Cleared interview with HCL. How much can I get, I'm expecting above 35LPA. Is HCL GOOD FOR SAP BASIS profile?

Callback consisted of five back-to-back interviews with exclusively white men. No thanks.

You did an interview and your interviewer apologized that the travel time 180minutes was much higher than 30minutes scheduled time for the interview and that It could have been done remotely, but she has to follow the process. I am still waiting for feedback though.

Is this just a humane demonstration?

My CW was a NIGHTMARE to work with until I had sex dream about her. Now, I find myself being kind, patient, and jumping to her defense with others talk shit. Weirds me out, but sure made life easier 🤷‍♀️

What was the first thing you did once you become partner? I am assuming heavy pressure on selling more than what you were selling before?

Partners, what's been the impact to ongoing sales conversations? Do you think we're all screwed for the year?

How do you identify potentials in people?

Let’s say staff got an offer from a competing B4 to jump ship moving up in comp and title. Can they eventually boomerang back to your teams? If so, how would you feel about this?

Just heard FY23 partners at PwC are getting only 40 shares vs.60 last year. Looks like new partners are being shown the middle finger by Tim Ryan in favor of increasing stock price and getting more catalyst hires. Sucks!!

How do PPMDs make sure when you are replacing an incumbent, you don't get handed down a broken system ? What sort of knowledge transfer and contractual framework do you get the client to agree to and how do you negotiate on that? I feel clients are not always honest and hide a lot of landmines which a consulting company can walk into and blamed for it.

Big 4 partners, can you provide any insights into the Partner v MD decision when you were up? Were you given the option? Can you share the pros v cons, especially from salary and pension standpoint.

What is the equivalent of a Sr MD in Accenture in IBM ? A Band C or higher ?

Have any of you considered FIRE? I'm sure some of the partners are young and rich enough to retire. So why not say screw working until 60 and to hell with the pension? Travel the world and live life while I can?

Is MD in Accenture worth the hassle? Is it the same as say Partner in Deloitte? Not sure how it compares in compensation package, scope of impact, prestige etc? I am new to Accenture

What has been more beneficial to your career and why: specializing in a service offering or an industry?

Anyone got the skinny on Alix consulting?

Got pinged by a recruiter for an MD role in digital transformation

He claims they compete with MBB and Alvarez.

Thoughts?

For KPMG PPMD, how long did you spend at the director level before making it to MD? How long at MD to Partner?

Folks - Which is a better option .. Deloitte MD or ZS Partner? Similar comp.
