Has it really been affected?

A1, AC1 : that's what the CBO is projecting. I am not saying growth will not return till 2028. The projection is 2028 will be the first year when output will match the pre covid projection for that year, ie between 2020 and 2027 the GDP will be lower than pre covid projections for those years.

Well McK apparently came into a $100M windfall so I imagine they’re quite happy with their pipeline. B*tches (in jest). It’s all relative.

I think the problems for consulting is only getting started. Most of the ongoing large capital projects are funded from previously approved budgets, and that are at a point of no return or pause. Effects of this slowdown will be really felt towards the end of 2021

I am so glad to have found this bowl! It isn't easy to share your faith in today's educational environment. So that makes me wonder ... how many of you work in Christian or private schools, and how many teach in public schools?

I am interviewing for a new IT Manager position. I started putting out soft feelers and then hit the hunt harder. The problem: I have one offer and need to give an answer by next Wednesday. I have two other opportunities that are in final steps but probably won’t have offers by next Wednesday. Both of the other offers will be higher pay but clearly are uncertain for offers. Do I accept the offer I have, which is a good one or wait for the other two to finalize and possibly miss out altogether?

I am interviewing for a Strategy leadership role at a SaaS company. A bit rusty on interviews so crowdsourcing from senior folks here, what are best practices or good examples of certain behavioral questions.

1. What is your weakness? I can talk at length about strengths but unclear what weakness to state so as to not mess up my chances.

2. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? This question is tough because there aren't very many levels above me so cannot say in an EVP role.

HSBC Results are out HSBC’s pre-tax profits almost doubled to $2.7bn in the final quarter of 2021 as the UK lender’s commercial banking revenues were buoyed by growth in credit and lending. The London-based bank said in an earnings statement on Tuesday that full-year pre-tax profits increased 115 per cent to $18.9bn, just missing forecasts of $19.1bn. Reflection of these results on employees : Single digit hikes even for top performers. Same scene continues from past 3 years now. HSBC
