Mental health related Q:

Is it normal to feel guilty over wanting to stay in a job that I like (good company culture/leadership, better wlb) but pays less, vs trying to pivot to a job that pays more but is more stressful and unpredictable? It feels so hard to separate earnings from self worth

Hi I just received an offer as Technical support engineer at Salesforce. But I'm working as a developer in my current organization in a non-Salesforce domain. Is it worth joining this role after sacrificing a Dev role in my current organization?

Why do FAANG companies pay above market not just for Eng talent but other non-core functions? Like HR or other functions that are largely similar anywhere else

So, I've tried a few different positions and still hate practicing law BUT I was approached about a contract role that won't have billable hour requirements and I won't be steeped (I think) into the law firm's toxicity, so I'm wondering if it could be the closest thing to a 9 to 5 for law. Pay is hourly which seems weird, but I would have time to devote to hobbies and life generally. Has anyone been tempted by or accepted these contract opportunities, and what's your hot take?

Curious: are there more lowball offers during the pandemic season or is compensation levels relatively stable?

Has anyone else worked two programming roles at one time?
I currently work as a Contracted Software Engineer and I’m set to finish my contracted time at the end of October. To stay ahead of game I started to move forward in the interview process with another opportunity as an Application Software Programmer and just received notification that I got the position. I definitely could use the extra paycheck to help out with my financial obligations. Just wanted to see if anyone has done this before.

Does anyone have any advice for a junior C++ engineer. Or do companies generally don't hire a specific language. You just have to take on whatever code work is available. Are you specifically hired for a particular tech in your company? Or most of the time you just end up not doing it at all?

Any new joiners attending first impression call tomorrow.

Need help with a formula. I’m downloading bank statements to excel and I’m trying to do a lookup so it fills in the category based on the bank description. The problem is I’m trying to use the entire bank description as my lookup value, but the table array I’m searching only has the first part of the descriptions (because the last parts are all different bank ref numbers). How can I do this?

I really feel like I should be excused from this "diversity and inclusiveness" training stuff lmao. It's about implicit bias and I'm sorry it's just not believable coming from an old white man's mouth when there are maybe 4 non-white associates. We're having these meetings 3 times this week. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Where can you buy a good office chair and sit/stand desk near Toronto? Getting them shipped from the US is mad expensive.

Has anyone done a lateral move at SM level between big4s and/or ACN, IBM etc? Was it for the compensation or something else like better exit opportunities or partner/director track?

I had a great coffee chat, during which the employee offered to refer me. I sent him my application materials on Friday. How can I know if my referral has been submitted? How soon is too soon to follow up? I’m worried about the posting closing.

I want to exit to MBB but if that’s not a possibility what are the next best consulting firms? Looking for at least midsize firms (non-boutiques).

Hi guys! Had a call with a recruiter and they asked for my email to send me the link to apply. Haven’t heard since the initial call, thinking I might have failed the screening call. Would that deter you from applying online? For context, recruiter reached out first and the company was not on my radar before. After some research I got interested, but haven’t articulated that clearly enough on my call (didn’t expect I was going to be asked questions and thought I would just hear about openings).

How is Zscalar TC? Any idea?

On the resume in between jobs, what is the longest gap period that I can have without them questioning about it?

Leaving Bain by the end of the year (3+ years workex) after undergrad. Going to B school next fall. Really want to get some advice on what to do after B school. PE? VC? Startup? Tech? I am lost tbh

Does anyone have opinions on PepsiCo? Interviewing with their growth strategy team who are mostly ex-MBB from top MBA programs. The work seems interesting and up my alley (CPG Strategy) but this bowls obsession w/ tech makes me think I should be focusing my attentions on FAANG

Go-to phrasing for tactfully denying a job but keeping the connection if the position doesn’t fulfill your TC / benefits expectation?

Currently working as a part/time remote contractor (jr role) for a company based in/incorporated in the British Virgin Islands as a side hustle.
The non-compete mentions I cannot work for a “direct” or “indirect” competitor during or for 2 years after working with my current company.
I’m based in the US but may move abroad to Asia at some point this year. Will this noncompete be valid/enforceable? Thx for the feedback 🐠

I'm thinking I won't be getting promoted if not laid off at the end Q2 or sooner. What are some good exit ops for an associate with 2 yoe in tech consulting? Exp in Cloud, PMO, IT Risk, and SoD.

For those of you who left consulting for a corporate industry role, do you forsee yourself returning to consulting life? Or do you make jumps within the industry after a few years?
What are the perks and considerations for this decision?

Feeling disheartened after sending out 100+ applications with radio silence back. No rejections but no invited to interview either. I feel like my resume looks good, but I have not gone the referral route as of now. 1 YOE

I've become really jaded about consulting. I find all so often you need to tell the client what they want to hear to keep their business and I feel like so much of the what I recommend doesn't actually get implemented. I'm looking to make a career switch so I can both create and execute on my strategies. A product management path seems very promising for this.

Does anyone who switched from consulting to product management have any recommendations of h helpful PM books, courses, or programs?

What are valid reasons to switch from Tier 2 to mbb? Valid in terms that they will help me during the interviews?
Personal reason for me would be reputation and client attractiveness. Also more interested in revenue-side consulting compared to mainly doing back office optimization currently. Is the latter one legit to tell in interviews or too harsh about current employer?
