Went through a PE acquisition in Q4 last year. No opportunity to invest additional assets. We were given the specifics of the deal in a take-it-or-leave-it manner.

Co-invest in the deal as an adviser? Lol you wish. You get paid on the project but equity belongs to your client

Um wrong context. Nice try.

Hey everyone. I found out we are expecting our first child and I’m really nervous. I got into consulting one year ago and I’m up for promotion this year. With timing of our performance conversations I would have to inform I’m pregnant before outcomes - then shortly after the promotion effective date I would go on a leave for due date. I’ve worked really hard and I’m worried our wonderful news will throw chances with this :(- also if I don’t get promoted pretty sure it’s up or out. Any advice?

For the partners/mds/directors etc how are you protecting your money with the new administration?
