Day 5 in consulting:

Finally it's Friday! Just 2 more days to go till this week is over.

I’d like to start freelancing. How do you price your designs? GIFs, posters, spec work?

7 year lawyer here. Been with the same big national firm all 7 years (not BigLaw) doing complex litigation. Been working remote a long time due to moving around for wife’s job. As a result of the moving was bumped off partner track. I’m looking at a great small firm that will be a practice change (but still litigation). I’m told they’re looking for someone with less experience and they’re skeptical because of my experience. It’s frustrating. How do I overcome this?

Enviro/ natural resource lawyers— what’s your dream job?

What are the chances of Amazon (or FAANG in general) allowing you to apply/interview again for a position that you did not get in the past?

Hey everyone, curious about pros/cons and profitability of renting out a unit long term vs AirBnB. Let’s say it’s a condo downtown in a big city, how do you figure out what’s the better option?

Any of you 3-6 PQE associates have your own clients? I would really love to do some business development with tangible results. I want to have my own clients or atleast bring some to the firm. What has worked for you? Also looking for advice from partners who may have started BD efforts early in their career.

I just joined 2months back ic3, am I eligible for hike this year, is there minimum number of days to be served for appraisal?

Does anyone have a referral for Rancho Biosciences?

How do you deal with customer complaints about rising prices of product?

Hi fellow fish need some advice.

I'm planning a wedding and wondering if I should apply for new credit cards to maximize on points. If so, wondering what your recommendations are and or if there are new cards out there I haven't heard of yet. For context I probably have another 20k+ in expenses to pay still and my current cards are:

CSP
Marriott Bonvoy Boundless
Citi double cash
Random card (used to be uber)

Anyone go to product from data science? Any thoughts on your transition?

Just a discussion thread, but I feel like this is a good bowl to ask this. Does anyone else look at the vast majority of folks around you and think “damn, we are so over leveraged as a society?” Or am I just crazy?

Im starting a new job but still employed somewhere else. I was trying to be open about staying at BOTH places. My current job won’t let me be part time because they don’t allow “set schedules”. Yet I am one of the only reliable and loyal employees in the department, and currently working a set schedule. So why will they not let me continue a set schedule but with different hours? This place is more focused on strict policies and not actually trying to work their employees and being flexible.

Does a 20 year long career at Deloitte hold much value in the marketplace in light of the current economic situation? Started as a change leadership Consultant, but ultimately spent majority of my career in Resource Management and Global Mobility.

As a (class of 2020) second year whose several classmates from different groups are already thinking about leaving/going to other firms, should I explore other options too? Don’t know if they’re being dramatic about how bad it is or if I’m just drinking the koolaid in my group?

Are there mid day networking events? An extroverted friend in a new-to-them remote role has recently realized they miss people though they like the work & employer. Any suggested mid day networking events or other ideas?

I know I'm a seasoned consultant because I know the locations of the best plugs in airports across the country. I can't decided if I'm proud or sad to possess such knowledge.

I know Mck is the top for strategy, but in terms of digital/design in top consulting firms which do you think is better? Mckinsey digital or deloitte digital? (Or another..?)

"You can't get rich working for someone else" the truth of this statement has started to sink in over my first two years on the job (and out of school). What's stopping many of you young folks without

Walking up to the client site looking like Elle woods today. 💁🏼💗

Veterans! How has your experience been with the Big 4 and serving your time in the Reserves or National Guard? Are they accommodating? has anyone frowned upon your obligation to serve once a month?

Anyone else diverted from JFK / NY area due to weather and traffic?

What’s bonus look like for consultants at EYP?

First time in LA for the weekend. Which all places do you recommend to visit in 2 days? (local attractions/restaurants/scenic drives etc.)

Up vote if you went through a divorce, in the process of one or know it's inevitable b/c of the job.

Anyone work or know someone at E*Trade? Curious to hear about their culture and benefits

Any recommendations for good work desks - not planning to splurge (max budget: $200-300 but prefer less than $200). Just need space for my monitor, laptop, and some storage space.

Heard frm a friend at pwc that in consulting they have per diems. Is it for all practitioners and practice? Seems tight on budget.

Mercedes Owners: do you take your car in for Schedule B Service? $500+ for what it includes seems like a bit of a scam and wondering if I'm good just taking it in for an oil change. I assume they'll find anything that needs fixing/changing so they can charge me separately.

Been reading some posts and it sounds like everyone dislikes DDV. Why is that? What are the genuine reasons?
