Its tough few weeks for our country. And let’s not forget today is the anniversary of George Floyd’s murder, too. In general I am thankful we live in a country where we can freely speak out against evil acts as they happen - not everyone has that luxury. & for some good news today - it’s my birthday! My birthday wish is that we all get to talk to someone we love today ❤️ thanks to everyone who joined this bowl & I hope you continue to spread some good news.

I haven’t watched drag race before but I’m curious to learn more. Do you all have a favorite season or a season you recommend I start with?

My joining date is coming closer, however education background checks are still processing ( international degrees) . My onboarding coordinator told me that I can still join even if education check is still in progress, provided there wont be any flags. I don’t see any issue with my degrees and have done same with my past companies.
Anyone experienced this ? Any problem joining while check is processing ?

Those who recently joined ARA how was the transition? Any advise on what I can look/research on now to help on my first couple of assignments?

Looking for some insights on compensation range (base and bonus) for 3rd year Manager in Deloitte US, Customer Strategy and Applied Design practice (C&M). Would location influence the pay (for example New York vs So Cal)? Currently in Deloitte at another geographic and weighing joining Deloitte US or going freelance as an Innovation and Strategic Design consultant. Also if there’s anyone that went the Big4 to freelancing route, would appreciate if I can DM for a few questions! Thanks!
