Amazing WLB. Lot of L and B.

funny

Depending on your region, it gets easier/harder.

With the current rate of attrition and roll over, you will face staffing issues on a daily basis. This includes over promising by GDS leadership without accounting for actual available man power.

Apart from this, you are expected to provide projections to GDS and US leaderships and state plausible reasons for any deviation from projections to actuals.

Oh also, Mondays and Fridays would be the worst with at-least 50% taking “sick leaves”.

It's good, although definition of WLB is different for everyone.

Wlb will depend on sub-service line you’ll be supporting. For scheduling and ad-hoc requests on my engagements, I take their help. Even though a non-technical job, it might get a bit much at times, talking and convincing people to pick up work, day-in and day-out.

It’s a thankless job. Lots of fire drills. Depends on which services lines you are supporting. Good luck.

fire drills here means?

Hi Folks - Does anyone have insights on the interview structure for consultant level (summer internship) in London?

While negotiating the offer the recruiter came back to me and said "We’re working through headcount planning right now. The position you applied to is closed". Looks like a hiring freeze. Does this mean layoffs are coming up? What about the candidates (like myself) who cleared HC and was in negotiating process?

3 years ago I asked for a compensation review/raise, went through what felt like a ridiculous 8 MONTH long process of defending why it was warranted, only to be told no. 3 months ago I asked again and it has gone nowhere. I should add that salary bands are kept secret and I have no clue what the range for my position is. There are a decent amount of benefits in my position, the biggest being WLB, which is what has kept me here for so long. But I’m getting frustrated. What would you do?

So I had a first interview this past Friday at a company that I had previously interviewed with and made it to the final round last month. They decided to go with an internal candidate after it came down to me and him. The current role is more senior, and was one I was asked to apply for by the hiring manager, whom I also met with during the last set of interviews. I emailed the recruiter to f/u on Friday and still have not gotten a reply. Should I be concerned?
