I'm considering joining Oliver Wyman as a Principal. Any thoughts / sentiments on the firm culture, exit opportunities, quality of work and more pointedly experience functioning at principal level?

With everyone seeming to be “hiring” I’ve had job interviews with various firms: EY, Plante Moran, Doren Mayhew, Rehmann, to name a few..
Apparently I just suck at interviewing, or the firms in my area are not hiring. 🤦

I have an offer to hop from a mid 20 accounting firm to a consulting firm for a sizable pay raise, (kinda) OT pay, more interesting work, etc. I want to take it but am concerned that being in my current role for just under a year will get me labeled as a job hopper. I plan on staying at the new job for at least a few years if that makes a difference. Any advice on if taking the job will hurt me down the road?

Dear EY folks, what's the difference between EY GDS and EY India?

I have been selected for EY GDS as PM. What kind of projects I can expect?

Also, how is yearly appraisal and bonus in EY GDS?

Anybody has any insight on the kind of projects, pay at Deloitte Technology strategy & transformation team? Does this come under deloitte's strategy wing?

Does EY GSD have similar policy like Deloitte USI for mobile phone purchase for Senior levels (INR 25K)?

SVP group client partner in NYC, Health agency. What do I ask for?

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)

For people with clean records -what’s the rationale for waiting until a background check to clear before giving notice? I keep seeing it mentioned but I what’s the risk? To my knowledge it’s not like a cleared background check protects you from your new firm rescinding an offer…is the goal to minimize gaps between paychecks?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

How long does it take for bonuses to be paid out after your performance outcome has been communicated at other firms?

Our comp system is slightly complex so we know promotions Dec-Jan while bonuses are paid out late Feb-Early March (aka 2-3 months)

Edit: Performance year ends in September (so total process is 5-6 months)
