I did. And eventually spoke to HR about it. Got to know I wasn't the only one who complained nor the last one. The guy was eventually fired.

Ditto to PwC1 except: he was a very high performer sales-wise. So he got a coach and counseling. And turned himself around. He’s way better now so I’m glad I reported him to my partner and HR

Managing Director shouting me down when I was answering his question. Then shouting again in front of others that he wouldn’t talk with me about this because I “wasn’t important enough to be in the conversation.” I was my work stream lead and not a newbie.
Same person telling client that everyone on his team wasn’t doing good work so he would make us work round the clock and not charge it in. We had hit all deliverables at a level of excellence rarely seen. He just wanted to manage more.l and potentially sell more.
Hearing him tell someone else that he didn’t deserve to go home from work because he hadn’t shown up for work that day (the Associate had done great work but been cowed by constant haranguing from same person).
That was my last straw (going after staff). And yes, I should have reported him earlier but I hadn’t.

Gosh.. I got hammered today for no fault of mine and my level up used some lingo ( not cursing ) that pissed me off. I tried to tell that person about my viewpoint but I got ignorance and no interest in talking. This is not the first time and I know it won't be last but I think next time I am escalating to his higher up or HR for sure. I am just surprised that this type of culture exists in big 4

We had a case like that recently with an old teammate. Half our current team volunteered to alt travel to the old teammates site to revert with some feedback for their lead...

This place might be fratty AF, but the good ones do a surprisingly good job looking out for their ilk.

Several co-workers and myself reported the MD since he couldn't manage his temper - he would frequently scream at us over trivial things and throw stuff at us. Nothing came of it as the owners of the company and HR "couldn't fire him" since he was one of the first employees to join the firm. Resulted in everyone on the team quitting.

D1 - whoa you should definitely escalate
OP - it shouldn't matter that it is a peer. If you can push back, do that. If not you should still bring it up - either with your partner or HR

Hey Fish,

I was just wondering what your opinion was on the company Revature? I kind of wish I could do it, but I have two kids and cannot relocate. I’m just having a really hard time getting a job as an entry level front end developer. Does anyone know of a company like revature, but where you don’t have to relocate? Please let me know.

I cleared two interview rounds for a Senior Consultant role, had a salary discussion with HR, then they shared a tentative salary structure and i have said ok to it over email. Then HR said next step will be me getting an offer letter 2 weeks later. Is it advisable to followup with them after 2 weeks or just let them do their thing slowly? I have seen posts here of them being very slow and not sharing the offer letter without followup.

Got messaged about an analyst job doing the preliminary discovery stuff including dashboards. But not for the business, but to give recommendations to data scientists about where to focus.

Also worried about career prospects. I've been wanting to turn business facing, but becoming the only DA on a DS team seems like it'd be a dead end with promos?

Happy day. Firing a client that is a time suck and emotional drain today. Life is already better.
