Los Angeles PwC tax folks (not M&A) -according to the google sheet seniors are making between ~140k-~160k how realistic is that?

How do you find living on that over there? Yes depends on your lifestyle, but overall are you comfortable?

How's the culture? More red flags than usual? Yes team specific, but what's the toxicity ratio?

Started the internal GC process in October 2018. Today I-485 status changed to "we ordered your new card." My jail free card is finally on the way I guess. Hope everyone with pending I-485 gets your GC soon!

Hi Fishes, what is your approach of value adding to your project on top of regular work? By the way I am a test lead(automation) and have 11 yoe in a product company.

What’s a safe level of income to buy (or finance) a boat?
I’m aware they are money pits but want one to fish / get out on the weekends

Has anyone left EY and submitted a wageworks reimbursement in their last two weeks that they got paid for?

PwC 🐠: Be careful trying to switch competencies. A colleague of mine tried to move and got laid off in the process. Make sure you have the Partners approval first. (On the receiving end)

I have been tagged for this project that doesn’t start until June 10th. My utilization is going to drop significantly but at the same time the deployment team cannot present me elsewhere. Ugh!

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

How to deal with being rejected from a consulting job you want?

We've all been there (not just me I hope). It's so frustrating when the consulting one is a tough hill to climb. Has joining a smaller management consulting firm ever worked out for anyone?

I'd like to hope one day I could get into big 4 or even MBB.

Help - how do I fight claims by scammer healthcare providers?

I recently went to 2 different providers.

Dentist, made appt via Zocdoc to see a dentist that was in network. Another dentist at the location saw me instead who was out of network. I have text evidence they said it would be covered before visit. Claim was denied - asking for ~500 dollars.

Saw a specialist who’s office staff verified my insurance would fully cover the claim. Get the claim, says they are out of network. Owe 600.

Best consulting firms without the massive ego?

How is utilization calculated? What happens if we are on the bench?

Anyone have any good books for consultants? On strategy, problem solving etc

Bain fish, does anyone know how utilization in North America is trending for this year?

Hello all! I’ve been ghosted by a couple recruiters at Deloitte, with one saying I don’t have Big 4 experience. Hearing these words from the recruiters or lack of responsiveness has felt even more defeating. I do have consulting experience and am trying to break into the marketing sector of Deloitte. I’ve previously been offered a position but at the time turned it down because I was pursuing a passion of mine. Any connections/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Asking for advice: Working at a boutique doing ODD, and have found it not interesting to me due to levels of details. Anyone on the same boat? Would strategy consulting be different? Would product management be interesting?

Can I request to be removed from my project ASAP? Working long hours, lost 5 lbs in the last month, cannot get this project out of my mind. Big 4

Joining EY soon. Should I be worried about layoffs happening supposedly in June/July?

Thanks

Thoughts on Wealth Management as an industry? Offered a role to work under a senior FA and eventually take over the book (~$800M AUM and growing). It sounds great, but I am worried about the disruption this industry is facing with Robo advisors and other low cost, DIY options. I’d want to make sure the clients stay through the transition, and I don’t want to join a dying industry. Thoughts and advice?
