I am currently furloughed since my client has funding lapse. I put my resume out and I have an interview with Grant Thornton. Things are good at my job, but if offered a job with GT should I take it?

I went from Deloitte to GT and highly recommend. Flexible time off is highly underrated and it's a less stressful environment

Furloughed?!?! They authorized charging to overhead for those affected. You’re on the beach!!

funny

Blame the government not Booz. GT is a contractor too and could also be similarly affected. All contractors are affected. Leaving seems shortsighted.

I am not blaming anyone. It is what it is and I just want to get paid. Not sure if it’s worth making the switch now

@OP I don’t get it. You work for Booz full time, but were not getting paid, because of the shut down?

What’s the common etiquette for waiting for a recruiter to call you back? Recruiter called me yesterday & left voicemail to call her back. I called back less than 5 mins later and left a voicemail, but didn’t get a call back. Tried calling one more time at the end of the day but no answer. Still haven’t heard anything today. Should I keep waiting or try calling again or send an email? Don’t want to be too aggressive but also want to hear their update & hopefully schedule next round interview

The team I am on is small and I know that when I leave, they’ll have a lot on their hands. I only have a couple of interviews scheduled and nothing is solid yet.

Here’s how to withdraw your funds from FTX

Hedge Withdrawals

Open a position on FTX and an opposing position on another exchange (perhaps Binance for the irony) for the same financial exposure. If the position on FTX profits, keep trading. As the position on FTX experiences losses, the opposing position on the other exchange profits. Keep it up until you’ve depleted the funds on account at FTX the close your opposing position. You’ve successfully withdrawn funds using a hedge. You’re welcome.
