Alvarez & Marsal Hello! Is anyone here currently in the Alvarez & Marsal - PEPI and has experience in the CFO services or Real Estate groups? Curious to hear more and potentially get a referral.

For some background, I am a CPA with 5.5 years work experience - 3 years at PwC in financial services audit and 2.5 years working internally in real estate, hospitality, and SaaS both in accounting + Corporate FP&A/strategic finance.

Thanks!

Hello!

I have been working in IT Audit (Internal and Third Party) for the last few years and have recently made a move to a cyber security role at almost entry level in a growing product based firm. While I am really happy about the future prospects here, I don’t want to look lost when I actually begin working. Since I have been in an audit role my entire life, what all resources can I refer to for continuous upskilling? I’d like to have sky as the limit here and would appreciate any help!

Hello All,

Last week i got an email from

I clearly mentioned that i got selected and waiting for the HR discussion but she was saying in the portal it is showing that my proof was not verified and again has to go for the interview.
Do i need to take all my interview process again? Has anyone faced these kinds of issues in Accenture.

Thanks in advance!

I'm drowning in one-off business logic or planning requests ever since the last shuffle of devs. I'm the most senior, and def know the most, but on a team where our devs wear many hats, it means that I don't get to code nearly as much as I want to.

I also feel like these one-off requests do nothing for my career, as they're not seen as valuable to anyone other than the requesters.

Just over a year post BL. Still a lawyer but more balanced. Still crazy to me how all those weird things about corporate BL are actually not inescapable realities of practice, e.g. not having free time on weekday evenings, work email notifications, having to take my laptop on vacation, caveating accepting a birthday party invitation by saying "if nothing comes up". The happiest surprise: work is still intellectually challenging because of the randomness of being an in-house generalist.

Newbie fish here, question for the BCG folks. I am currently in the process for a knowledge analyst position, specialized in an industry I really like. I enjoy the fact that they have a client-facing track, and you act as sort of a bridge between research insights and cases. Do you confirm this is the case? Or it's more fuss and it's a B-role of just supporting without critical tasks? I understand BCG should have higher consideration of KTs compared to the others.
