Hello! I have an opportunity to review my boss and provide that feedback to his boss. Boss’s boss is a McKinsey guy, and I want to get straight to the point at my dissatisfaction without being a disgruntled employee.

Does anyone know how I can try to phrase the review in a way that will be most productive to an ex-McKinsey?

I don't know about the McKinsey side, but I'd focus on concrete examples and actionable suggestions. E.g. rather than "doesn't communicate well" say instead "I have asked for more details on projects on several occasions, and it was never given to me, leaving me unsure what I should be focused on. It would be helpful if [manager] gave clearer instructions and feedback."

Hi Everyone,

Need some inputs before making an important decision.
I have offer from Cognizant and they are promising that next quarter they will initiate my Canada visa. They are giving assurance when I spoke to them over call. Also, my current employer Accenture is also saying the same to retain me. Can I believe Cognizant? Also, Canada onsite is best in which company - Accenture or Cognizant. Please suggest based on your experience.

Thanks in advance!

Hypothetical: If you are new to a job and working part time on a startup and your team was accepted into Y Combinator, would you quit your job so you could go full time for the three months? You have other full time founders so your company would still attend without you, but presumably you would miss out on most of the experience and networking opportunities.
