Does the NY office still exist or was that the layoff? I can’t imagine cutting folks who moved to Virginia to specifically work for you. They’ll have to uproot their entire lives.

Agree on everything except Walmart and GEICO. Walmart is ancient, ancient history so not relevant. GEICO review was called off and hearing that things are going really well so feels pretty solid there.

On GEICO, the CMO who called for it got let go. However, if that new CMO hits a snag on profits it’s gonna be very easy to call a review. Right now GEICO killed it in the first quarter. But any dip and who knows. Personally, they made that brand and without them I truly believe it will falter. I hope it stays right where it is.

And then they have another summer music concert, lmao

It's been a challenging year for me, including a rejection from GSAP. This week, I got into my top choice MBA program - and an M7 to boot! Just goes to show that sometimes Deloitte's decisions can be misaligned to the greater world.
I hope that Deloitte gives me the chance to be a good brand ambassador - but at the point, it's up to the firm if I even consider coming back :)

Hi guys, I got a feeling that big 4 or T2 companies kinda quiet in jakarta as opposed to MBB where they conduct lots of recruiting events (management consulting). Any reason for that particularly or maybe big 4 prefer internal hiring only?

If you practice collections in-house, what do you earn and do you receive a bonus?

I have practiced for five years and make $121k as an employee of a financial services company. As the only attorney, I oversee all statewide collections efforts, from demand letter to garnishment, with a case volume of nearly 7k new cases per year, of which the majority I end up litigating. I receive only a $1k bonus per year. Is my compensation fair? My last insurance defense gig was $75k.
