It feels so good when your best friend is your senior manager and you build a case against a less senior manager then he is fired. Sucks but feels so good.

Seriously OP? That’s a terrible thing to do unless that SM was a complete and utter sack of shit. If they weren’t you could have just ruined a person and their family. Seen it happen before. Amazing people get the axe because of folks playing politics. Worst thing to happen to that persons teams. They all went from high performing to disbanding and being unhappy and then leaving the firm. So yea, if they were not a sack of shit, go eat shit off the bathroom floor

You are what is wrong with the system. HR did not do their due diligence. If they had they would have realized that two of the people complaining about one mansger are friends and would have checked to see if there were complaints from others.

Doesn't surprise me though. Deloitte is like HS.. cliques everywhere. 🙄

What did the fired one do???

If nothing bad, what you did is pretty machiavellian, but you are young and inexperienced, so there may be some hope for you. But what ur SM buddy did is even worse because he/she should know better and more importantly, SM peers generally stick together for better or worse.

Guys since OP is on FishBowl we should assume we would side with OP. That SM was probably a terrible person. This was his karma. Good for you, OP!

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!

Does the word “inclusion” do more harm than good? What if the panel we simply said “Diversity & Equity”? My thought here is that inclusion insinuates that anyone who isn’t in the “majority” needs to feel “included”, which could be somewhat off putting. Shouldn’t the goal be for everyone to feel equal instead of simply feeling included? I’d love to get some opinions on this!
