How much is too much reaching out? Some context: I’m on the bench and I spoke to my SM about my availability on a Monday. They say they will find me some work. But I don’t hear from him at all. When do I reach out and how often should I follow up until he actually gives me what I need. The layoffs here at Accenture has me stressing over WBS codes so much.

Is anyone working or worked with Wissen Infotech before? I wanna know the work culture and work life balance over there. How is work life balance over there?
Is it a good option to join if I get an offer from it?

Anyone worked at Sopra Steria, what are your thoughts on the company ? Prestige ? Wlb? People ? Salary ?

This group for consulting exit opportunities. My previous consulting job which was my first consulting job, I was laid off. Difficult times for me. Hope to find a new consulting job soon.

Curious is anybody seeing layoffs in consulting? How busy are your cyber practices?

Let me tell you, I love the flexibility at my firm, OK pay, and I do a great job, and am comfortable pushing back when I have too much work . BUT managers are terrible at planning and recently end up putting me in preventable situations where I need to work 55 hrs or have the staff work the 55 hours. I literally cannot since I have a family and my daughter is only in day care a few hours a day, I'm already doing my max work. Is it crazy that I may want to leave Bc I hate making ppl miserable?

Hey guys… I’m a case worker in child safety and I’m someone who loves being outdoors/dies at a desk all day. I’m hoping to organise that at least once a week I can go to a cafe and catch up on all my case notes that need to go into the system.
So far the only reason I’ve been told no is that “if you do then everyone will want to and then no one will be in the office” … how can I convince them that I work better out of the office and get this freedom & mental break for myself?

I have two offers with me

Infostrech (Apexon) 1year wfh then hybrid (office is there in my hometown)

How’s your work-life balance? New job at a new company and wondering how to clarify standards on this

Is there a tax practice that involves lots of tax research and doesn’t require a lot of compliance? I love the technical side of tax and don’t mind spending all night researching a tax issue (that’s what got me into a master of tax) but I just hate hate compliance side of tax

Just want to say that I've learned a lot in this bowl! Really grateful for people posting questions, do's and don'ts and for the community responding!

Course marshall has to be one of the top part-time retirement jobs

I had my Assessor interview this past week and received a pre-screening questionnaire that asked about dual citizenship status. Because I don't even have a passport for the country I am a dual citizen for, I didn't even think about the possibile complications this could lead to with my application. I applied through a career fair at school and didn't see the citizenship requirements, so I guess that's on me.

Born in the US and lived here all my life. Am I screwed regardless?

Just posting as a reminder to LEAVE that job (within a reasonable time 😂) and go where the money is!

(p.s. I already know some of you have had higher increases in the same amount of time & I consider 6 months minimum is “within a reasonable time”)

Kudos to the Digital team for the inspiring first day of CoLo! This group of awesome people is what keeps me at PwC 👍

I wish our Digital leaders were running the rest of P&T...

Recommendations on bathing suits for guys? I like the Vilebrequin / Mr. Swim style, but don't want to spend more than $50

Reading “the call” posts on LinkedIn is a cold reminder to be grateful for having a job. Too many career employees who gave their prime years to their employers are having to face a daunting job market. I pray many of them land on their feet, and truly hope they don’t face too much age discrimination. Any one of us could be or has been in similar shoes....

US Police or HK Police ?

Anyone noticing their feet getting super cold? Room temperature is at 76f, body is also at regular temperature. Feeling perfectly fine otherwise.

Want to lose 30lbs and get lean, fit, flexible and fabulous like I was in college. Considering Beachbody On Demand. Any recommendations of programs that worked for you on their platform? Any tips or advice?
I need a structured class that I attend regularly / daily, otherwise I get lazy and don't make time. Orange Theory worked great for me. I have a Peloton too.

If you were still in undergrad would you prefer 1. Go back to campus and have an in person/hybrid learning experience with restrictions on social life
2. Have your school go fully remote for the entire fall semester
3. Defer for a year and resume your education fall 2021 when things will hopefully be “normal”
I think I’d choose 3 but idk. Tough call, and I feel bad for current college students

I’m totally empathetic to people that miss offices and traveling. I understand your reasons why, I truly do.

For me personally, after non-stop weekly travel for 4 straight years, not traveling has made me realize how much I enjoy being home. Spending time with family, sleeping in your own bed, consistent exercise schedule, etc.

I for one hope consulting becomes more of a hybrid travel model (i.e. travel 1-2x per month or as needed). Else it won’t be for me.

Anyways, just some thoughts.

Can the Chopped kitchen really not splurge on an extra ice cream maker or deep fryer?

People who work in NYC: how do you feel about taking trains or the subway to work if shelter in place ends by end of May?

Today I started looking into the benefits of owning a miniature pony. And I seriously considered it.

Guys - how do y’all split bills during dinner with friends?
