I have got an offer for Manager level at a Big 4 in Consulting. People who are 3-4 years juniors at my MBA college are at Manager level and might get promoted sooner than me. Also, a couple of immediate juniors are at Senior Manager level.

Have you been in a similar situation? Is it awkard? How to handle it after joining?

PS: If you are wondering, I do not have a Big 4 or consulting experience while they have it.

I got an offer from HBS and Wharton last year. GMAT: 740. Background: male, top 20 state school. I was at big 4 at the time. Applied R2. AMA. Good luck to everyone!

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!

What should I ask for when I graduate? Living in Southern Pennsylvania.

Is it true Deloitte is not sponsoring H1B visas? I have a friend considering joining as an SC after MBA. However, they are concerned that Deloitte is not sponsoring. Are these fears correct? How does this work from a recruiting perspective? They would be hired as an off-cycle campus hire via PPMD referral, not within the standard pool of campus hires. Thanks!

Thanks in advance!

Hi! I do freelance job as a UX Designer
And I just have rejected a job, because I don't believe in the business idea. I don't think it's gonna work and don't want to take a part in it. I also don't want to waste time arguing with the company manager...

Do you think it was a right choice ?

I’ve never considered freelancing before, but this year I got hit with a series of unfortunate events… including leaving my role for an amazing offer that later got retracted. Any tips on where to start?

How common is it for first year associates to spin wheels? In my 4th month, I spent 6 hours doing a return with 3 K-1 royalties, 2 Schedule C with few expenses, and the usual 1099-DIV/INT, including consolidated 1099. Budgeted time was 5 hours total. I have yet to get my return reviewed.

Is anyone concerned the push for sexual equality in pay without accordant leveling of parental leave is gonna backfire?

Here’s a hypothetical:

A company has 2 candidates, aged 25-30, equal in every respect save one’s a man the other’s a woman. Maybe the woman is a slightly better candidate overall. They’d have equal comp.

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷

Guys... are they giving location of our choice...specially Chennai and not bangalore..?

Should I get a full or queen size mattress for my studio apartment during MBA school? I usually sleep on a queen size but it will be a tight fit. I’m worried a full will be too small.

How is everyone’s outlook on recruiting so far? Are people just starting? Are things looking fairly positive/like a normal new year or have your career offices said anything that would indicate otherwise?

Having a lot of trouble deciding between two opportunities, Sr. PM at Amazon or Gaming Producer at Warner Bros.
