I’ve noticed when people resign, they often share details of the company they’re joining during partner discussions. How important is it to disclose your new employer? I’m in discussions for a new role, but a leader at my current firm knows a senior person at the prospective employer. I’m not comfortable sharing details before everything is finalised. Is it generally expected to disclose where you’re going, or is it acceptable to keep it confidential until after you’ve joined?

Expected and generally accepted is one thing. Your legal position may be different. Don’t disclose anything you’re not happy to, if you don’t have to.

I usually think it’s good to disclose on resigning because consulting is quite relationship focused and it’s important to give your employer honest explanation of why you’re going so that the bridge doesn’t burn. For example I left my last place because they had more business coming in for my area of interest and were offering a substantial pay rise. I wanted the partner to know I probably wouldn’t be leaving if those things weren’t true.

Only disclose once it’s official!

I’ve not seen another industry where an outright refusal to redline exists, let alone one where negotiating legal terms costs 5x!

Anyone who has started up a side hustle whilst working in consulting - is it generally a good idea to let your employer know or will they make your life difficult/try to push you out if they know?

(Context - I need the extra income to have a shot at affording grad school, I work for a small boutique, job contract was ambiguous on the issue. Side hustle is selling stuff I make as a hobby on Amazon)

Thanks!

Within my first year of Consulting, really struggling with the hours amongst other things. Spoken to a couple of people internally and the advice is to get on to projects with bigger budgets and therefore bigger teams/more support. I want to wait until I hit the one year mark before making a decision on whether Consulting is for me or not. Curious to hear from other experienced hires..how is/was your first year?

What is the culture like, type of work and reputation of Capco in the Data & Analytics space?

I have some good ex colleagues who moved over there and also looked up on LinkedIn and see lots of seemingly smart and accomplished people in their D&A team in the UK.

I'll ask my ex colleagues too, but wanted to see if people here have any opinion or information on this too.

TIA
