I am just here to say that I am so glad that I left Accenture when I did in 2022. It was a terrible firm then and the stock is in a free fall. For all the Accenture fish I hope you guys are doing okay. I certainly hope you’re not still bag holding this garbage. Your leadership is an absolute joke. 🫠

I am a regional controller for a hospitality group. I began looking for a job in a different industry, but have hit some roadblocks with trying to communicate transferable skills and management style (decentralized). Any recommendations?

Does anyone have question suggestions for a final interview with skip level boss? Big picture, vision for the role + team, growth strategy type questions! Thanks :)

Would anyone consider their senior colleagues to be their genuine friends?

What causes a coin to suddenly spike 100%+ in value in a matter of hours? I mean how does demand collectively sky rocket - seems unlikely that so many people would have a coordinated buy?

People who are cleanliness/organization freaks and have SOs who are not as clean/organized, how do you deal with it? Just learn to live with it?

SO moved in, however they aren’t as organized (an example is closet, my clothes are neatly folded and kept while theirs are mostly a pile of rolled up clothes). It does upset me and for some reason comes across as lazy which it may or may not be. We have had one minor chat and they saw it as ‘house rules’ and were worried there may be too many rules.

What service do you use for collecting security deposit/rent?

How long does is usually take to get staffed on the first project? Joined 11/15 and still no project... Fyi, I am in the commercial side. Should I be worried? Ive contacted my RM couple times and am reaching out to my network 😢

Thanks

While this bowl grows, I thought I’d have a question to kick things off:

Why did you leave consulting? What do you do now? How did you make the switch (upskilling, referrals, etc)? Pros/Cons?

Unlimited PTO is not working for me.
Flexibility is great but I need a max limit of days to make sure I’m safe. Anyone having the same issues?

Can anyone tell me the difference between a senior and lead validation engineer( no direct reports in both cases) in Pharma/ biotech ? I am not sure what’s the hierarchy and which level must get a higher salary. Or is it just referenced interchangeably in different companies ?

I loathe tax, I want to work to live not live to work. Switching fields means starting all over again. I feel torn. Anyone have success stories? Advice?

Hello 🎏🐠,

Off topic!

I want to learn SQL / Excel (functions etc) for companies like Amazon, which sites or resources I should go through?

PS: I have beginner level knowledge for both.

Any suggestions or guidelines are welcome.

Anyone else scroll through LinkedIn and constantly feel behind in their career? Everyone I know is exiting from MBB to VC/PE and I’m still making peanuts at Big 4. How do you deal with knowing you’re mediocre/less sharp?

Mulling over an offer. Is work at MBB way more work / significantly more intense than Big 4? I feel like I have a good brand/rep at EY; not sure if effort to rebuild all of that at MBB is worth it?

This whole Sunday night flight is full of hungover 22 - 27 year olds like myself headed to the client for an early start tomorrow. what a life

Currently at Big 4. Have offers for a PL/Principal at MBB and for a VP role at a Fortune 20 company. The VP role is more interesting and comp a bit better but I’m told would accelerate faster at MBB. The initial plan was to end up at MBB. What’s the best for future flexibility?

Recently married 🐠🐟: need recommendations for decorators for wedding in Long Island NY. Trying to stick to budget but the prices I'm getting quoted are crazy. Why are flower centerpieces $175??? 😩

Need a good recommendation for a home office chair. I work from home a lot and need a new chair. My new one isn’t cutting it for me- it’s not comfy and I have lower back pain.
