I think...look, personally, I wouldn't recommend it. It's sweaty, lots of long nights, and you're just not around. That's the plain and simple truth of it - there's a reason lots of young single professionals end up in the role. I think if you're gonna go for it, it's a discussion to have with your spouse around childcare, responsibilities, expectations etc. It puts a lot of strain on a relationship if someone just isn't around

It's a profitable way to get a divorce.

Need advice. Have some credit card debt that I’ve been working to pay off. Have made progress but want to lower it quickly. We have dual income, with a house (~$300k in equity), 1 kid and 1 on the way. I’ve looked into debt consolidation via HELOC but also have ~$80k in vested equity in my company that I haven’t touched. Get equity refreshes every year. Would it be smarter to cash out $15k-$20k of that to pay debt vs. a HELOC at ~5% given that will still require mthly payments

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?

Hi All!
This is my first post in Fishbowl, I'm looking for some genuine guidance on below query.

I got an offer from Capgemini for Manager/C2 designation with a CTC of 24 LPA. I just wanted to know the roles and responsibilities at this designation.
Will it be a profile shift from technical to managerial position or is just a designation (as per HR) the actual job would be to lead/guide any team?
Thanks
