Yes, significantly

My fiance worked at the EY accounting advisory practice in Chicago. He left 1 year into being a Senior Manager (making 192k base) at the end of 2023. Did a year at a software startup and hated it, but didnt want to go back to Big 4, so he joined CFGI. Now makes 175k base but gets paid overtime, so it sort of nets itself out. Im unsure on bonuses.
Happy to connect you with him if you have questions. Overall seems pretty happy and most of the time WLB is awesome (compared to horribleeee hours at Ey)

Hi all,
New to the area and I’m looking for good dentist recommendations who doesn’t have excessive prices. My SO came in to an office and they quoted us $800 for deep cleaning after insurance, which is 4x what we paid for deep cleaning at the previous dentist in Houston. They also wanted us to pay upfront before any procedure is done. That seems very sketchy to us, so we’re looking to get second opinion and switch office.
TIA!

What questions should senior associates be asking to get a better assessment of partnership prospects?

I’m in a smaller group that historically promotes only one new partner every few years, and there are several others also eligible. Any questions I should avoid asking?

https://ergochair.co/collections/chairs/products/ergonomics-mesh-chair-w-adjustable-headrest-and-armrest?variant=32511617597491

My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
