Hi all, I joined tcs on 28 Dec 2021, got project call on 29 and he said I'm already allocated to project and have my client interview on 3rd Jan 2022. I'm bit worried about the round with Thomson Reuters will it be very strict, as I have very less experience. And I have not received any laptop also yet. Kindly suggest.. What will be the consequences here. TIA

I'm definitely more productive remote. The office just provides too many opportunities for socializing. Plus I wouldn't feel ethical billing my client for my midday nap.

It's a little too early in the project to be receiving an ALL CAPS email. Especially on a weekend.

When you hear your manager discussing how he "isn't too thrilled about the idea of a project in Dubai..." And you fight the urge to jump up and down screaming "PUT ME IN, COACH! PUT ME IN!"

When you realize half this job is swatting sh.. out of the way so you can focus on the stuff that actually moves the needle for the client.

That moment when your client tells the engagement partner of your project that if his son weren't married he would try to set you up with him...

One consultant I know married to freaking client.. Not from my firm !

Am I the only one who finds it annoying AF to learn a new secret language every time you start a new project? Any hacks for navigating those first few days without losing it?

"Everyone's one project away from quitting their consulting job"

When your manager asks you to use only one data set and not another which leads precisely to the client recommendation he’s seeking. Anyone else feel guilty about this sort of thing?

So, you need warm bodies on a project? And a "throat to choke"? When did I get a job in Dexter's kill room?

I owe a lot of my career to the PPD on my project, but she's making me eat hours like CRAY. Worry that stirring the pot will ruin the relationship, honestly is it worth it to nurture the relationship?

You know what's not a bad sign? When the client puts your team on mute six times during the call. -_-

Fuck client softwares. They are too cheap to buy good ones and they destroy our efficiency.

That moment when you dial in to a client call remotely and they have printed agendas for the live team and no one sent an electronic version to you. #wtfisgoingon

That awesome moment when a consultant in your project doesn't know how to create a stacked bar graph....

No trust: Client emails you at 4:50 because you are offline walking to a new room between meetings. They think you left for the day. I'm still working.

How many PTO hours is everyone losing on 12/31/15 because your project won't let you take time off for the holidays? #fuckingscrooges

Client asks for big change 8 biz days before going live. Tell them scope is frozen and there just isn't enough time. they reply, "can't you work on it over the weekend?"

All I want for christmas is client value creation!

If you thought that status reporting and basic PMO are basic skills, then you’d be wring. I keep getting the most useless trash status reports from a local consulting on the client

Ugh. Person on the plane in front of me flung their seat all the way back as soon as they sat down, and keeps flinging it back as soon as the flight attendants back is turned. Going to be a long 4h

Fish, how much is a one bedroom in downtown LA? I've been planning a move. Looking at apartments in March, I saw a bunch of great options for $2-2.5k. No prices have jumped and everything is ~1k more

What’s your week like? Where you’re at, things you’re looking/not looking forward to, etc.

How to deal with client who tends to ramble and demands results but never has a disciplined and structured approach to problem solving? “My problem is ABC, also DEFG so in summary 17” let’s get to it!

Do you regularly make an effort to hang out with people you don't admire? What about people you know whose values don't align with yours (or even those you hate)? Why/why not?

Best Black Friday deal?

LA🐠: do any of you take the Metro when commuting to your local office/locally in general? Recently moved here, and at least the Gold Line is super clean and convenient. Red line could be cleaner tho
