Looking to return to singapore from the us. Spent the last 10 years consulting in the us - 4 with ibm and 6 with slalom. Any tips on which firms to target or avoid, based on prospects and culture?

Hi All, I joined Deloitte a few months back. I have not been able to adjust to the work culture and stress and pressure of my work. There are literally days when I just feel lost, so much that I have slipped into depression. I don't enjoy my job at all and I'm seriously thinking of quitting without any backup. I am thinking of taking a break for 2-3 months and just focus on my mental health. How bad of an impact it will have on my career and how difficult it will be to find a new job again?

What firm has the best balance of good comp/good culture and wlb for revenue cycle consulting? Thinking about my goals for 2020 and would like to explore other firms. 2 YOE in rev cycle consulting.

I keep seeing these remote privacy attorney positions for Verasafe but can find very little about them online. Anyone work for Verasafe/have knowledge (hours, comp, culture, etc)? I'm currently at an AM100 in civ lit with some privacy exp./CIPP looking to make a full pivot into privacy.

So I have been going through multiple rounds of interviews - I’m 4 weeks into the process and I have already gotten 4 rejections. Here’s what I have learnt (sharing in case it’s helpful) ..

Might be a bit controversial. As a non-Western (ie not Asian-American or equivalent) Asian person, I kind of find it a bit weird that AAs talk of Asia as their homeland, especially when they hardly speak the language/ spend the time there. Wonder if there’s any parallel to how the real Africans feel about fetishisation of Africa by African-Americans, or how Italians would laugh at Americans who brag about their “Italian Mama” who maybe had a grandad from Naples. AAs, what makes you Asians?

Would you choose Bain or BCG if you had both offers and planned on staying in consulting for a while?

I realized that I hate being married. My spouse is really nice, attractive, fit, supportive, and a good parent, but just hate the concept of marriage. I hate having to decide things together, being considerate, comprising, and making an effort for another person. I want to be selfish and not care. I would get divorced if not for the kids, but since we have a good relationship, not sure if it's worth the trouble. Anyone else feel like that? Is this normal?

I moved here from the midwest and still struggle to relate to a lot of the woo woo green juice yoga culture. Are there people here who are a little more traditional? I don't mean to be judgmental, just wondering if that's all of LA.

What’s working in the creative department like at the Olson Minneapolis office? Considering relocating from Chicago and interested in learning more about the creative culture at MN agencies.

Is K&E a toxic firm? I have heard nightmare stories from current and former attorneys there.

I have a hard time getting along with my future mother in law. She likes to talk about money, judging people/me and I never heard her compliment others. I understand it maybe her culture and background make her that way. But every time after she visited us I am extremely unhappy. She is picky about food I make, always want things changed in my house etc. Herself is not wealthy like she acts so maybe that’s why she comes off that way? She visits us quite often and I don’t know what to do…

Thoughts on the culture and career path at Blackrock? Have some interviews lined up

I have an upcoming final round interview for an M&A role and I’m considering reaching out to someone on the broader M&A team thru LinkedIn (who I’m not interviewing with) to get a sense of the team and culture. If I were to get the job, this would be a peer of mine. I’m also hoping this may help me gain insights for the final round. Any chance reaching out to someone on the side could hurt my candidacy? Should I just wait until after the final round? FWIW, we do have a few shared connections.

Anybody have insight on work / culture at RAPP NYC?

How is Johannes Leonardo lately? Have heard that it’s a sweatshop culture on here but want to see if things have changed recently.

Did anyone work or work at McCann’s @gotham? Curious to know the current culture and atmosphere of the agency. Is it a pleasant and encouraging place to work if you like beauty/fashion, or more of a soul-crushing place with unreasonable demands/managers?

Yeah you're right. It cuts after two lines instead of expanding.

Posting from the top side.

Ah now it did.

The PwC Transparency report on diversity was co-signed by 3 white people and included multiple stock BIPOC photos. One important group was omitted: retired partners on pensions... 99% white?? 100%?? For this inaugural report the bar has been set very low.

I’m a fairly new consultant so haven’t experienced too much of the pre-covid consulting life. I’m now wondering how all of you would get any chores done? I can’t imagine squeezing in anything during the week and then weekend suddenly there would be so much to do?

Are consulting layoffs / hiring sprees a good way to gauge the "pulse" of the economy? Is a downturn near with all these layoffs we've been hearing about?

The posts about layoffs seem to have stopped. Yay!

Is it crazy to pay $60-70k initiation fee to join a country club? Absolutely love to golf and the family would use all of the other amenities. How insane is this?
