Lol lek is a DD factory, I’m a top performer and have only been on DDs. Outside of life science strategy I’d guess other industries probably have 10% strategy projects at best. Our o&p practice (operations) has 1-2 projects going on at once...

^this sounds like a manager/MD from the “stat you listed”. On a value basis maybe but no way on a volume basis. Also if you disaggregate for industry (and remove LS), this would not be even close to the case

LEK is a DD factory, if you sign on you are signing on to pretty much all that comes with it and during deal downturns you’re gonna be rocked. EYP, while DD heavy, has a broader mix of projects.

They’re probably low performers @eyp1 to get stuck with that lol

I’m sorry but what was DD really do? I thought DD was heavy at Parthenon and that’s a good thing becuase you learn a lot? Please help me clarify!

Agree with BA1. DDs are generally pretty cool (market and company depending) and a great learning experience but timelines are tight and so they’re best mixed in with breaks or longer cases

Can anyone speak to how LEK is doing as a firm? Deal pipeline, any layoffs, etc.

Thanks BA1 and LEK1. Exploring opportunities at LEK, EY Parthenon - have a skillset & experience that could add value to the team but didn't want to waste their time if they weren't considering exp hires given the current economic climate.

If you are at LEK now, I'd welcome the opportunity to connect to discuss further.

Very similar business mixes. I can speak to LEK but don’t know much about EYP. Know some great people there though

Hi All,
I am feeling lost in job. So I’ve applied for Accounts payable they offered 40k. I said why not to gain some experience. I didn’t even bother negotiating which I regret.
Fast forward I noticed that I was eventually handed everyone’s workload (AR & imports & duty and check coworker work + AP) Spoke to them about pay increase based on workload. So they raised it to 55k.. but I still feel underpaid based on the amt of work I do. I don’t know what my title or what to put on resume..

I’m seeing lots of posts about really bad losses. If you trade you’re going to lose money - hopefully not all the time, but many positions will be mistakes. But you need a process to find ideas and manage positions. Two books you should read are “The New Trading for a Livinng” and “The Laws of Trading.” Both look at psychology, process, and risk in different ways that can help you work out your own process. The next 18 months will be much harder than the last 18 - time to start learning.
