Okay to renege on a lateral offer that I already accepted (prior to Covid-19 outbreak)? Anxiety is high moving in a time like this and now would rather stay put.

Need advice and pep talk because I’m certain I have chronic imposter syndrome :( Background on me, I have about 6 years of work experience post college but have gone through many companies because of layoffs and/or reorgs. With that, I’ve bounced a lot with different industries and have done different roles for a year max. My current role is about to be my longest (thank goodness, hitting about 2 years) but I feel like I’m not a SME in anything but I feel embarrassment for myself (Cont.)

Anyone that works on at Amazon that can speak to the culture and work life balance? I have my final interviews on Thursday and Friday and thinking of cancelling because of all the horrible things I heard. I do not mind working hard but I also not looking to be on 24/7.

Hi Fishes,
I am an Senior iOS developer. YOE is 8.5. Currently getting 13 LPA. Getting promotion in a month with 25 to 30 percent hike which comes nearly 16.8 LPA. I cannot able to relocate now due to family dependency reasons. I heard iOS developer salary market is good. I am having a very good work life balance in the current company. I am in a confusion.

Today someone quit and just straight up walked out of the office. Like something you'd see in a movie. My jaw is still open. You ever seen this happen?

Is finding a Generalist position for more than 50k but with me having less than 7 years of HR experience reasonable? Is a generalist position the best next step to get more experience? I have a masters in HR and my SHRM-CP certification. Any advice on upward moving in the industry is welcomed. Thanks in advanced

I keep hearing that Booth’s MBA program is rigorous (maybe the most rigorous out of M7). That said, how much more work are students expected to do compared to HBS, Wharton, Kellogg, etc.? I don’t know if this is an outdated opinion, considering a lot of MBAs are very demanding. Booth is personally my top choice for having a flexible curriculum & 2-3 days of classes. But I really want to know what to expect around the “rigorous” label. Does it mean I’ll be buried in coursework the other 2-3 days?

In need of advice: I am starting a full time role (Senior Consultant) in an industry that is my post-MBA goal. I want to start MBA Fall 2022. Does it look bad to AdCom if I apply R1 having been in my job for 1 month? (Will have 1 year when I attend). Thanks!

Anyone heard of/done the PowerMBA? How was it? Was it worth it? Should I just go to proper b school, overpricing & all...?

Why does Stanford GSB ask if any ‘close relatives’ are also applying for the same MBA class? Would a cousin count and should I disclose this information, or will it factor against me?

WL at Sloan. Any good vibe stories of people getting in after WL to cheer me up?
More in general: what is the chance of getting a R2 interview? Some folks will for sure enter at H/S and maybe make some space for us 🥲

Context: 760 GMAT, MBB (with earlier Corp. experience), not a great GPA in my BA but 4.0-equivalent in my MSc, good ECs. EU-based

Is anyone else unable to access their MIT Sloan app right now?

Anyone's GSB Portal who doesn't have the Waitlist Tab now? Maybe a botched update? Hearing people in a few different stages of their application with the tab? It has a View Decision button, which just says no decision when picked. If everyone has it, probably a botched update!

If I want to apply R1, when should I request recommendations?

How useful is sponsorship as a negotiating lever for full-time roles? I realistically do not see myself going back to consulting after B school. I have to stay for 3-4 more months to keep my sponsorship but starting to seriously consider quitting ASAP

Accenture tech consultant vs KPMG Management consulting for top MBA exit in a few years? Which one will look better?

Im strongly considering an MBA. Only thing that deters me is cost. I’ve heard of some tier 1 firms that will offer tuition reimbursement for returning interns post-MBA, how common is that? Also considering pivoting to a firm that offers scholarships. Any tips/insight on this? Thank you!

Anyone open to chatting about their career journey and why they'd like to get an MBA? I'm only 24 and am trying to figure out how this can fit in my life and would love to hear how others have done it and why! Just feel pretty overwhelmed at the moment
