WLB and culture are totally project dependent. I’ve been here for 3 years and have only had 4 or 5 weeks that I’ve worked over 40hrs. Culture on my team is great as well. However, I have also heard horror stories from friends where I would have easily rage quit in their position lol.

Not sure how helpful this is but I personally love it here and do not see myself leaving any time soon.

Depends almost entirely on the project. Though I like firm-wide culture here a little better than when I was at Deloitte fed

My time at AFS wasn’t good at all. That being said, my WLB wasn’t too bad. Culture was alright.

Came from ACN - LLP.

Everyone I knew in it wanted to move to LLP for the pay raise, and “real consulting” culture. It’s also a subsidiary of ACN so not treated the same administratively. Better WLB from what I compared on my projects.

I moved to BAH for the better benefits and pay raise and WLB.

Hello All,

Have a few questions regarding IBM Joining, HR response is strangely lacking and so does in the slack(prejoin channels). Hoping can be cleared here..

How many days does in-person onboarding activities occur?
b) HR Informed,"After onboarding is complete, can get perm WFH based on project or extension of WFH as IBM is flexible"
Is this true? Can managers extend/grant remote for a month then let us transit to remote model?

Any other hiring managers feeling like all of your candidates are asking for more money last minute just to see how far they can go? Like if we say the range is 110-130K, they say they’re looking for 135K, you offer 135K and then they say they won’t take the job for less than 150? Not even with competing offers. It’s hard for me to stay excited about wanting to work with someone when they do that. What a waste of everyone’s time.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
