I have a desk job where I’ll legit sit for 9hrs each day. I used to have hobbies on the computer, like video editing, writing code for side projects, sketching out app ideas. Lately I can’t stand to be at my desk anymore after work. Been watching too much tv instead. More so seems like it’s due to being in the same location for so many hrs each day. Interested in hearing thoughts about separating work desk from personal desk, and other hobbies you picked up to get away from the screen

How does WLB differ in PE when you're a VP/Director/MD? Appreciate any insight on hours/weekends, and if fund size matters.

Discussion post: I feel almost all consulting firms are the same. Mbb, big 4 etc. if you are paid enough there is probably less wlb. If there is good wlb there is not much money. Can you single out a company that you can confidently say pays very well and also has good wlb and also has good opportunities etc.?

EY GDS vs DELOITTE INDIA..?

Which one is better in terms of wlb, hike, career growth and job security.

Hi all,
Anyone working in Nineleaps company Bangalore?
Please share your working experience? Hows the working environment and about work life balance?Nineleaps

What’s the work-life balance at Strategy& and EY-Parthenon in the London offices? At the moment I’m averaging around 50-55 hours at my boutique - higher or lower?

Veterinary tech here. I don't know many others who wouldn't complain about taking work home but honestly I feel like I would be willing to pay people to watch their puppies for the weekend, I love my job

What does work-life balance look like in the Corporate Strategy group? Average hours / week, weekend work?

Any paralegals here working at Nesenoff & Miltenberg LLP in Manhattan? How’s the culture, pay, and work and life balance?

BNP or Bank of America ?

Culture & Work Life balance, which is better ?

Hi guys how's work life balance in EY India in technology line? What is the average working hours during normal times and peak season? I would be really glad if someone can help me with this! Thanks!

Now that the craziness of 2021 is firmly in the mirror, what is your class year and when do you normally stop working at night, on average? For me 6 to 7 is the average. Have to wake up at 5 or 6 a.m. one or two days a week to make that happen though and it may not last through Q4..

Hi,

Just started a new job less than a month ago in the tech sector. It was the industry I was fixated on when leaving for. However I realise that I don't think I can cope with the fast paced, lack of wlb, with no support - it's really impacting my mental health already....

I try to hide it from my boyfriend, but its impact is flowing into my personal life.
I feel like a failure, but recognise it might be beneficial to cut loss and quit. Has anyone been in this situation?

Any advice?

During this time how safe is to join AWS ProServe EMEA team as an Application Architect ? How is the job security and WLB ?

How is Genpact to work like for a mid level role? Can somebody tell me about pros/cons, work life balance, job security & potential yearly hikes?

I’m currently in change management and have no experience in supply chain but I’m interested in getting into it. Realistic to transition in? Would CSCP be my best shot?

Good news! #ihateaa comp upgraded me on a short haul in lieu of taking one of my stickers. Bad news: The #aassholes are on indefinite mechanical delay. Thinking I should have rented a car. #neveraa

I know the stats HS provide on need based aid. But how does it really work? Could you lie in terms of your assets and potentially what you make. How would a background check uncover those.

Any 'healthy' savory vegetarian breakfast ideas? Tired of all the 'sweet' stuff - oatmeal, smoothie, chia pudding, etc. Need some healthy variety before I start eating 🥯 + cream cheese!

Hi All :) I need advise on whether it is possible to get my first time H1B stamped at a US consulate in Canada ? I am required to travel to Canada anyway for my PR stamping and I am trying to figure out if I can get my H1B stamped around the same time while I am in Canada for my PR, since it is extremely difficult to get appointments in India these days? I am currently based in US. Thanks!

Anyone had the experience working in the US as a consultant? Apart from higher comp, do you feel there are more opportunities there?

Can this week please just end?

How often do you meet with upper management at your company? I just got a promotion and I’d like to set up a somewhat regular cadence of meetings but I don’t want it to be too often to the point where it feels like we are just wasting time.

Tesla owners, I am contemplating an M3, and have a few targeted questions:
1. How is the experience driving in East Coast winters and on slippery roads? How is the battery power drain in winters?
2. If you cannot install the charging station, how did you find the experience with regular charging? I live in a condo so I cannot install.
3. What are your thoughts on service for longer drives / rural areas and how does the lack of spare tire affect your decision?
Please advise on other aspects.

I started learning last summer (right after graduating from college). I am self-taught and I usually get a round in once a week. I never play with others as I have no golf buddies and I am pretty scared to join strangers as I still am pretty early in the learning phase. I can break 90 consistently but never got below 82. Any suggestions on finding golf buddies to make my rounds more fun?

Anyone alive in here?! Just driving by

Anyone in this weird spot where you want quarantine to end and life to go to normal but also don't because you like some of the new aspects

We’re using our downtime to redecorate/renovate our home to change it up during quarantine. Any apps to help with the planning and measurement, etc? We’re using Pinterest and Instagram to gather ideas.

Tomorrow is the 1 year anniversary of the passing of my roommates mom. She’s devastated and I know tomorrow will be hard. Any ideas on what I can do to help her through appreciated.

Feeling really sad about friends I have drifted apart from despite efforts to stay in touch. My best friend from high school and I haven’t seen each other in about 4 years, I messaged her a year ago, got a nice response from her, and I tried keeping the convo going but she left me on read. Offered her and her boyfriend tickets to join me and my boyfriend at a concert in fall 2019, left us on read with no response. Her bday was last week and she left my bday wishes on read too. I’m so sad.

Today I started looking into the benefits of owning a miniature pony. And I seriously considered it.

If you were still in undergrad would you prefer 1. Go back to campus and have an in person/hybrid learning experience with restrictions on social life
2. Have your school go fully remote for the entire fall semester
3. Defer for a year and resume your education fall 2021 when things will hopefully be “normal”
I think I’d choose 3 but idk. Tough call, and I feel bad for current college students

Book recommendations? I’ve been reading atomic habits, and have moved onto Traders guns and money.

Anyone have any good book recommendations?

How would you give your manager a negative review?
Manager's boss reached out to obtain review about my manager. I have nothing good to say about him, would you be honest? If yes, how would you go about it knowing that both he and his manager can read this review and know where it's coming from?

Did anyone here test positive for COVID after atleast one shot of vaccine?

Why do so many Americans put a useless apostrophe before a plural S? It’s charts not chart’s. It’s curtains not curtain’s. What is wrong with ya’ll. Get it together. 😩

Who are the top headhunters / recruiting firms for early stage startups?

First toilet paper, now it’s flour, yeast and baking products. Why is instant yeast 10x more expensive on amazon?! Is everyone really trying their hand at baking now? What happened to rice and pasta?
