No definitely not

I have before and in hindsight wish I hadn’t

What’d you have to do?

I have too. It was very clear to me that it was a result of bad hiring decisions by the hiring team, so this was a reaction to them not getting burned again. Additionally, it was an inexperienced hiring team, meaning, I gave 15 years more experience than the ECD.

Hi fishies! Considering an internal big 4 move from Western Europe to Dubai. Not sure about WLB and whether there’ll be enough growth and learning opportunities after reading some of the threads here. Anyone up for sharing their experience? Especially concerned about sexism / racism as a WOC…and whether moving back to Europe in a few years will be difficult because the ME experience won’t be considered valuable.
