Last night I was asked why I left PwC by PwC folks and I responded "because PwC is shit". 🤦🏾‍♀️ And that was before any alcohol touched my lips. Anyone else have awkward dinner convo stories?

PwC is great! 😍

That's not awkward if it's true. Although it would have been better if you provided concrete examples.

I think dinner was awkward because you were an ass. You can be truthful and to the point without being a complete jerk or offending people who are happy there in the process.

Agreed, not sure why it's awkward. You though it was shit and left. It o my makes logical sense that your PwC friends would ask.

We all have different experiences based on personality, practices, projects and the PPED's we work for

lol yeah - mine have been pretty good. One of my projects we leave at 630 to get dinner and workout and get back to work if we need to

Hello,
I’m a junior data scientist and in my current job I mostly code using Pyspark (no machine learning) so I would like to work on a side project that could leverage my profile and data science/ML skills. What project would you advice me to work on ? (it can be a kaggle project, or a classic task that you do at your job, or a paper that you read).
I’m overwhelmed by the many suggestions online and would prefer to get a suggestion directly from professionals.
PS : I’m not a beginner.

So stuck. What do I do? I joined this firm a year ago (4 yrs exp total) to grow/get more court/client exposure. Then 2 more-experienced associates were hired, pandemic, & all cases are divided between the other 2. I have no defined tasks except deficiency letters or the odd pro bono case. Boss claims it's mentoring. I still need to meet bill req.

Last wk Boss said I'll do more & my work was good, but today said I can't 2nd chair bc I don't have experience. I'm doing less now than my prior firm.

Food for thought: the US is actually one of the most racially conscious places I’ve ever lived. Not saying we don’t have a LONG way to go and that there isn’t immediate important work needed.
But the amount of allies this movement has is incredible. Keep in mind this is just my experience and may not represent others- however, in many of the other places I’ve lived or traveled to, racism is almost tacitly accepted. You wouldn’t have people calling out taxi drivers for ignorance for example
