Has anyone managed a 24" suitcase as a carry on, on a southwest flight? I think I remember seeing that was an acceptable size; just curious if the reality of carrying on that size luggage was truly a non-issue.

How much international travel do you do? How many YOE do you have? Do you travel business class?

Been feeling very low for a very long time. Working with a Big Four for 7+ years (since graduation) and was excited to join consulting as I get easily bored, wanted to grow at an exponential scale and wanted to travel for work. Cut to now, though I am well sought after for my skills and consistently got 25%+ bonus, I feel I have achieved nothing cuz I didn't get the promotions that I worked for, people have been chosen over me for overseas travel and destroyed my social life. Venting only! :)

Is it a bad look as an analyst to wear a $1-2k watch around SM/partners?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

Deloitte folks - what's with the new structure? Is the monitor team pulling folks from S&O for staffing?

Fishes at T2 firms, is the consulting path worth much? Starting at a T2 soon and everyone talks about accelerated careers or high exit ops but I don’t actually know what that truly translates too. It seems a bit abstract

Would love to get your input on this but how do you guys feel about consulting, especially with a STEM background? I have worked on studies where we make recommendations that anybody with a basic scientific/engineering knowledge will say “yea, no f-ing sh*t. We want to do that too. But it’s impossible to achieve from technical perspective with the money we have. You don’t think we already thought of that?”

All I want to do is curl up in bed with hot tea and a good book. Recommendations for if I ever achieve said dream?
