I have an interview for a senior consultant role for fso credit risk. Can anyone give me insight on the types of engagements the team works in? Will there be alot of domestic travel involved if I’m in the NY office? Any insight would be greatly appreciated

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.

I'm guessing most people know already but for any new 🐠, the Marriott Mega Bonus is up for registration.

Team. I have a valid visa stamp till Dec 2019 with EY. However I moved to PwC couple of months back. If I travel to India in December, do I need to go for stamping again or will my I797 suffice at the port of entry ??

I booked a trip from NYC->Singapore with Krisflyer miles for next year. I need to change the reservation to be NYC->Bangkok but with a stop over in Singapore. I’m seeing that the dates are now blocked / waitlist only on the stopover route (bc the singapore flight is full) but I am the person on the NY->Singapore flight 🤦🏽‍♂️. Any ideas on how to make this change given it’s an entirely new route?
