Ofcourse! I should’ve better phrased my question, curious to see if the market demand for consulting is reducing as raising capital gets tougher these days.

No fear at all. KPMG is bleeding managers and senior associates right now so I can get through this next recession quite comfortably.

Wish I knew! Managers just got like $7k (?) automatic salary increase and a secret bonus was paid out to those earning significantly less than market.

There’s a fair chance

It’s not. Look at the latest jobs report and corporate profits. Companies would have to be dumb in the brain to lay talent off in an economy this robust
