Do tech companies in Canada give out RSUs or equivalent?

Or should i just try to find a job with a salary that covers a nanny salary and accept that i will never see my son on weekdays (which would be sad for both of us)? TIA!

Summer intern at BCG. I've been told by a few people that you need to spend your first few cases "earning your stripes" to gain staffing optionality or be servile/loyal to a pyramid to gain access to the cooler case work within that PA. It's seemed particularly emphasized at times.

Slowing it down and coming across as more articulate / interactive vs speeding it up and come across as fast (but sometimes talk too much / make it hard for the interviewer to interject)? Are there certain parts of the case I can be quicker on vs others?
