Every year there is some or the other Organization level changes - tracks, CGs, space, pod especially in Consulting.

Resetting the performance review trends. Market correction, adjustments

Is this a good move or a smart one to wipe out the past track record. Curious.

SO and I (no kids) will be moving to Bay Area in early 2020 with a car. Both will be working in the Palo Alto / Mountain View Area. Better to just live where we work or possible to commute from SF?

Single and childless but would like kids. High income and maxing out all tax advantaged accounts I can but was thinking of starting a 529 in my own name to be transferred to future kids. If I don’t have kids maybe transfer it to my nephew. Thoughts, pros, cons?

Difference in A1 stub bonus when joining in March vs. summer as usual? I’m joining early, but still part of the 2022 Class.

How to avoid the blame game? I know we can't blame clients who are not competent and cannot provide material in timely manner, but dang it they can't just ask us to perform miracles without giving us any requirements or objectives. Every meeting is always, I will get it to you next time or I am scheduling a meeting internally to discuss... Anybody else frustrated with a lack of accountabilities? How do you deal with that?

I had 21 as fixed and 3 variable. Good salary for my experience. But then came covid and now I'm at 48 fixed salary.
Thanks to covid I was able to achieve this salary at just 7 yoe. When I joined the industry my manager at 10+ experience was earning 10-12 lakhs.
Things have changed so much after covid
I'm data and ML engineer

How hard it is to break into Tokyo? I want to relocate from South America but having no sucess in contating agencies

Hello! I've been struggling the last few weeks because someone on my team has been taking credit for my work. This coworker is really good with buzzwords and getting the attention of upper management. I'm feeling discouraged - what should I do?

Currently maxed Roth 401k, Roth IRA, HSA, and ESPP at 23 YO, should I consider an after-tax conversion? I’ve read about back-door Roths but I’m still far below the income limit as an analyst. Definitely looking into early-ish retirement, should I just invest the rest in a regular brokerage account until I reach the income limit? Am I even allowed to do a conversion? Any advice is helpful :)

Hey if you’re out of work and you have access to a beach GO! Just spent two hours zoning out to the waves and I feel so much happier.

Does anyone know what purple tables mean in Excel?

I know about green and orange, but never saw purple before and trying to figure it out.

Unfortunately was dragged into an audit despite the fact I don’t work in audit. Why does audit RM say yeah your hours will be 50 hours/week when you’ll have to work way more to do the audit. Seems very dumb - if you have work do it, if not don’t work…

Hey All,

We can use this bowl to post memes, humours and carry on with serious discussions on regular page.

91 promotions to AP this year globally.
What are your thoughts

Is this bowl still active?

@all aren't we all free to leave if we don't want to come to office? Why are we just creating ruckus on social media?

If someone actually starts leaving for our own, others will follow, then it might be a statement for all.
