Feedbacks on moving from Accenture to BCG Platinion from a career perspective? And from a WLB one?

anybody aware of tcs negotiating after resigning? if yes, how much one can bargain in terms of % for a 10 yrd exp guy.

Thanks!

Hi, I applied for a BFSI domain consultant position at TCS through Linkedin. Next day two people took my interview and said they are good to go with my profile. I might have one more tech round and HR will contact. After 4-5 days HR sent Ibegin link to create my profile and update details. Then it's been 3 weeks no other update. Whenever I contact the person who took my interview he keep saying its in process please wait. Is it normal procedure in TCS? How long usually takes.

Has anyone negotiated a 401k match to begin immediately? I have a great offer but a 1 year wait. I’m super focused on building retirement and really don’t want to wait for a match.

Who day trades / swing trades with another job? Any tips?

In particular wondering if it’s a sustainable side income or just for fun, and what are you trading (stocks, crypto, forex, futures, etc.)?

Had a full on panic attack at work today because of all the social media coverage of Ukraine. I’m on a 24 social media (Instagram, Facebook and Twitter only) time out. 25% of my job is social media 🥺 I’m feeling Burt out. Just needed to get this out into the world.

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and just started medication treatment, and I didn’t realize something was missing this entire time. My brain finally feels so calm!!

Studying for the bar, and my first 2 years of practice exacerbated my symptoms so badly. I couldn’t keep up with the long hours at work! I feel like I have a fighting chance now!

I’m so bad at writing the background/ facts section for briefs… it always gets heavily edited and no one is giving me constructive feedback other than “advocate more”. In contrast, my legal argument section is generally without edits. For context, first defense lit job post appellate clerkship. Is this normal?? Any tips for getting better other than “advocating more”?

Can you share first year salary for midsize firms? I'm in NJ, but curious to hear other markets. Also billable targets? Thanks!

Any consulting partners in Toronto interested in taking on a mentee? 6 YoE @ PwC, goal to make partner at a consulting firm (not necessarily my own). Would really value balanced external perspective! DM if interested thanks

Interviewing with a start up and they use equity shares. Is this the same as rsu? Quick google search showed no definitive answer.

Any VCs hiring an analyst with consulting experience?

does the mckinsey survey mean anything more than nothing? gotta assume a referral trumps the survey

What was your reasoning for seeking an MBA?

Welcome Everyone 🙂

Hi fishes. Currently interviewing with Accenture for the Talent & Organization (T&O) team for the change management profile. Wanted a quick comparison of the work life balance, career progression, perks and benefits compared to EY GDS. Thanks in advance.

want to interview at MBB again. Last year i had started the process but had to stop the process due to severe family emergency. What followed was depression and im doing fairly better now. I am Leaving Big 4 to join a tech focused Bank. But i feel like I should reach out to recruiter and start the process again. Just not sure if it’s the right move since im joining a new company. Feel it’ll look bad trying to join MBB after starting at a new bank. What to do?

Recently got laid off in the middle of my search for an exit from consulting. Will this come up in background checks? If so, how do I address if it’s brought up?

I have an offer with a start date in November. It’s 2+ months away, but should I consistently reach out to the recruiter? I don’t know what to say though, since I have a start date, but want to keep them me on their radar.

I recently interviewed for a position I was excited about. I like my job but this position seemed like a great fit. I met with five different individuals including a partner. Everyone was extremely nice. I received positive signaling and found out almost a week later that I didn’t receive the position. I have absolutely no idea why. Is it typical for companies to make you go through so many different interviews only to reject you?

PTO payouts when you voluntarily leave [insert massive firm here] - how do they work? I.e. how much would one get for 100 hours of unused PTO?

It seems like every time I log into LinkedIn the people who are “starting new positions” are people who already had jobs in the first place. I’m honestly ready to just give up. Unemployed for 8 months bc of covid layoff. Like what’s the point when companies see me as less valuable than those that already have jobs. How do you guys hold up? I understand life isn’t fair, but there just seems to be no end to this.

Fishes, would you be willing to move to a new company for $20K increase in your base pay? No sign-on bonus and not a target company.

People who pivoted/trying to pivot to PM - what resources did you use/do you recommend? There are some online courses or boot camps that have $1-2k tuition fees - worth it? Which ones are worth it?

Did anyone put a two week notice and was asked to leave immediately because you were on bench? Not leaving for a competitor

Does anyone have opinions on PepsiCo? Interviewing with their growth strategy team who are mostly ex-MBB from top MBA programs. The work seems interesting and up my alley (CPG Strategy) but this bowls obsession w/ tech makes me think I should be focusing my attentions on FAANG

Is it too early to apply for jobs with Q4 start?

I'm thinking I won't be getting promoted if not laid off at the end Q2 or sooner. What are some good exit ops for an associate with 2 yoe in tech consulting? Exp in Cloud, PMO, IT Risk, and SoD.

Is it easier to go from product management to customer success, or customer success to product management?

Would you take a lateral move to job that raises you from 48 to 80 if it means taking an extra year or two to get promoted to SC?
Will get a promo at current gig, but base just isn’t a lot :(

First phone interview next week, any general advice?

Anyone ever interview with a firm covid times and not have a video call? Second to final round and everything has just been a phone call so far.. seems little odd and it’s a f500 company

What should one disclose/not disclose in an exit interview or should it be mum’s the word, don’t burn any bridges, any advice fellow fish?

Thinking of going on a sabbatical and using the time to dust off resume, get certs and find a new position.Anyone else recommend this? Currently being distracted by billable work that adds 0 to resume

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.

Anyone have insight on working at Altman and Vilandrie?
