Hi Toronto fishes. In your opinion, who has a stronger presence/brand value in Canada - Deloitte Strategy (Monitor Deloitte or EY-Parthenon (EYP) ?

How are the appraisals at TSMG ?

I’m at the point that I start trembling every time I get an email alert. It’s the little things piling up that is getting to me. The to do list full of, “send emails to X about Y,” “follow-up re this,” “revise the 100 small things the baby lawyer drafted.” Tasks that might take 15 minutes to an hour individually, but all together it’s a lot. I’m the bottle neck. I’m the one who needs to move these things along. But there’s always something bigger and more urgent. Nothing’s ever FINISHED.

We just found out we lost our baby at 14 weeks; no heartbeat on the ultrasound today. D&C tomorrow. Husband and I are devastated, shocked, and don’t know what to do. Mamas who have been here, how did you heal? We don’t even know where to begin.

Does anyone's office use WordPerfect and Word? We merged last year and the original members used WordPerfect and the new people (of which I am one) use Word. The firm is trying to move to all Word, but some of the old partners won't so kind of hard to enforce.

I have been approached by 3 separate HR people at a startup company to interview for a position. I already have a fulltime job that pays well and I only started 6 months ago too. Anyways, the pay was intriguing and the job was a high level scientific advisor so I did interviews. At the last interview, at the end I was told the job was for management but I prepared for a different kind of interview. I am waiting for an offer or rejection letter. I feel peeved that they wasted my time. Red flags?

Currently working at a Canadian B4 firm in M&A Advisory (think: integration advisory; operational due diligence; performance turnaround) but was approached to have an interview with one of the big Canadian banks for a role in their Commercial Banking area in credit.
What role do you think would be better long term for my career and compensation opportunities. I like the idea of the more tangible impact that banking has, but not sure what my opportunities would be into the future.

I’m a director in consulting and up for partner this year. But struggling with the culture within the firm and leadership. Any advice?
