Guidehouse fish - GT is doing a miserable job at giving us the brass tacks info on what to expect when we become GH employees. Can anyone share what utilization requirements are by level over at GH? How much maternity/paternity leave? PTO/FTO? Do you have an end of December firm holiday like GT does?

GT people, how unlimited is your unlimited vacation? Or is it more like limited vacation compared to a formal PTO policy. I am thinking it has to be harder to take vacation now than it used to

Spouse and I are about to book a riviera maya vacation for early November 2021. We’re both vaccinated, we know we’ll need to produce a negative test. Any other reason it would be unwise to go? I want to make sure we aren’t overlooking any factors. Thank you!

Hi everyone, I am looking to join a team ! I have 4 years of recruiting experience within the healthcare and staffing industry. I would love a remote position or on-site positions within the DMV area. Please let me know if you know of or have any opportunities available. Thank you !

Anyone have advice for advancing in your current role? My co-worker was hired in at manager level but somehow “proved” he was actually doing director level work and got a title promotion and salary increase in less than a year. I also went above and beyond my job as well (covering for him for a month while he was away on paternity leave) while taking on other projects outside of my job title and got zip—no raise or recognition. Any advice would be appreciated!

Do any of you save specifically for vacation every year? Husband and making a case for saving about 10% for yearly family vacations. We currently save or invest 40% of our income. Thoughts? Best practices for yearly vacations?

Would switching from S& to LEK boost, hurt, or not change exit ops to PE/ PE ops/Corp dev & strat roles? Also looking at benefits of not having independence and utilization requirements. Thanks!

Would you accept a job offer with no 401k match?

If you do billable work on a given PTO/vacation day, do you still count that day as vacation? Or do you get that vacation day "back"? Or do you only get the part that you billed "back"? (Or some other option.)

@EYfishes what are the best resources to get details on EY fertility benefits and process?

As holidays come around, the family has upped their questions about when we are having kids and why we haven’t yet. Doesn’t help that my sibling with one other kid just announced her second pregnancy. Definitely happy for her, but don’t feel like I need to explain to the whole family that we are struggling.

Learned on the day of the deadline to enroll, that my partner's employer offers voluntary participation on a deferred compensation plan. First time I hear of such a benefit/option after working for years! Any general (i.e. not plan-specific) lessons-learned, gotchas, pointers to offer as we will have to quickly decide to enroll or not?

TIA!

Hello! I’m based in NYC and looking for my next role. I work in the digital strategy/brand strategy space. I have experience across multiple industries (tech/telecom/Pharma (dermatology)/beauty and skin care and I am looking for a Director or VP role (my last job was a VP). I would like to keep my base of at least $180k (is this reasonable if I look for Director positions too?) Would love to land something soon before we hit the holiday season. Do you think what I am looking for is reasonable?

Has anyone negotiated a 401k match to begin immediately? I have a great offer but a 1 year wait. I’m super focused on building retirement and really don’t want to wait for a match.
