Hey I'm 25M, based out of NYC but travelling around currently. Looking for someone who understands the consulting grind and would like to chat.

I currently do EPM implementations but I don’t find it very challenging to be honest.
I’m much more interested in data science/python developing/ML/AI stuff and want to go down that route eventually.
I’m pretty handy with python/matlab etc and have the right degree (Masters in Chen eng from a top 10 school world wide)
I think I will stick this out for abit longer I am only one year out of College and it’s good experience anyway as it’s in the realm of software development etc.

Girls I need advice. I’m in love with a friend (Dutch guy) who has a girlfriend. I want to tell him how I feel but I’m afraid I’ll mess up things. I think he is afraid of me being too strong (whatever that means but men keep telling me that) but he texted me before a super important workshop like: “make your audience fell in love with your beautiful smile”. Isn’t that weird? Does he like me? + his voice is always shaking on the phone, but never made a ‘move’... what should I do?

Hi Fishes, I have one question for you.

What are avg 2 sharing PG rents in Bengaluru?

I need some advice. My manager made a big deal about me being in the bathroom for 10 minutes today. This is just another micromanaging tactic of his - lately everything I do is a problem. Next week is my final week until I start my new job and I’d had enough of the crap. I explained that if me going to the bathroom is a problem, I’d be glad to provide a doctors note and get with HR. He said he would show HR my emails. I said please do, as I have the right to use the bathroom. I’m not away

How is utilization calculated? What happens if we are on the bench?

Hi all, I'm curious how much of the 'One McKinsey' model is really true at least at the national level. I have an offer from a tier 2 city (Seattle, Denver, Austin, etc). I have always been fascinated by McKinsey's reputation of being able to work on a project anywhere in the country regardless of your home office and traveling often for work (yes I want this lifestyle). Is this still the case? Or is it generally hard to get on cases outside of your local office?

Sometimes I just really want my own desk...🙄
