Partner Interview (6th interview).
Good or Bad?
My referral had interviews w/ (1)
recruiter, (1) SM, then the series of
(3) 1:1's w/(1) MD and (2) SM's.
The recruiter said he will now have
an interview in Jan. w/ the PPMD.
He interviewed for a M role in
consulting for customer marketing.
11 YOFE
He does have a wide skill set and the
recruiter said it was all positive
feedback, just have to find out
where to put him (on the team he
interviewed for or another he is
qualified for).Deloitte
Which is better to join @capgemini or @BNY?

Unfortunately the account team told the clients you'd have the concepts tomorrow morning. We could push to afternoon if that helps, right before we kick off that other thing.
Hell yes! I feel so validated by this whole social movement toward creating boundaries and prioritizing mental self-preservation in the corporate environment. I have always been lowkey keen to these things in terms of never raising my hand to take on extra work just to be “seen,” refusing to work weekends, and not responding to emails after a certain time, but for the first 7 years of my career I was ALWAYS, ALWAYS told in my annual reviews that these were flaws I needed to correct — that I was passive, “heads-down,” too quiet (I’m an introvert and am shy but have always been kind to and well-liked by my coworkers). That I needed to be a better “team player” (i.e. bring the company more money without being compensated for it). Because of this I struggled heavily with terrible anxiety inside and outside of work and a constant nagging voice that I wasn’t doing enough, even when I have always created good quality work and delivered it on time (i.e. literally, ya know, done my job). If you want to hustle on your off time, more power to you. Make that money, but make YOU money, not them. I’m partial to watching housewives and playing fetch with my dog, which I’m just now learning not to feel guilty about. I’m so thankful to have finally this year found a company, a manager, and a CEO, who allow me to work normal hours, consistently praise me for creating great quality work within that time frame, reward me for winning new business, compensate me fairly, make me feel valued on a human level, and get on with their own damn lives after 6pm. I’m hopeful that this is the general direction corporate America is headed, and I’m actually somewhat confident it will be, because Gen-Z is a freaking force. As we all continue collectively learning to better value ourselves and our lives, big changes will happen.
It shows you how f’ed up the US is that the phrase they use to describe doing exactly your job includes the notion of “quitting.”
I strongly approve this message.
110%
Amen to that.
Yes!!!!
I get it. But Gen Z is empowered by labor market conditions that will eventually experience a correction. And when that happens, it’s easier to layoff based on who demonstrates commitment vs who adds the most value. The millennials you see working themselves to death for the company are the juniors from the 2008 crash. Their willingness to outwork everyone is the reason they’re still here and not selling real estate. Is it worth it? Of course not. But unfortunately that’s the harsh reality coming for the new class.
