As premba, MBB. PostMBA, FAANG

Also from just a life perspective, MBB is much more sustainable when you’re young. Traveling and working 60+ hours a week is way worse at 30 with a family. And the MBA sponsorship opportunity for an undergrad is a big perk you obviously don’t get at post-MBA.

Hi..for a business analyst of 6 yoe what are the technical courses that can be taken up?

Tomorrow, I know I will be asked to continue pushing forward with pre planned campaigns that upsell products and services that to groups already in dire straits. After the events of this weekend, I ethically disagree with acting “business as usual”. I’ll raise this with my team, but I anticipate a crossroads with leadership (I am fairly new, younger, junior, woman POC to the org.) If this results and BAU does not change, is it more right to leave my job? Or stay where change is needed?

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.
