What are typical exit salaries? Aka if your spouse/roommate/friend isn’t in consulting, what do they make, if they’re doing in-house strategy or marketing. I’m seeing an opportunity for 60K which would be a pay cut from what I currently make, but consulting has ruined what is “normal” for post MBA salary

I was a month in as Workday HCM Consultant with Accenture. They immediately throw me into the HCM courses to obtain my WD HCM certification. There are three parts HCM Essentials, HCM Applied, and HCM Practical. The passing score is 70 or above. I scored a 62 on the Essentials portion, I passed Applied, and at the end of this week Practical. During class, I received an “immediate connect” Team call and I was fired because of my low score. I'm devastated, and shocked. Yesterday was my birthday.

Any advice on switching over to brand strategy from account management? I’ve been at my company for about 1.5 years and have expressed my interest but so far no actions have been taken / no opportunities have presented themselves. Should I be looking into getting a MBA to make the switch? If so, any program recos?

So I got a preliminary pass on my CISA. Can I trust that my score will be a passing score? How accurate is the preliminary pass?

Anyone know anything about CPE opportunities? How do they expect anyone to keep their certification active?

Hello fishes,

I am new here. This is my first post.
I am a b.tech + mba (tier 1). I joined my first job in 2009 and still in the same company. I am into marketing especially digital marketing.

As I have never switched my job in last 13 years I know I am paid less than industry standard.

I just want to understand what should be my salary as per industry standard as per my education, experience and profile (marketing)

What are your thoughts on APICS CSCP certification? Is it truly worth the time? Industrial engineer with 2 YOE, looking for advise on whether is a good investment or not. Thanks!

I have ~2 YOE and plan to apply for MBA next year (2023 start). Is it worth trying to switch to MBB first and starting from scratch (leaving right before promotion at my current firm) + delaying my application in terms of overall career trajectory if I want to go into VC or startups after MBA?

Hi is there any opportunity at optum?

1 YOE in sales
Education : MBA (IIM)

Been @ EY a month (frm PWC) as a sr. D wants to bring me in as a M (random LinkedIn post). What salary range should I expect? I said I need 150-175k. Realistic for 7yrs, 4yr consulting non target MBA?

Everyone that has a cissp certification - how do we get the cpe certificates (from isc2 webinars) out of the portal ? Please help. Need to download and report into my workplace to be cpe compliant.

Is it worth it to start studying for the CISSP now if the new version will be coming out in May?

Does Accenture sponsor MBA in the US? If so, what schools do they sponsor?

Question on Wharton - do you all think Wharton these days prefers people with some sort of tech background and entrepreneurship goals post MBA? I’m imagining W is trying to catch up with H/S on tech and entrepreneurship fronts but it’s just my guess.

A follow up question - is entrepreneurship truly not competitive at W?

Dear all,

Could you please help me decide the better of the two schools in Canada:

I need to get some sort of certification to become more reputable and be able to work my way towards Manager. I know CPA is most common, but there’s also CFA, CIA, CMA, and an MBA. What would be easiest? I’m thinking CPA or MBA.

Now recently I got a offer frm wipro. here also I did not tell that I was earlier termined by wipro.If wipro asks me to provide NSR details during my joining, does NSR have my previous exp in their db? Does it affect my joining with wipro?

My AD keeps presenting their writing during presentations. It's not good. A CD straight up stopped one presentation and asked me why I put that line in there cause it was that bad.

I'm tired of my partner overstepping and it reflecting poorly on me, what's the best way to get them to stop and not be seen as mean? The AD is well liked by the agency, I'm newish.

Pet parents - when did you get your dog spayed? I’ve only had one girl before and got her spayed at 6 months (before her first heat). I got a new girl a couple of weeks ago and the vet is recommending I spay her after her first heat... seems really risky and irresponsible. Thoughts? Should I find a new vet?

If the WH thinks Fauci is doing a bad job, why not just fire him? Instead of leaking their dissatisfaction with him. Seems cowardly.

how do you study mbb prep material?

for ex, w/ crafting cases: there is a free 7-day trial w/ vids. do you think it would be a worthwhile investment to make flashcards of the content in the videos, study the content, then jump into mocks, or would it be best use of time to just go thru the vids/material, and immediately jump into mocks after w/o actively studying all the principles first?

thanks

I have covid, with a fever over 100 for the last 6 days. I’m frustrated that my spouse has been working late and doesn’t check in on me at all during the day to see how I am or if I could use help. It feels like I’m struggling through the virus on my own. I brought it up with her this evening and she got defensive and put it back on me. Any advice on how to proceed? She said I should ask for what I need, which Is fair. But I also feel like I shouldn’t have to. When she’s sick, I’m proactive.

You ever reply with a confirmation question, but then realize that confirmation probably wasn’t needed at all. But now you find yourself stuck because you’ve put into writing that there is an outstanding question and if you send the docs out, it will seem like you just sent them without waiting for a reply. Just me? Cool 😑
