How is the work culture there?
Is it a good company in terms of hikes, roles, promotions and benefits.

Is it better than joining Deloitte
Considering salary in Yash is a little less than Deloitte.

Got an offer from Evalueserve, Gurgaon.
Current Role - Lead Business Analyst (AM in EY) - 12 LPA - 7.5 YOE - Domain - HR & Finance
Questions -
1) How is the work culture in Evalue as compared to EY India?
2) They are asking to join within 1 month, can this be extended to 2 months which is NP at EY?
3) I have asked for 17 LPA fixed. So, how abt the salary structure over there? Negotiations are still happening. So, how much can they give.
4) Work life balance is imp, so how abt the same?

Question for BCGer: I am not clear about how to compare promotion timelines with McK/Bain.

My understanding of the promotion timeline is the following:

Consultant to PL -> 21 (if you were an A at BCG) to 30 months

PL to Principal -> Minimum 45 months of tenure as a C+PL

Principal to Partner -> 21 months of Principal tenure, but can only promote in Jan or May (?)

Partner to MDP -> Absolutely no clue how this works

This might be all wrong, so super happy to be corrected.

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company. I have not done any consulting before so I am not sure how it works, what I would need to set up (they mentioned that I would start a LLC and bill them directly, no idea how to do that), how to determine the tax implications of this, or what hourly rate I would expect. Can anyone offer advice?

Anyone feel victimised or traumatised by their choice of profession in Law? Anyone planning an exit plan? Any feeling regret for ever considering law? Anyone thinking about saying farewell to law and becoming a yoga teacher instead? I am only 30 now... I wonder how I will feel at 50 still stuck in law.

Can anyone relate to working from home and having children at home 24/7 due to mandatory virtual schooling? It seems as if my male colleagues do not understand why I can’t meet the billable hours each month. I haven’t had a paralegal or any admin assistance in 7 months. And one response I received today was “Can’t you just lock them out of your office.” No I can’t. And the firm is making 7k per month revenue off of me but wanting the double my billing.

Any adjunct professors here? I’m teaching a trusts and estates course for paralegals. My biggest fear is not having enough material to discuss for 4 hours straight. Any tips?

There is a partner in our office that routinely discusses associate performance with other associates. For example, she will tell Associate A that Associate B isn’t performing and/or hitting hours, etc. Recently, I learned that she has been discussing “issues” she had with my work product two years ago (I no longer do any work for her). Is this something I should bring up? It bothers me that she is talking about me to others.

What attorney position (generally speaking) has the least burnout and best work life balance? I realize I’m totally generalizing here, but just wondering everyone’s thoughts and experiences.

How do you deal with the sedentary lifestyle that comes with being overloaded at work and needing to be in front of the computer most days, sometimes into the AM just to get things done? I’ll have a good week where I get to go to the gym everyday, and then 2 weeks of it being impossible, having super late nights, throwing off my sleep schedule and still not keeping up. It’s frustrating and feel hopeless when lack of time is literally the factor, not some excuse

I supervise a team of 15-20 attorneys. Most of them have more years of experience than me (mid-aughts grad). I have 4 new hires who are about 2 months in that call/email/message me about everything and do not make an effort to find answers for themselves even though we have many resources available. I am trying to be patient because they are new to the team (not to the profession) but I do have my own workload and others to supervise. How can I politely suggest they try to be self sufficient?

Anyone used Botox to treat TMJ/teeth-grinding? My dentist said i should get a mouth guard and potentially do some physical therapy. I seem to be doing a lot of clenching/teeth grinding in the night.

I’ve been practicing trusts and estates in State A for the last 4 years. My husband just got his dream job (high paying, lots of career opp for him) in State B. We’re still deciding what makes most sense for our family, but we’re leaning toward heading to State B. Anyone have any experience with this - moving states when your practice area is so state specific? I’m worried how I’ll market myself/find a new job/start over. I work with a family member in my current job, so that’s another layer...
