I went through a serious depression last year with another consulting company. I ended up going to Deloitte, moving cities to be closer to friend/family, and couldn’t be happier. During my depression I struggled to find an outlet to reduce stress. I finally found that exercise and stopped the drinking for awhile. Doctor put me in an antidepressant. I have come off of it but ultimately you have to do what’s best for you. Look at what’s causing the depression and make the changes.

No. But I made it clear what city I wanted to be in during the interview. They do not do COL adjustments and I was moving to a significantly cheaper location.

Think of a better future for you and the things in your life that you love and care about. Once you and the firm have a point of divergence, follow your gut. These forms are great building platforms, but they are not designed for everyone.

For the introverts, how do you (politely) set an expectation that you don't want to attend team hangouts beyond once a week? Current team dynamic is sensitive so prefer to avoid a direct convo.

I & My girl friend can’t stop fighting for few weeks. We decided to take a little break being away from each other.

Breakup? Feeling terrible thinking about breaking up when she is pregnant, but I’m not ready for a baby.

Welcome to our pre-k inclusive classroom. Even with 8 students, and only face to face for 4 hours, we struggle. We struggle being heard through our masks. We struggle with social distancing. We struggle as we find ourselves constantly reminding students to keep their masks on. We struggle to keep them engaged and to teach. One thing we do not struggle with- building connections and showing out love for each child.

Hi Fishes

I have offer with citi. But I have poor credit history/cibil score. Will citi check credit history too on background check and reject candidate?
I have another offer with TCS which will lapse by tomorrow if I don't agree.
Please share your inputs about citi's background check.

Anyone know who the agency is for Biogen, Alzheimer’s treatment for the campaign “it’s time we know”?
