Got an interview invite from EY for a Senior Manager position in the GCR team. Is GCR a specialty group ? I’m with the financial services team at PWC (hedge funds & a little bit of Venture Capital experience) . Any feedback ?

The name of the sub service line would help. There are a lot of groups within GCR, even after you narrow it to financial services (FSO) clients.

Don’t know yet.

Is this a lateral move or a promotion? Just wondering why the move from one big 4 to another at the SM level (I’m a SM and looking to make a move but never considered another big 4 firm)

Lateral. Need a change in ambience, Plus I’m on a work visa which would restrict me moving to the industry as these smaller fund offices doesn’t sponsor visa.
I understand that making a lateral move to another big4 isn’t the greatest move , but i made SM last year and I don’t think EY would hire me one level higher.

Hi, I’m looking to switch into marketing (entry level), as consulting is not aligned with my skill set/passions. Does anyone know of any ad agencies in LA that have good work-life balance, good pay, PTO, great culture, promotions, training? Your help means more than you know!!! Looking to do informational interviews and try to network my way in, as I feel the barrier to entry was much harder than anticipated. Anything helps, thank you so much!

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.
