Hi! I was approached by Databricks to join as a CSE, did the interview process and got and offer. I'm currently a Senior Data Scientist at IBM, going for manager soon. I was curious if others did a similar switch and if they were happy with their decision.

I feel like this whole S&O thing hasn't really changed my life within EY on a daily basis. Is that because the switch isn't clicked until July or? I figured they would begin soft transition now..

Thinking about switching in house jobs from one bank to another. Current job is great for work life balance but no promotion prospects and pay is below market. New job offers a better title and better pay but work life balance is a bit of an unknown.

Need flexibility to pick up my kids from childcare every day…

Thoughts on EW MBA from Booth/Kellogg/Haas. Currently SC at Deloitte and want to transition to tier 1 consulting firms

If a recruiter asks me if I’ve spoken to another recruiter at the company, is it okay if I lie and say no? Or should I just be honest and say yes? I’ve heard of instances where candidates have been ghosted if they say they’ve been in contact with another recruiter. In my case, the recruiter I was in contact with messaged me on LinkedIn and never followed up after our 5 minute phone conversation. I really want this job so I don’t want to mess anything up before getting an interview.
