Agree w/ CP1…though also some brands have sub brands that is a good way to diversify the portfolio. Also, various LOBs can lend to the differentiation in deliverables.

Considering a move to NTT Data in a healthcare consulting role. Mixed reviews in the bowls. Major concerns are bench policy, staff aug roles, 2 week PTO, and high turnover due to job dissatisfaction.

Moving from a marketing role in VC (very top-down leadership) to a progressive tech company. The later has been a much more collaborative and team oriented environment and I’m struggling to know if that is normal in tech or if people aren’t staying in their lanes. Any thoughts would be helpful!

I just finished what I thought was the final round of interviews for a job that I really want. Everything has been going extremely well. The recruiter just called to tell me that they want me to do one more round, though. This will make 8 interviews total, including a full case study presentation to 4 people. Should I be worried? Is this a red flag?

I was offered a job at the beginning of September. The company was acquired this year by a big corporation and pushed the timeline of my start date and official hire until Jan 2023. The talent specialist said she would keep in touch ever month or so. So far I have sent a couple of emails and nothing. Have I been ghosted and should I start the hunt again?
