Is it a good idea to switch from EY-Parthenon to PwC for better title/more interesting work? I don’t see consulting as my long term and I’d like to go back to school for an MBA in a few years and then transition into industry if that matters.

I love PwC and started my career there. I know their pay and would not be able to stomach such a big pay cut.

If you're an EY-P consultant, your equivalent pay band for PwC MC would be Senior Manager

Hello All,

I bought CER006 on Nov 21 with my current company email id and completed one certification. I am leaving my current organization and I still have 9+ months time left for CER006. My company says the s user id provided by them will get de-activated once I leave (in a week). I have not claimed the amount also. Is there any way I can transfer the certification to my personal email I'd so that I can write other exams in time left?

First interview at a biglaw firm. Just graduated and want to pursue transactional areas, no prior experience. I feel like I’m a risk of a hire in their eyes so any advice?

I’ve only ever done professional malpractice (legal, med mal, etc) and feel like those skills will not transfer as well if I had done transactional work. Ideally I would like to transition to something in-house. Any suggestions as to what jobs/industries I could transfer into with only litigation experience?
