Hello All happy Monday! What are some low stress jobs in the commercial sector?

Is the CFE pretty easy?

Does anyone else constantly put off putting their time in as they go and then hate their life at the end of the month? Then once you get caught up, you don’t want to enter more time, and so you fall behind again. It’s a vicious cycle.

I work in a firm that is known for litigation defense. I’ve been developing my own plaintiffs practice as well. I am able to pay the bills with my hourly defense work, which gives me time to focus on a handful of high value PI case a year on contingency. I was recently negotiating a case and was told part of the reason the claims rep/OC was jerking me around was because they didn’t see me as a plaintiffs attorney. Is there any way to change this perception or does it just come over time?

So is it just me or do people who have been doing ID for decades generally fall into one of two groups? The first group are cynical people who have been divorced, their kids hate them, etc. then the second group are BS artists who are skilled at avoiding both work and responsibility for anything?

Hi Everyone. I work in Quality Engineering (QA /Test management) .

Hi Fishes,
Should one resign only after background verification is done by the new company?

Hello Fishes,

Deloitte USI is offering me 15LPA fixed and 1lack joining bonus and HCL offering me 23LPA fixed. I've tried to negotiate with deloitte but they are not ready to negotiate and asking me to join on the same CTC which was initially provided. I'm confused to select the company. It would be really helpful if anyone could share their views. Thanks.

I’m rather new to international tax (6 months) and looking to dabble with various types of consulting projects once compliance slows down. Does anyone know any fun/interesting areas, groups, etc in international tax that caters well to a JD background?

I've cleared the technical and managerial round in Citiustech. I will have my HR discussion tmrw. My current CTC is 12.75 LPA. I've asked for 17 LPA fixed during the initial stage of interview schedule. Will they offer as my expectation ?

Well, I was the one who broke it off. I couldn’t get him to love me the way I needed or even respect me enough. It’s been 6 weeks of not seeing each other. We messaged this week. He doesn’t get it…. His messages show he still doesn’t know what he wants. Yet, if I am totally honest, I hate how part of me wishes he would do a grand gesture/finally decide to be a better man. It’s delusional. It’s crazy how love can be so rosy, sweet & blinding that the red flags seem surmountable.

What curriculum are you using for early childhood? Do you find it to be beneficial for the students?

What's the shiny new toy you're impressing clients with this month?

I’ve recently learned about invoice discounting and want to understand how good or bad is it from short term investment perspective. Is there any other instrument that I can look for apart from stocks or liquid funds?

Is there any bowl that discusses crypto investments?

I wanted to get your thoughts on the following:
1. Health Insurance for your parents (assuming they are 60+)
2. Term life options for myself (under 30)

I recently went through a medical family emergency and realised how important insurance is. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I'm relatively new to stock market investments and have tried to build a balanced portfolio for the long term. Should I hold the stocks for long term or does it make sense to book profits in between ?

Hello! I’m a clinical healthcare worker and am currently working on a master’s in finance to pivot to healthcare consulting.

I’m trying to get an internship next summer (I have the time off work) but am having difficulty finding internships for non-MBA master’s degree candidates. (I have a clinical MA and doctorate & it’s been an auto-reject from analyst internships.)

Would anyone be willing to connect for internships or work for companies that love non-traditional candidates? Thank you

Which top consulting firms, if any, will pay for your MBA?

Anyone at mgr level making >200 K? Location and practice?

So many posts about how great a $400+ bag is because you can get it fixed for free and customer service is great. I'll just be over here with my $25 10+ year old Target bag that's never had a problem

Yes - I got the upgrade the partner and SM traveling with me didn't.

What will you admit to your anonymous FB fam that you won't admit to your work colleagues? Gay but not out, embezzle expenses, sleeping with your boss, wear the same underwear to save suitcase space?

Best consulting firms with best WLB? Do they exist? Young professional starting to think about where I'd like to work hard to end up in the next 5-10 years.

Shall I disclose reason for leaving a firm during my initial call with a recruiter from said firm, if I was laid off? Are they privy to that information. Ironically being recruited by that same firm

Best consulting firms to work for that will allow 100% remote work indefinitely regardless of what clients do?

Is it naive to hope that there could be a job out there that I actually LIKE doing as opposed to just forcing myself to do it for the paycheck? I work for a great company with (mostly) great people but still find myself wishing I could be doing anything else throughout the workday. After a number of different jobs in industry and consulting have left me feeling the same after a year or so, I'm starting to wonder if it'll always be this way and actually liking work is just out of reach.

I’m finding it so hard to be motivated at work. I think it’s a mix of wfh burnout, living at home and not socializing/doing anything new, scope creep on my project leading to long hours, and being intellectually bored. What keeps you in this job? What has motivated you to stay?

Under trump tax plan: earn 120k, pay 33% taxes, net pay is 80k. Earn 112k, pay 25%, net pay is 84k. Approaching a salary bump, what would you do?

Amex rewards is not as well as cards like Marriott or Citi AAdvantage. Isn't it better sometimes to use your card for expenses, but report it correctly and be reimbursed?

Does anyone know how much demand/talent managers make in ny? Is it comparable to a consulting salary?

Are any top consulting firms hiring for experienced analysts currently? I know ACN and some others are cyclical for resources 2-3 years out of college, but I’m looking to make a move sooner than fall

If matched from SPG to Marriott platinum and I'm not currently staying in hotels... how long will the Marriott platinum status last me?

How much money do you guys owe on your credit cards? I am at around 15K, is that completely outrageous?

Was just denied boarding by an Air Canada gate agent because my passport is "damaged". Dozens of boarder agents before her had noissue with it. Now I'm missing my fam's wedding. What's my recourse?

Heard frm a friend at pwc that in consulting they have per diems. Is it for all practitioners and practice? Seems tight on budget.
