Why would you move from GS to startup?

I wanted to learn more and the startup gives me more freedom to do stuff outside of work like investments.

Connect with the firms whose counter offers you rejected in notice period time !!

I'm definitely doing that. But this is as a last resort.

Your field and YoE??
Learning opportunities??
Package bump received??

Answer these and you might get the answer. Job changing is always difficult and takes some time for dust to settle. Might be too soon to jump the ship. Talk to other old staff and see if things change

Yes and its in your hand to establish processes and delegation of work/ hierarchy.

Which firm??

It's a crypto startup.

This is common in startup and processes are not much defined. Since it’s a startup not many resources and hence more work.

Yes, makes sense! I guess I should give it some time then.

Anyone have insight on Business Transformation, Digital Strategy Practice in FSO?

I got the impression this was a small but fast growing team on the west coast, and the work sounds like a combination of product, agile delivery, and roadmap dev. But, as an outsider to the firm, I’d be curious for EY-ers’ thoughts/perceptions on the practice. Is it generally well regarded? How is the practice leadership & culture? Is it truly a hot/growing market like my interviewers have portrayed it as?

I just finished a big jury trial with a senior partner (SP). There were co-parties w/separate counsel. SP mentally checked out, to the point that co-counsel was asking what SP was doing/if SP was okay. I ended up handling most everything. SP did a few parts but went rogue and did things that were offensive/risky/bad for client. It became clear that SP is not performing like SP used to and may be a liability. Do I tell someone at my firm? Don’t want to offend SP or cause drama, but I’m concerned.
