Hi, I have an offer in hand for a tech consulting internship role at Wipfli, but have final interviews next week for an IE intern role at Amex(Wednesday) and a Serivices Leadership Program intern Role at Gartner(Friday). I am due to accept/decline my role with Wipfli by Friday. Is there any risk to asking for more time with Wipfli? Also, can anyone shed some light on any of these programs and tell me your honest opinion and give me any advice you might have Gartner Wipfli LLP American Express

We have interns ask for more time all the time. If it’s the right person we give it to them and tell them that we think Wipfli is the right spot for their future for xyz. Just be honest about your reason for wanting to explore the other opportunities. If someone says to me “I love your culture and the opportunity, but I’d always wonder about what the other organization would also be like if I don’t explore it now and make an apples to apples comparison to decide for my long term employer. Its not anything against Wipfli, it’s simply wanting to hear about all of the possibilities before making a decision that I hope will be a permanent career choice or turn into a permanent one.” It’s just about how it’s spun. With that said, Wipfli is awesome to work for and if you did accept now, you wouldn’t regret it. But I know it’s enticing to see what else is out there and you have to explore for yourself. Good luck!

Might as well ask but also just accepting the role and reverting if u get a different offer isn’t the end of the world.

smart

I agree with that! Companies always do that and hire more people in your position in case someone else leaves.

If you accept the role and then mention to them that you have another offer is an acceptable situation. We need to stop feeling guilty for looking for ourselves. Companies do the same, and the only reason they will hire you is that you can make at least 2x your salary. It is not that a company is doing you a favor by hiring you; you are also exchanging money for your time and experience.

You can definitely ask for some time. I'm sure they will understand it. Just explain the reason. Don't worry too much :)

Hey! I’m new here and would like some input. I’ve been working in a new position for almost 5 months. In that time I’ve witnessed some unethical and lots of unprofessional behavior. I’ve been yelled at and berated by my coworker 3 separate times because of minor errors. I’m ready to quit. There are so many major issues in this company that I don’t know if I want to subject my mental health to this degree of toxicity. I just don’t know how to move forward from here.
