Hello! I’m Canadian and would ideally like to move to Switzerland. I have 2 years of AML Banking experience and am in Big 4 Consulting at the moment (Risk). I’m 24. How can I go about this?

Look at internal opportunities and talk to your manager about international assignments / rotations as well. All the big 4 have offices here - mostly in Zurich.

At the other big 4 firms - what are the details of the maternity leave benefit? How long does someone have to be employed before qualifying? How long is the leave before labor & how long is the leave after? Thanks!

Has anyone brought their concerns about this turbulent transition to their higher ups on their teams and to be told that associates and senior associates are just being impatient? Gonna keep that in mind when I go to another big 4 because I don’t have the privilege of saying I got any sort or retention bonus- or anything at all for that matter- to entice me to stay.

What is it like working at Monitor Deloitte with the Strategic Growth Transformation team (under S&A)? I have 4 YOE from a Big 4 and got an offer for Senior C in NY.
1- What is the culture like: How are the people? Hours? Are you happy working there?
2- Is there actual strategy work or is it mostly transformation, with the word "strategy" being slapped to every single project? How long are the projects? Are most project sponsors actually at the Csuite level?
3- Is Monitor thriving or dying?
