referral for associate/ consultant level roles at MBB.

Please reach out if you would be willing to provide one. Happy to catch up and discuss further.

Background:
MIT Grad with background in Financial Services Consulitng.

Worked in T2 consulting for 2 years, now at a startup, want to boomerang back to consulting at MBB. Would it be possible to apply after 6 months of startup experience? Or should I stick out longer

Anyone willing to provide referral for McKinsey?

McKinsey & Company

What’s the BCG NYC office like? (WLB, culture, travel, benefits)

a bit of an open-ended question, but what are the general predictors of on-the-job success at MBB? (both tangible things like test scores, case interview performance, and intangible things like character, drive etc.)

Submitted my app to McK a week ago for Associate level. Haven’t received comms yet. Is it fair to say that recruiters declined to interview?

Any insight on technical part of the interview for McKinsey internal manager role of strategy and operations? I spoke to the recruiter today and they scheduled the interview for tomorrow not giving me any time to prepare. A little unexpected but I don’t want to miss the opportunity. Any details about working at McKinsey internally or their technical recruitment process is greatly appreciated.

For those who just got offers from BCG as a Sr. Associate, what was TC?

McKinsey plus opioid and FDA - the combination that never gives a dull moment 🧘‍♂️🛩🧘‍♂️

Thoughts on pivoting to MBB for a single year as an experienced hire, primarily for the resume boost? Unsure of how a short tenure might impact exit ops for someone who knows that they want out of consulting in the not too distant future.

Hi MBB Software Engineer fishes,

I recently applied for a position in one of McKinsey’s recently acquired firm for Senior Software Engineer (Team Lead).

The interview process is so damn easy - A medium level Hackerrank test, interview with company CTO and then behavioural round with a McKinsey Director and offer extended.

Wondering if this is a red flag.
