Good bye PwC/Veritas/Newco. It was fun while it lasted.

Got offer from BCG for ECT. Read numerous comments about ECT being not attractive compared to Generalist track. Also heard challenges about billability/utilization. Any views/ guidance appreciated!
I am not super keen to become a partner (selling) and main reason to join will be working with different clients, smart talented people and a good brand. End goal (at the moment atleast) is to stay for few years and return to the industry. 15 YOE

Currently, I am working in a metal production. I have 3 years experience in this role. I am learning Data Science from percipio platform of Skillsoft. It has 4 courses from Data Analytics to Data Scientist. Is tgat enough for me.

Assuming that I'm okay with a salary of 70K and more, and that I really don't want to work at a law firm. Is it going to be difficult for me to return to law with two years of experience and one year working in a legal adjacent role.

I'm a masochist. PRQ tied up a ton of my assets during the last run up in early 2021 while crabbing and dumped just as bad as other alts in May. I just heard whispers of a big cex listing and put some money back into it. 😬

Is there a corporate way to bring up to senior leaders that an IC is causing issues across multiple teams because they are demanding and also doesn’t collaborate well?

How would you compare the skill set of people who work on public company audits compared to those who do solely do non-public company audits?

Hello, first post here. Outside sales, merchant services/card processing. I’m primarily a welder but I work 4 10-hour shifts typically then I try sales the last three days. I’ve done it long enough to where I’m confident and comfortable going to new businesses, establishing some rapport with business owners. But it seems like a lot of businesses see this as a waste of time, even adding services and cutting costs. I guess either I’m looking for advice or considering not doing this anymore.

If I had a dollar for every time my boss screamed “UGH C’MON” at his computer... It’d be enough to buy myself the medical coverage my company doesn’t provide. 🙃

Hi Fishies. Looking for a good real people/comedy directors who can work with lower budgets . Would love any recommendations. Thanks.

I got into UChicago Booth and MIT Sloan. Convince me to ditch Cambridge/Boston for Chicago.

Would you categorize this industry as diverse? I was just reading an article on USA Today that centered around the lack of diversity in finance, especially in positions of power. I’d have to agree with them based on what I’ve noticed.

Is PwC actually selling their Federal practice? It has a scent of fake news.

Anyone here from Deloitte? I heard they give $20K bonuses for TS/SCI.... sounds false

For those who don’t have their CPAs, Who long did it take you to pass the CGFM? How much time did you spend studying for each exam?

Any subcontractors here? I feel like I'm living a double life and having to eat my own time to meet the current project and plan for the next. Then when I bring it up to the lead, I feel micromanaged

Anyone here work State and Higher Ed practice for advisory for Deloitte. Thinking of making a switch and want to know what culture is like

Raise and bonus were a huge disappointment and just had a PPMD lie to my face about a project. 10 years with Deloitte and great reviews, but it’s time to move on. Looking for feedback from other companies.

I'm here for the pants party.

I’ve decided to make my career in the government side of consulting. Been doing it 10 years. Seems hard to find jobs where I manage people unless at a big 4. Anyone else find this true?

I wouldn't believe 20k but probably a huge bonus as TS/SCI is hard to get
