Can anyone let me know how easy it is to apply to a consulting firm in Dubai directly coming from London? I am currently working at a T2 strategy firm in London and my partner and I want to relocate in ~1.5 years. My firm does not have an office in Dubai whilst my partners firm does. Is it possible to apply straight (rather than moving laterally in London, waiting a few years then transferring?) interested in MBB views too. (I would have roughly 2.5 YOE by then)

Hi All,
Just want your suggestion on this to help me decide.
I've been working in QA team for big data project and recently I've got offers from Startup and service based MNC as data engineer for the role of Data Engineer.

What kind of organisation would be best for me considering my mental health as well because I take too much stress ?

What are my chances of getting into APM programs at companies like Meta and Uber as a student from a non-CS background and little experience?

Currently working on my MS Finance degree, graduating in December. Working on my resume and was wondering if I should include a projects section (which would be projects/assignments from classes)?

I don’t have much experience as I went into grad school right after undergrad (graduated December 2021).

I am interested in getting the AWS Cloud Practitioner cert (foundational). I’m tech-savvy, but have not been involved in Cloud work. Any idea on how difficult the exam is?

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again. My previous experience includes time at B4 audit up to senior level and then transitioned to manager in industry. Senior/manager roles are preferred.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.

Best course for GCP professional data engineer? Any suggestions

Pros and cons on getting a designation? Been considering going for the CPCU designation to gain some professional development. Which designation did you go for and why?

I’m a woman in my mid 20s and constantly face situations where people outside of cyber (still within the company) that I’m dealing with (older men in particular) who always push back against my cyber/technical recommendations even with managers cc’d. I studied, earned certs, and worked hard to get to where I am. Is it bc of my gender and age? In all honesty, I’ve written recommendations that male counterparts voiced in the past that had ZERO pushbacks.

What are the most challenging aspects of transitioning to a startup from management consulting?

A couple questions for the turnaround consulting fishes:
1. Is FP&A experience valuable for restructuring/turnaround consulting? I’m a CPA with experience in Big 4 FDD and a short stint in IB. Total work experience is a little over 2 years. I recently joined a RE company as a Sr FA in FP&A where I expect that I’ll be mostly doing budgeting & forecasting work.
2. If my goal is turnaround consulting, what should I focus on right now to best position myself?

I appreciate any insights/guidance.

Looking to improve general communication skills (especially around structuring narrative/ key messages), any books/courses that you would recommend?

Any EY folks going to Newco thinking of starting their own consulting firm instead?

If you were on the partner path already I don’t see why you wouldn’t be thinking this…

Any insights on Cloud consultant role in GCP PSO in terms of project pipeline, growth opps , wlb , etc.

Can someone give me a range for salary for auditor with 2 years experience transferring to FDD associate? In HCOL (New York/ SF). I have been requested to give a figure and don’t want to go too low. Thank you!

Is this new labour code will be applicable to IT employees also? Anyidea
Like 4 days working and 3 days off.

I got an offer of 5.6LPA (43% hike) from Infosys for 2 years of experience and they told me its the final offer, so I accepted it but after some analysis I came to know that the hike should be at least 80%.
Is it okay to ask for a revised offer letter after accepting the offer?

Hello Fishes,

I have initiated Resignation and got a good offer. HR offered retention and has almost matched my new company offer but my manager kept on insisting me not to revoke the papers.

I have informed HR to assign a different project which suits my role.

My question: Why does a manager asking an employee not to revoke. The same manager promised to increase my ctc but he failed to fulfill. Now HR is inclined to fulfill my expectations but manager asking to quit!

Your thoughts please

Thank you all the fishes and crabs on the occasion of thanks giving day

Hi Fishes

My employer is not considering employer's PF contribution in my fixed component and employer's PF in my case is 12% of Basic instead of minimum required. I feel that this is making my fixed component to be liable to a higher tax.

I feel that I would have got the same in hand even if my fixed is 2 lakhs lower and employer's PF is part of my fixed as even that portion will be excluded out of tax calc.

Is my thought process wrong? If not, how can I improve my in-hand reducing my tax?

I have got 2 offers
