How are things going at GT with the PE ownership? I’m considering jumping but PE is my main concern. It’s only a matter of time until RSM has PE. I have an offer from CLA too. 2nd year Senior Manager in tax for reference.

What makes you say RSM is going PE? Spill the deets

I’ve heard RSM will likely not go PE

I would assume everyone will go PE soon. B4 will lag due to their size, but they are certainly trying as well.

GT is good - more focus on performance, so less free rides for people than historically. The MIPs that high performers are getting are a nice incentive.

MIP?

Starting in January as an A1, nice bump in compensation.

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.

Hi there. I’m new to this.

Gay man who works in a large org that is big on diversity and inclusion efforts.

I list mine because I see it as a way to show support for colleagues who may not be cisgender. If anyone else works in the same type of environment, do you infer anything about colleagues who choose not to list their gender pronouns? (such as they are homo/trans phobic?)

Went from a big firm to work for a smaller firm. The people in the smaller firm are protective of their work and are good by their work too. I no longer feel chaos or stress. I am treated with respect and my schedule is more normal. I am even working more billable hours than before, but it feels like a seamless experience. I don’t work then past 5pm or anything out of the ordinary for this time of the year. I am so grateful!

Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?
