Are you gonna make your decision based off the votes of a bunch of 25 year olds who complain about cost of living, being underpaid, having to work 55 hours a week, and think they all are God’s gift to consulting while their Managers and Partners all wear dunce caps?

funnysmart

I voted “no” already. But my take is what I said above - don’t make your decision Based off this

Why no though? Is it that bad?

I vote for entertaining. Some good consulting leadership at Cog in FS. Worth deciding for yourself

FYI...lot of churn (more than the usual) at senior and practice lead levels these day

I think this is a good thing. Get rid of dead weight and hire more big 4 caliber talent

I am starting a 4-months internship at a company B in January. However, I just heard from a company T that they will interview me for their full time position.

Company T is paying me way more (twice) than Company B. And I like company T more. However, they want me to start working in February if I get this position. If I end up getting the offer, I will have to quit my internship at Company B, almost immediately after I begin the internship.

Is this okay?
