Have been looking into Protiviti. Folks at this firm, how much is PPO insurance and are you all on a biweekly or semi-monthly paycheck schedule?

More layoffs last week at Leo B. Seems they went after more Seniors & $alaries. Thank you France.

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.

How was you memorial day weekend?

What do consultants do? I see Consultant titles pop up on here all the time and wonder what do y’all do? What are you consulting on? Seems interesting but i I googled and am still confused.

I've been almost 3 years in my previous company and never have I ever tasted any raise from them. I got transferred to different accounts and LOB it was so exhausting and finally when I decided to leave and send my resignation my Supervisor be like "you know you should be thankful of your job" To be honest the job was very stressful and supervisor at some point is somehow toxic but thankful I get to take my leave.

I am holding an offer from jpmc for Associate, package- 18lpa, yoe- 5.7. Is the pkg fine or jpmc could have offered me better?

😁I love it. Let’s start to grow it

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.

Rejected after decision round with BCG for summer 2023 internship. Received feedback interviewers enjoyed talking with me, I structured case well, performed math well, but didn’t drive the case on my own enough. Was encouraged to reapply for full time role next year. How do I put myself in a position to do better 10 months from now?

Yeah, that's what it is!! Delayed in the boarding process because of a missing flight attendant!! Guess who was raging last night. 😂😂😂

My RL didn’t have a formal mid year pre CRT review with me. He just pinged me and said: I’ll represent you. Utilization = 75% and average snapshots. Am I at risk?

Consulting firms, how does your company use utilization as a performance metric? And what are your targets (e.g, Junior practitioners vs senior)

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

will deloitte (or other big 4) pay for general assembly classes? anyone at big 4 take classes like UXD transition into digital offering?
