Left MBB 2 years post Mba to pursue equivalent pay and amazing wlb in a “big old tech” strategy team (think IBM, Dell, HP). I thought boring work would be fine in the context but after 1 year it’s getting to me. How would you think about exit timing to avoid “leaving too fast” but also avoiding becoming branded as an old tech guy? Does the old tech experience look bad for FAANG-like prospects?

When is it worth it to take a pay cut? Received an offer from a startup today, the salary they are offering me is 30% below my current salary - offered them my range during the interview but they stuck to their initial salary when they sent me the offer. No 401k, no WFH, but they have unlimited PTO. They are also offering me 10k shares of common stock (25% vested 1 year after the date vesting begins and the remaining on a monthly basis over the next 3 years). How does this translate to $ amount?

Does Capgemini prefer hiring female employees over male employee?

I left my last job because I didn't appreciate the culture (B4). However, it was probably because I was a terrible employee. However, I do find that my clients love me 10x more than my consulting colleagues. I joined a smaller firm to cover up the problem.

I drink during the day. I know it's the main reason for my ability to be a productive employee. Anyone else deal with this? I'm trying to control it through moderation management, Dharma meetings, therapy, and white knuckling.

How easy is it to move up market from LMM as a VP?

I’ve done PI work my entire career for over 10 years. I’ve worked in state and federal courts and I’ve traveled around the country doing MDL work and bellwether trials. I’ve had a lot of success making the idiots I’ve worked for wealthy, but I’m still waiting for a moment where I enjoy what I’m doing. I feel stuck working in dysfunctional plaintiff firms/cultures. I hate this profession/career more and more each year. Has anybody been successful breaking off on their own in recent years? Advice?

Anyone know of a good app/site that blocks your access to specific applications for a selected time?

Embarrassing to admit but I have a hard time putting my phone down and I’m sick of wasting my time. I’ve only found ones that allow you to block access to selected apps but it also allows you to end the blocking period whenever you’d like (thus not really helping my ADHD impulses). Open to hearing suggestions!

That scene in "Silicon Valley" joking about Christians being the marginalized of the tech world is true. I got the dirtiest look when someone asked what I did over the weekend and I responded "Church."

How long do you think the job market will be hot like this? Is it worth while waiting until June for bonuses?

The work-life balance sucked this year as everyone is forcing to go back to offices. I'm really contemplating on going freelance but I've not heard many freelancing Project Managers, is this rare? Is this a niche, do I need to have a portfolio of clients? (Looking to avoid work drama and seeing if it's worth it before calling on stress leave?)

Does anyone get cold feet after receiving an offer and think that if you just stayed a little longer, maybe something better would come by?

Wth are recruiters calling my work cell? Anyone else experiencing this?

Have the opportunity to join health strategy or data science groups (one is in strategy the other regular consulting). Since I’m trying to leave for more PM tech roles, does the Accenture strategy brand carry more weight in industry than data science if I want to exit?

Hi Fishes,

Anyone looking for Business Analyst in their team in around NYC/Philadelphia area ?

2+ years WOE along with Masters degree in Information system

So I got a job at big4 years back through direct hiring manager referral. Years later I got an offer from a crypto company also thru direct hiring manager referral. At some level I feel like interviews don’t get me any far than relationships. Thoughts?

Is it hard to boomerang back into consulting after taking an offer at a late stage tech startup? Previous experience at ACN and EY for reference and about to jump for a dream offer but just curious since I could hate it.

I feel like using star method in interviews in overrated. I stopped using STAR and finally started to get offers. It’s better to be genuine and let the conversation flow than to stick to a structure. Thoughts? Maybe I just got lucky.

What’s the best way to submit resignation? Who’s the best person to contact since your managers change based on project? Should I just reach out to HR directly or tell my current manager directly. I usually just send an email but normally it’s for companies I don’t care for. I actually like Pro so I want to leave on a good note. I also want to avoid sharing where I’m going cause I don’t like anyone to know until I update my LinkedIn. Thanks

For those of you that transitioned to industry /PE ops (as in my case), do you still see the same level of outreach from recruiters? I’ve seen a big drop in recruiter calls in the last 4 months or so.

How difficult is it to go from bizops at FAANG to MBB without prior consulting experience?
