FB fam, I want to go back to industry after 3 years in consulting. Which is a better choice: hands-on tech role (Software Engineer, I haven’t coded in a while) or a Program Manager role. Target FAANG!

I am applying for my FL CPA license. The work experience form asks for the start date, end date, and number of weeks employed. If I started working full time 7/20/20, do I just count 52 weeks and put that as my end date (i.e. 7/19/21)? Or should I put today (making it 56 weeks)?

Helper had to get surgery and will require post op care. Anyone aware of any places in Singapore that are able to assist? We are not in a position to fully provide care 24/7

anyone take a new job for the compensation and regret it? have an offer for a huge bump but not the exact role that i am interested in. would appreciate any insight into things you wish you considered, how it has effected your career etc.

Job transition question: I recently accepted an offer for a new role with Merrill Lynch, the following day I was fired from my previous employer. I haven’t filled out the updated work history background check info yet. The reason for termination was due to performance expectations not being met. Should I reach out to my new employer and let them know that I’ve been terminated? Should I just put the termination update on the background check form and leave it at that? Wondering what I should do.

Looking to return to singapore from the us. Spent the last 10 years consulting in the us - 4 with ibm and 6 with slalom. Any tips on which firms to target or avoid, based on prospects and culture?

How much should a recent grad joining a newly funded Series A startup negotiate for in equity? Non-tech role. Employee 28 I believe

Any SAP EWM fish in here? I am new to SAP and just finishing my first project in EWM. Would like to continue building Expertise in this Module.
I am therefore looking for advice on how to go about this?
Which areas within EWM to focus on or start with to build a good foundation.
I have not had formal training so just learning on the HUB and by doing as I go.
But I feel like I need to focus on one area. I cannot decide how/ what though.
Happy Holidays!
Thank you.

Hi Fishes, need help with referral in VMWARE. I have the job id

In negotiation for a Manager Role for BNY Mellon (grade K). Looking for some guidance on how hard I can push the issue with increasing my offer.
My convo with the HR recruiter was that he would push for $130k plus a sign on bonus. Offer is coming back at $125k with no bonus. Exiting my current position I'll be leaving a 3% pay increase, $12k bonus payout next month and full remote work on the table. Those considered it would be a lateral financial move for the 2023 year.

Hi Fishes, I have joined my current company in July this year, but things are not as going as expected. I am planning to switch again. Please share your thoughts. Working in automotive research and consulting, total yoe 6+.

Has anyone regretted their decision to become a PA instead of a Physician because we end up doing mostly the same work but for less pay? I'm considering the extra education

Anyone looking for referral at optum kindly DM me .

Anybody need referral for BCG, please DM your email id with the job link.

Should midlevel lawyers get presents for their juniors?

Planning on opening a Bonvoy boundless chase cc for the 75,000 points and have heard the first year is free. Is that right? If it is, do I still get the 75k? Are the 75k Chase points or Bonvoy points?

When potential clients tell you they’ll hire your firm but they want to be 100% reimbursed from you if you aren’t able to get them the outcome they want - how hard is it not to laugh?! 🤦🏽‍♀️🙄

How common is it for first year associates to spin wheels? In my 4th month, I spent 6 hours doing a return with 3 K-1 royalties, 2 Schedule C with few expenses, and the usual 1099-DIV/INT, including consolidated 1099. Budgeted time was 5 hours total. I have yet to get my return reviewed.

How do I ask for a role change? I currently work as a designer for a company and when I have down time I work on social media for the company. Social media doesn’t seem to be a huge focus at the moment but there is a lot of potential in the industry. How do I go about asking to run social media full time instead?

I started a small LLC on the side. My company is getting it's first client this month.

Wondering if any 🐟 have recommended resources on setting up initial consulting business thru an LLC.

Books, websites, tax strategies etc.

My LLC is already incorporated, but looking for guidance with the next steps (creating contracts, invoices, etc)

What are people doing with their student loans now that interest is paused? Is it better to keep paying them off or to invest/save the money?

When presented with designed screens for an app and asked to review it and finalise it, how long will it take you to pick up the trail and come back to the client with feedback? Say around 10 screens.

This isn’t anything original but I work in a small Southeast Asian country and would love to work in the states one day. Not necessarily anytime soon. Maybe in a couple of years but it seems near impossible to do the kind of work that would be worth any US agency’s time in this market. There are a bunch of really talented people here but for some reason the work just doesn’t reflect it. For those who made the jump across from a shit small market. How did you do it and do you have any advice?

There are many resources on good legal writing (Garner, Guberman, etc). Can anyone recommend a good resource on effective appellate oral advocacy?

I do miss seeing my colleagues sometimes but being able to actually use random breaks in the day that you get in transactional, especially as a junior, productively (work out, cook a meal, fold laundry) has made this job so much easier and sustainable for me. It’s still exhausting and so unpredictable and the December crush is killing me but I don’t know how anyone did this for more than a year or two pre-Covid when people spent all day and evening in the office.

Really wanting to move to Chicago for jobs and I’ve been interviewing a lot but haven’t had much luck. Do people local to get preference for interviews even in today’s remote/digital world?

If I get an offer of around 90-100k but am still interviewing at other firms and the recruiter asks me how much the offer needs to be to immediately accept, how much more should I say?

Is leaving Deloitte as a SC (soon to be manager) with 6.5 YOE worth leaving for S&O lead role at Google? Brand-to-brand I know it would be an upgrade, but how does S&O lead compare to consulting manager?

Have any folks here made a pivot to PE/VC from consulting? Why'd you do it, and what steps did you take?

Is it possible to exit from Deloitte strategy consulting into PE?

If you had similar offers to Meta and LinkedIn which would you accept?

Client has approached me unofficially about joining them. Would keep role on long term project, just as an employee rather than a consultant on more money. Anyone gone this route? Anything to watch out for?

Anyone here who made the exit from Big 4/MBB consulting to a VC? If so, I’d love to hear about how the experience is so far. (Not to mention the WLB and comp!) I’m considering a career change but have no one in my network I can go to for insights. Thx! 🙏🏾

Thoughts on jumping from consulting to a pre-sales job at a tech company? In desperate need of better wlb but I want to make sure I still have career progression and a decent bump in salary.

Seriously how do FAANG have so many vacant posts, half the fish here seem to exit to those five companies.

Jokes aside, what do people do after a few years at FAANGS or other big industry players? You are hired to deal with some problem for a year or two, but presumably after that they have no need for you so you’d have to move along... what do the exit opportunities look like?

how long has the UBS onboarding process taken folks? 4 weeks and waiting...

Trying to figure out how to describe "Brought in to replace unqualified client resource and manage technical team who were also all under qualified for a dumpster fire of a project where even the client didn't know what their internal processes were and the person I reported to was asking me how to do their job one week after I started and have somehow managed to keep the whole herd of cats more or less on track which is an absolute miracle" but like... professionally

Just found out I didn't get an offer for a role I thought I was fairly qualified for and was looking forward to moving. Feeling bummed that I don't have what it takes for the role and company.
