I miss nyc 💔 been in dc for about a year and still miss new york 😓

Im in niche practice area at Big4 (2 YOE)x of which law firms have the practice group. I’m in my late 20s, no kids, not married, significant student debt. The WLB I’ve had is fantastic, and most of my friends are miserable in BigLaw. But obviously the money coming with a lateral opportunity is staring at me, and given my student debt and no family of my own, perhaps it’s worth. Among the money move and grinding out and coming back to Big4 at higher level later? Any insight is appreciated. TIA!

Hi. I am desperate to change jobs. I have to offer in hands: Deloitte Hyderbad on a contract basis with 15% hike and KPMG Bangalore with 25% hike. I like Deloitte as a brand better.
None of of these two companies are willing to offer more saying that they have a tight budget.

Which one should I take? Please help me decide.

I’ve been going through quite a rough time and ended up in hospital partially due to stress. Work and personal life stress. Tawakul is there and I’m put my full trust in Allah that he’ll make a way for me out of what feels like rock bottom. I honestly don’t know what to do when it comes to work. The idea of going back to work is giving me anxiety. Before I got ill I was crying in meetings (virtual meeting and on mute). I just feel hopeless and lost 😔

Hi Friends,
Just wondering in the Netherlands how is LoonZorg for expat insurance? The deal seems too good to be true as the premiums are a fair bit lower compared to other providers.

Thanks!

I’m a junior associate in a corporate group with partners that work in several different industries. I’ve gotten work from every partner in the group. Any advice on how to approach specializing or should I not be concerned with that so early?

Need a gut check here. Got an offer from Deloitte for $7k (~9%) more than I currently make at the same consultant level. Doesn’t seem reasonable to make that jump for no title increase and not a huge salary increase, right?

For all of you who are young, intelligent, motivated, and have a great value structure, I would urge you to leave this firm now. Most of the best talent has already left.
