How’s the work life balance in GT?

A friend of mine worked in GT. He had been immigrated from Asia and hated it in GT. Unlike other consulting firms; GT gives the client option to choose consultants by providing their cv. His resume was competing with a pool of locals to get the best role.He couldn’t land good projects as the clients were biased towards choosing the locals (unconscious bias). In nine months he quit his role and moved on to a better position.
So if you are an international candidate trying to get into strategy consulting; I’d be a bit careful.
I am sorry I do not have any information on work life balance but I thought it’s important you know the practice of the firm.

Thanks for sharing insights

My wife works in GT. Work-life balance will be very dependent on what project you are on, what role you are in and how the company culture is for the client you are working with.

Hello People,
Looking for advice based on experience. Currently living with in-laws that have come to support us with our first baby. My in-laws and I have had a rocky start to our relationship due to ours being an inter-religion marriage. Many things have been said that I’m neither able to forgive nor forget. I have a very kind husband who understands my sentiments but wants to try to have a cordial relationship with them now for the sake of our baby (and baby’s relationship with grandparents)

Curious to know how much your student loans were when you graduated from your program, how much you’ve paid off so far, and your age. If you have any varying factors too, like kids, income range, etc. Just trying to see if I’m on track or slacking in life. I am 34 yo, i graduated with 95k in student loans, i currently have 85k left and i make 85k in come. I’m also a single mom with two kids. Just praying for 100% student loans forgiveness. Wishful thinking???
