It’s finally Friday 🎉 What are your weekend plans? Hopefully, your plans don’t involve working.

How was everyone’s weekend 🤨

Anyone jump from consulting to sales? Mind blown by some of the salaries I've heard. Generally, I have a negative view on sales, just from the slimy salesmen I've dealt with in the past, but I can be wrong. Interested to hear if you've made the jump

Where are the good point promotions? Spg (soon), Hyatt recently just ended and those were lame. Anyone know good ones going on or starting relatively soon? Interested in rental and air promotions, too.

Do you maintain a CSR/Amex Plat even as a traveling consultant (assuming you are using Corp amex green)?

If you living currently in a home and looking to buy another home but plan to put only 10% on the new home, can I pay the remaining 10% after selling my existing home in 1-2 months .. and get the PMI

Do we have salary advance policies in the big 4s either in Indian or global offices?

Hello Fishes, I have started my role of an Internal communications executive after 12 years of sabbatical, due to marital and parenting period. Looking to enhance my skills for growth and better efficiency. Could anyone please suggest what kind of skill enhancement course would be beneficial for me?
Also, what is the current salary slab for this role, because I joined in a very low package, being eager to get back to the role. So grabbed whatever opportunity I got without doing much research.

How is life at Deloitte USI compared to other IT firms like Wipro tcs Infy TCS?

Anybody moved back to USI recently? I'm supposed to travel back soon and getting a bit anxious about the 14hr journey (haven't flown since the pandemic began). Would it be fair to ask Deloitte for business class instead of economy? I guess it would be easier to maintain social distancing in business, but would it even matter?

How was the interview process for Deloitte Salesforce Analyst. I am in the Philly area if that matters. I have 1 year experience with Salesforce at a consulting firm (if anyone could guess the pay that’d be great)

I want to be a consultant at Deloitte, I have experience in Product Management. Do you think going from PM to consulting is a realistic path?

Graduating senior. Have choices between MBB and SWE at FAANG. Not sure what to do. Long term I’d love to be in a small startup or a leader in a tech company. Not sure which path is better for that. Any thoughts?

Anyone worked for State Farm? A recruiter contacted me abt taking over a book of business in my area. I am wondering if I could do that and also be RIA?

Need 11♥️ for DM.
Please help

My office is having a barbecue at one of the supervisors houses. It starts at 4 pm. what time should I show up? Social norms say arrive 30 minutes to an hour after a party start time but it’s since it’s a work party, what is the social norm for social work events?

As black attorneys, what traumas do you think are unique to us?

What do you think is going to happen with Trump’s legal troubles?

I’m looking for a paralegal opportunity in the DMV/NYC/NJ area, preferably remote but I’m open to a hybrid schedule. I’ve an LL.B. (2014), and currently working as an appellate paralegal with experience in bankruptcy, civil rights litigation, and family law. I’m open to all areas of the law.

This bowl was originally created for black attorneys in big law, but since it’s the only bowl for black attorneys, many black attorneys in other sectors have joined. Some people are apprehensive about starting another bowl for all black attorneys because it will take away from this bowl. Assuming that the conversations & topics will stay the same, What are you thoughts on keeping this bowl solely for black in big law verses Opening this bowl to any black lawyer?

When do you think associates are usually let go in small practice groups that are currently being overwhelmed with work? Is it when it starts to slows down or when they already have a candidate to replace you? Just trying to figure out how long I have after annoying a partner 😂.

Do you ever feel like there are rooms you’re locked out of? I’m a black woman, i lateraled to my group a few months ago with minimal onboarding and welcome. A white woman joined recently and everyone has bent over backwards to make her feel welcome and get her integrated into the group. People have invested less in me and it’s going to show in a few years when she’s up for partner and I’m still catching up.
