I have an interview with Blackstone early next week in their Fund Finance team and someone told me they have a terrible culture/WLB, does anyone have any insight on this?

Hit or miss from what I've heard. Depends on your controller and the fund family. Generally, it will probably be better than small in house type shops and you'll have the benefits of a larger org in terms of redundancy .

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
