Hey. I was wondering, what are some jobs that you wouldn't take on the basis that you don't feel it's ethical? For me, I just would never work for a defense contractor or anything to do with the FBI, CIA, etc. I also don't ever plan on being a manager.

What’s the best advice for someone early in career?

What are your opinions on getting too much work in early phase of career? I have almost one year of experience and after switching to a new organisation I have like alot of work in my plate. I know it might be good for later part of career but just want to know your opinion. Tech stack .net, yoe <1

Hi fishes, I need some guidance.

I am currently into the SAP Security domain and I absolutely do not have any interest in it. I am planning to shift to development and have started on some courses on my own.

My question is, is there any future prospects in SAP UI5 and Fiori? Since my background is in SAP, I assume it will make a domain switch easier.

Or should I move into the JS-React path since there seems to be a lot of demand? But my worry is about my lack of actual work experience

Can someone offer some advice on how to potentially join finance transformation at the Big 4?

Trying to get my GRE Quant score from a 160 to a 165. Feel like it’s a harder jump than when starting from a lower base - will appreciate any strategy tips or suggested Quant resources!

Hey fishies!

Trying to break into creative strategy at an ad agency (no prior exp at one.) I have some mock campaigns and ads to show but nothing that's gone live. Any advice on how to get my foot in the doors of one of the top agencies? (Career pages, LI hasn't been working very well)

Was having a chat with a recruiter who does a lot of work for me so out curiosity I am interested to hear what do consultants look for when they are moving into the industry.
- What are some of the key elements you look for vs deal breakers?
- What types of firms and industry are of interest?

Hi Guys I was a BA and recently became a full fledge PO in my new job. Can you share which areas to focus on to perform well.

Will getting a low tier rating also affect your career when you are switching companies?

Curious for those in public accounting right now….are any of you open to leaving still with busy season coming closer? I know when I was in public, I was hesitant from 1/15 until 4/15 but wasn’t sure if this is still the norm? I want to be respectful and not reach out to people if it’s too late as to not tempt them if it would look poorly on their resume. Would love your advice!

Looking to pivot out of a top pharma marketing/ad agency and into consulting. Ultimately want to leverage both experiences to move client side or to a healthcare start up.

What are the best firms for this type of transition and why?

Rising 2nd year here: been rethinking my choice as an M&A attorney. I've had a rough go of it over the first year-and-a-half of practice and am thinking about moving to a different practice area. I'd like to stay on the transactional side, but am not quite sure what areas I can leverage my corporate and M&A skills in. I was thinking T&E (i.e. business succession planning, etc.)

Would greatly appreciate input from others.

Recently got my CPA license in August & considering leaving public accounting for Industry. Should I expect my new role to pay for my CPA license renewals/AICPA membership/CPE classes? These things add up &I feel like should be considered when transitioning. Thoughts?

Hi! I’m Head of Insights at an agency in London. I built a team of 4 and oversee and train junior and mid-level insights analysts. I’ve been told that I’ll be promoted to Director next year but I might need to move to NYC because of my husband’s job. I’m a bit worried about finding a job similar to the one that I have now in NYC, especially because I’m Latin and I know how competitive New York can be. Any thoughts and recommendations?

Hello - what is the EYP role for 5-6 YOE? coming from US and think it might be junior mgr but want to confirm. Thank you.

Can you please suggest to me which one is better for job security and learning new things.

Thanks.

How long did it take you to find the right position the first time you went in-house? I am 5 months into it and regretting turning down the (lowball) offer I got a couple months ago.

I know I'm in the minority here (and I swear this isn't a brag) but is anyone else less stressed this busy season working from home, and finding issues focusing because of it? My work is getting done, but just very very slowly. I'm able to sleep throughout the night and not wake up early (which is a huge negative right now) and literally feel no need to stay glued to my computer as in prior years. Am I broken?

Has anyone had their LCA location updated so they can work from a different remote work location than their home office city? Did your firm take care of the process for you?

Any tips for 30 min design remote whiteboard challenges in interviews?

How do I keep my team engaged when I am also struggling to stay motivated?

Our department has had a lot of turnover within the last few months, all of which were from different reasons (school, family issues, opportunities close to home, etc.). It has been a challenge to divide the workload, while still trying to remain flexible and provide a work-life balance.

However, I’m starting to feel stressed and disengaged. Any suggestions to make it through the changes?

Winstead or Jackson Walker people in Dallas (or if you know someone in these office) — how often do you work weekends and what time do you generally “log off” for the day? Also curious as to average annualized hours. Thank you so much!

Curious about PA M1 bonus. IA to be precise. What’s the percentage?

Guys, can you list down your experience in working with EY, which you are missing in your previous job. Or, something good at your previous job which is missing in EY. Please comment those. It can be anything like good project, managers, WFH, benefits, flexibilities, Hi, 

I want to cancel this 200Rs Netflix membership for this month. How to change this in my card settings, I am not able to find the settings in ICICI website to cancel this. 

I have a coworker who keeps spouting comparative odds and situations in regards to the safety of the vaccine. Such as: you're twice as likely to get hit by lightening than have blod clots from JJ. It's very annoying and I find it to be really inapprorpriate, maybe because it's pushy or just I find these comparative things to be a bit irrelevant. How does one handle something like that? Can you shut the person down without starting a spat?

I'm working at a startup where I feel like I've spent as much time trying to deal with product issues vs working on roadmap items. I get this is bound to happen in a start up but is this common? I'm not sure what to do. It seems like no one really thought about the architecture or ux as much as they should have in my opinion. I need some advice.

Any companies hiring for Forensic Accounting (Investigations, Litigations, AML, etc.) I have both my CPA and CFE.

I am a sixth-year associate overseeing a second year. They are an exceptionally good associate. I am honestly shocked at the work product I receive and the way they go above and beyond. The issue I have is that they sometimes take awhile to turn things around. For example, I ask for a draft response to the client, and they take three-four days. I know they’re busy, but I would like to address this in a positive way. Any suggestions?

A recruiter from a firm I applied to reached out about scheduling an interview and I responded 5 minutes later saying I am available whenever. Over two days have gone by and I’ve heard nothing. Is that odd?

Meeting people while in consulting and in your early 30s...? Possible?

AITA? If my SO of 1 year wants to get a dog, do I get an opinion? We don’t live together

I’m actually cheating since I am on Grove Street 😃

Am I the only one left at the end of the month trying to bill 10hour days to meet hours because I slacked off at the beginning of the month? It’s a vicious cycle. Then the end of the month hits and I’m so exhausted that I need to take it was the next week... and the cycle continues

I admitted a bunch of people just so that we can have more of a critical mass here. Welcome again comrades! Try and be respectful and above all, no simping for capitalism!

Happy Friday comrades! Sorry this place has been pretty quiet, I've been moving to a new apartment.

Fun thread time.

Comment with your favorite garbage capitalist takes on socialism. I'll start:

If you love socialism so much, why don't you empty your bank account and live as a feral mountain man in the woods?

Welcome, comrades! My hope is for this group to be a respite from the bleak capitalist wasteland, as well as a place to share resources and information about getting organized and supporting socialist endeavors. This group needs an admin, I can't do it myself. Comment here if you're interested!

Is this a group for socialists or also for those that (in a constructive way) enjoy discussing socialism?
I’m Scandi and more social democrat than socialist, but have respect for socialists and enjoy trying to find a way to convince myself of certain aspects.

Anyone considering voting for Trump?

Would love to hear your considerations if his neo-hegalianism within economic policies are worth voting for even in the face of his fascistic tendencies

I would suggest having a thread or threads about defending socialism against capitalism. In the real world anti-socialist ideas/arguments are made all the time and for those lessed versed in socialist thought, it can be hard to defend one's position and perhaps even be persuaded bythe capitalists. Just an idea

Happy Friday comrades! How's everyone doing in the broken capitalist dystopia we find ourselves in? Any exciting plans for the weekend?

It's pretty weird to see how terrified people in the US get about the "threat to society" that socialism poses while ignoring the fascism that is *already here*.

I know you don't want another USSR, neither do I. I also don't want another Nazi Germany, so stop voting fascists into our government. The closest we have to socialists in Congress are people like Bernie, who's not starting a revolution. Meanwhile almost all of the R's in the Senate are against a bill that would prevent another coup.

What's the deal with everyone saying that Scott Meserowitz should be the next presidential candidate for the U.S. Socialist Party?
