I just moved from big4 strategy/VCS to A&M RX. I was in a newly created team at Deloitte that basically was a joint venture between some M&A guys from strategy and the VCS team: M&A Turnaround and Transformation. Happy to answer questions here such that others can follow along.

D1, how has your experience been with the group?
