Welcome to the firm. I realize there are a ton of good people at Deloitte, but I swear ever a-hole comment l(like D2’s) is from Deloitte. I think you’ll like the culture much better

Former D SM and been at KPMG for a year. Love it hear. Good and bad at all firms. D invests a lot more in training and dev. Use it to your advantage here

OP - generally people who have some kind of shortcomings are the ones who need to constantly disguise behind a brand. You can can make your mark anywhere you go with the right attitude and skills. Don't worry about what D2 says, and good luck at KPMG.

You’ll be great! And be comfortable with discomfort. I can only imagine that it will take at least a few months to get into any sort of groove

Leverage your peer advisor as much as possible, especially if in same practice

Welcome and good luck.

Is SC at D pretty much considered the same position as M at K? I’ve seen multiple posts about people making that switch in both directions

How do you answer the question about yourself in i-944 where you can indicate "self" and it asks you if you live with said individual "self", and if this individual is filing for an immigration benefit with you or has in the past (again it's weird because you're talking about yourself.. ).

She surely knows how to make herself comfy for a nap during these cold winter days.
