How is the Public Consulting Group? Any insight on salary bands, culture etc…Thank you!

Looking for honest opinions: would you trust career advice from someone who doesn’t necessarily have a background in career coaching but has always been “that friend” that everyone calls for career advice, resumes, salary negotiations etc?
I have a long background in management and have been very successful in climbing the ladder but I would love to start career coaching on the side. Any feedback is helpful!

So, I’ve been wondering what MAGA will do once Biden is president... And finally I have a theory. My theory is that MAGA will simply resort to laughing at all comments without comment. That’s how we’ll know they still exist somewhere out there in their dear MAGAland.

Hey, look! You see that single laugh react on the comment that says literally anything about black people deserving respect or compassion? That’s MAGA baby! Never forget.
