Hi, received an offer from another Big4 in Amsterdam (currently working in Eastern Europe), but relocating, I’m concerned about potential layoffs in the coming period being the last to join the team.

Why do so many Americans put a useless apostrophe before a plural S? It’s charts not chart’s. It’s curtains not curtain’s. What is wrong with ya’ll. Get it together. 😩

Enrolled in Stern for a few weeks.
The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
