Good consultant, great husband, great step dad, shitty son, great daughter. Unfortunately my step son is fucking it all up and causing daily fights/issues. Being on the road sucks, but it definitely makes life less stressful as I can focus on work and not his horrible behavior, but I come home to a shit storm every weekend. Good times...

Anyone else struggling to make meaningful friendships in b school? It’s only been two weeks but I’m struggling to go beyond superficial talk with anyone

Hey all, I’m considering a position with KPMG’s Deal Advisory / M&A service line as an M. What are your thoughts on 1) work life balance, 2) business outlook, and 3) culture? The salary is very competitive.

Let’s hear it: how many hours a week are you working from now til April?

Need to feel better about my schedule 😅

Recently switched from audit to advisory. Not loving it, want to disconnect and switch careers/take a role outside of accounting. Thinking about putting two weeks in before the break without anything lined up. Thoughts?

how is worklife balance in gep, navi mumbai?

What would you choose, Big 4 or T2 firms like GT or BDO?

I have been in Deloitte since ever and wanted to consider moving to other firms.
Does it necessarily have to be another Big4?

What are the advantages/disadvantages of moving to a Tier 2 firm?

Would be really helpful if someone who has seen both sides could elaborate in terms of difference in culture, pay, work life balance, etc.

Anyone here ever been scared by some major differences in materialism with your partner? I’ve been considered “boujee” by some friends but my girlfriend of just over a year is on a whole other level. Lately because of many of her friends getting engaged / married, rings have been mentioned and she’s said pretty much she wouldnt be happy with under 25k.

I come from a very middle class upbringing, and so does she, although she’s influenced by friends dating professional athletes and stuff

How do you plan to care for yourself this week?

How is Salesforce project in Coforge? WLB etc..

GV70 vs GLC 300 please cast your vote!
My fiancée and I have been struggling for this way too long (disregard the price)

Does anyone know about Stabilix solutions? Growth opportunities and wlb?

My friend’s ex is trying to win her back and she hates being single and like I ~should~ discourage this, but on a selfish level I want to be able to go out on his boat again this summer. He’s not a particularly horrible guy, but they’re a bad match when it comes to values/goals, which is why it didn’t work out the last time.

I want to find people who have made working 10+ hours norm in consulting. Seriously man...

GF is 32 and I’m 28. She wants kids within 2 years, understandably. I never envisioned having kids that early (more like late 30s), but I like her a lot. Anyone else gone through something similar?

Anyone in GT Accounting Advisory? What's the day to day like and how is the WLB?

I’d love to hear about your transition from a single franchise dealer to a dealer group.

Graduating senior. Have choices between MBB and SWE at FAANG. Not sure what to do. Long term I’d love to be in a small startup or a leader in a tech company. Not sure which path is better for that. Any thoughts?

Hey There,
Currently working as Electrical engineer in medical device company. Been applying to few battery and electrical engineering jobs at amazon in seattle and california locations. If anyone could provide referral for the job, that would be very helpful.

A friend is considering deferring an offer (stem PhD) for 1 year straight out of undergrad to work in NY, either in a research institution or a biotech. She does not have any real work experience outside of her lab (3 years) and an adjacent internship. Another factor is she is just generally feeling burnt out on school after the last few years.
To what extent did you find that a year or two of work impacts prospects coming out of PhD? How might a year off from school impact her PhD work itself?

Hi everyone, I am working towards a career shift into management consulting, specialising in Strategy & Restructuring services to be specific. I am looking for a referral to a T2 firm within the Middle East if possible. Would love to connect, learn from your experience and take your advice on how to successfully land a role in the industry! (Currently based in Dubai)

Hi Big 🐟,

Can somebody refer me into EXL services, As I have got shortlisted on Job ID 568888 but getting no response from their side. It will be more convenient to go through the interview process.
As well I'm looking for a change into O2C(Billing, Cash Application & Contract Management). I have 5 years of experience in the accounting & auditing field.

Anyone have any insight on clinical research organization roles that an MLS could move laterally into?

I feel like every company lies about “working your way up.” You’re never allowed to blatantly say that you don’t like your position and you’d like to transition to HR or Finance. It’s almost as if once you get in claims, you’re stuck.

If you’re a manager and you see an employee that wants to branch out into a different department, why would you keep them boxed in for 2+ years?

Are there some background mechanics that I’m missing?

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?

Is TCS trying to retain people currently? As per my information, retention policy was put on hold after April. Is there anyone who was retained after April?

In terms of WLB and less stressful job, which one is better? to move in management role or stay in technical after having 11 yrs of experience.

I have booked my h1b visa appointment in sept. Does my visa date effect due to travel ban until dec 31st . I am hoping I could get stamping done and enter US after travel ban gets lifted.

Does anyone know someone who has been fired from their firm for political activism? Please state why and the context.

Are there FP&A roles in PE firms?

Guys, I am looking for an opportunity in Testing. Have an experience of 22 years across Core Banking, Investment Banking and Non Banking domain as well. Currently i was working as a PM Delivery. If anyone has any info please share me personally.
