Layoffs are kinda a “crowdstrike” when you really think about it. So imagine getting crowdstruck while working at CrowdStrike? 🤔

Hi Fishes,

Yesterday I attended MS hackerrank test and was able to solve some Java based MCQ and one sql query correctly but not able to execute a code with any passed test case so should I expect a call from a recruiter for an interview?

What areas have had the most rent reductions in Manhattan?

Has anybody switched from Deloitte India to Usi?
How was the procedure? Did you quit the India firm and then join Usi or is an internal switch possible?

Everytime I’m riding high, getting good work done, my boss has to come in and ruin the mood. Every time. Here’s to spending the rest of my day eating ice cream and watching tv while still working but less than before

Please, share some tips to deal with work stress. I'm getting crankier more than ever with the huge amount of workload. I was not like this, but I'm so tired of the mentality "Send it to Paul, he can solve it" (Paul is my fake name). New hireds cant do the job, old seniors are quiting like birds...

Growing up was rough. On my 8th birthday my dad had an accident that led to this death a few days later. He was a good man who took care of us all (I had 3 siblings now 2; lost 1 few years ago). I'm in a good place in life right now I only find myself in the last 5years shedding a tear once a while when I'm alone. It startles me because I was a tough kid who didn't cry and just soaked it all in and rolled with it. I'm almost 40 and can't explain what's happening with these tears.

Is it irrational for me to get an “ick” for this?

I went on a “date” recently. I paid for the tab as they were going to the bathroom. As we were leaving they said “thanks for lunch” — I was hoping they’d at least ask to Venmo me half as a kind gesture. Following lunch we grabbed dessert. I was hoping they’d offer to cover dessert since I covered lunch but it didn’t happen.

I am fine w/ paying but I was hoping the gesture would at least be presented… am I crazy?

It’s 2020. Is a small dainty nose ring still perceived as unprofessional in the workplace? I work in the finance industry.

Is there any resources someone can point me to about the potential legal issues and more information from an HR perspective about contingent employees (temps, contract workers, part-time workers) versus normal FTE’s?

I’m working on a project for an HR class and finding good sources with real evidence about this from SHRM and news publications has been rough. Thanks!

Struggling to find good workers who will stick around for a while… Is high turnover just a truth of retail that I’ll have to accept?

How is the Corona affecting your jobs?

Can anyone recommend a no code tool that’s affordable for home use?

What are the best consulting firms in the capital markets and/or investments world?

Would now be a good time to start investing and buying stocks? They are on sale but also this thing coulda go on fire a while.. and cash is king. Also, what brokerage firm do you recommend?

I have an informational interview with a Managing Director on Friday about a manager role. I currently serve in a client services role and do not have traditional consulting experience (billable hours, etc.). Additionally, while I’ve worked with McKinsey, Accenture, McKesson, and other teams on major projects, I don’t have experience putting together the strategy, more of a support function. Feeling a tad intimidated! Any tips would be so very appreciated!

what you say about Capgemini Salesforce practice? salary, benefits? culture?

NFLX getting hammered in after hours trading due to an earnings miss. They could turn this ship around if they limited number of devices for one account. My in-laws have Netflix and 5 families are using it including me and the Mrs. I’ll be sending Netflix an invoice for my work.

Project just wrapped (early) and now I’m on the bench between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Just exactly how screwed am I trying to find a new gig before Xmas? Same approach as normal? Any tips?

Definitely not a fan of Westin's "Eat Well" proposition. I'm working in the room at 2:00 AM and the most appetizing menu item is a cold turkey avocado and arugula wrap. I just want a burger and fries!

Anyone with experience negotiating Big 4 consulting salary? Curious how flexible they are with the pay scales.

What is the value in professional certifications? ACCA, CFA, CIPD, etc.

Why do people ping total strangers “hi” with zero context and expect a response? Just odd

Found out today I got accepted into a Professional MBA program that I was seriously doubting I’d get into 😃😃😃 maybe it wasn’t such a Monday after all

90% utilization, great snapshots BUT no relationships with the partners in my practice + currently on beach. Everyone I've worked with is shocked. Was told there were HC quotas. Not meritocratic.

Can you share your meeting preparation process or tips with me? Recently promoted to SC and finding that I need to really plan out meetings more than I did as a C. Thanks!

Can I load my iCloud photos to my MacBook to free up iCloud space? If so how?!!!

Serious question: Sheraton cancelled my reservation and I was stranded for a night last night. Called CS and my useless ambassador and they cant help and “sorry”. How do I escalate this?

Are there any books or classes about convincing people that have irrational arguments? Trying to figure out how to frame conversations that lead to my conclusions that aren't based in logic and fact.

Thoughts on EW MBA from Booth/Kellogg/Haas. Currently SC at Deloitte and want to transition to tier 1 consulting firms
