I liked industry more because I could apply it better to my time in consulting(or vice versa).

Sounds awful.

Boring ass admin work for years, mediocre pay, crazy hours, have to bill hours

Just become an auditor and not be 150k in debt with a useless degree outside of law.

I’d work at Starbucks before becoming an auditor

Looking for advice. A company came back with a counteroffer that I am still not happy with. Can I try to negotiate a second time or is that too much back and forth? What would you say?

Hi everyone!! This is exactly the group I've been looking for. I'll be starting my new (and first) consulting job at ZS Associates at the end of the month and I'm so nervous that I'll crash and burn. I'm very proud to be an ENFP, but the flaws that come along with it (distraction, procrastination, disorganization) seem like a recipe for disaster. I'm not sure if I should spend this next month trying to change my habits or if I should just embrace it. Anyway, what advice do you all have?

A new partner recently joined and my direct manager told the partner that I’d be a perfect person to work on his project. He said no because I don’t have an elite background. He also said “she didn’t go to a top school” in front of everyone (I went to a top public college in the US and he went to one of the top 50 in the UK). Plus, every time I ask a question, his response is “it’s too hard for you to understand. It’s an advanced level question”. Is it actually offensive or am I overreacting?
