READY TO PARTYY!!!
Curious: is CSR metal or plastic?
Guys there’s this boot camp that I came across that trains people to get jobs in Top consulting firms and has a fee plan wherein you pay once you get placed. I just wanted to know if someone here has any experience with this ?

Male, never. It has nothing to do with my job. It can only be related to my character I believe.

If ever there were a classic consultant exchange, this would be it.
Male, never, and ‘ve never thought about it lol
Mck1 is lying, they work at Mck lol

Are you looking for an excuse?
Cheating isn’t prevalent in the industry specifically (vs. another type of industry). I’m a 32 year old married male and I’ve never felt the need or want to.
I think a better consideration for dating a consultant is how analytical and Type-A they can be. My wife struggles with this in my personality. I’ve gotten more relaxed on the home front but it’s already taken a toll on my wife unfortunately. On the brink of divorce and my heart is in pieces…make sure they can turn off the work mode/brain when they come home to you. Good luck 🙏🏻
@D6. Thank you. I feel for you. I wish you peace and happiness. If you want to chat about anything, shoot me a note. It’s hard to find people going thru similar challenges - I’m happy to provide any perspective I can to help you.
Can't even get one can't imagine getting two
It’s weird, when it comes to convincing a client that they absolutely can make this plan work, I’m a great liar but if it’s my wife asking if I just checked out that woman’s bottom, I’m the worst liar in the world and I fold!
Plus by the time I’ve done my work, been to the gym, read my book and played with my cats, the idea of having to talk to someone else and try and be emotionally involved enough to have an affair is frankly exhausting.
Oh and lastly my wife would butcher me with a spoon and bury me under the patio.

D2 is inadvertently living my life. Must be a glitch in the Matrix

30 male. I’ve never cheated and I never will.
I think I will cheat on my firm rather than my future gf !
If my DMs worked I would slide into yours.
No.
Consulting is the furtherest thing from a turn on.
I love problem solving! I think it’s super sexy. 😂
Male in consulting for almost a decade, committed for 8 of those, never even thought of cheating. Dont think being on the road changes your inherent character. On engagements where I could travel back home in the middle of the week to surprise my SO at times I have made the effort to do so. Its all about priorities…
Female, no. I'm too exhausted to do anything extra. Married for a long time. My husband and I decided to have an open marriage. He goes out once in a while but nothing steady. I don't. I'd rather binge-watch a Netflix show, drink tea, and put my feet up. LOL!
A2 Please DM me! I need to restructure and I have questions
What the hell is this question? 😂😂 male and never - sounds like someone wants encouragement to cheat when you should just leave
Male in consulting for 7 years. Never cheated and frankly have never even been romantically involved with someone at my travel location even when single. My character is strong and I have no interest. My time away from home is for working on my career and myself. I spend my free time working out, meditating/reflecting, and eating healthy when I am away for work
Eh, I have plenty of fun on the weekends and like to party a lot. The balance keeps me from getting out of control / fat
What an absurd question. Just because one person in consulting cheated on you doesn't mean they all will. People in consulting come from all kinds of different backgrounds and walks of life...they're people just like anyone outside the profession. Please don't generalize.
Fair enough. I get that.
I’m too tired to get it up most days 🫠
I think Bcg has an above avg cheating rate
Married and will never cheat.
Never. Love my wife and children. Would never even consider it.

29 year-old male, never cheated, never will. I don’t understand how people could do that to one another that they say that they love.
Maybe I am the only meeting the wrong guys then!
Female, married, and if I am ever staffed to travel with my work crush I am definitely going to smash. 🥵
EY it’s cute that you think I’m single. My man doesn’t cheat and he’s happy 😘
