Naive question: I’ve heard Deloitte will sometimes buy unused PTO if there’s a case to be made on your inability to use it in the year due to project demands.

Has anyone had this actually happen?

I think that's more of a last minute decision by a senior principal on your engagement's account and probably comes out of their P&L. I strongly doubt it's common.

D1 - tru dat
M2 - that’s a good point about where the P&L sits. I’ll ask my team. See what happens.

Hello everyone

I have been in the Customer success manager position for the last 1 and a half years and working in an IT company in Gujarat. I want to relocate to dubai. Does my experience help me to get a decent salary job as a CSM or Project manager in Dubai?

Thank you in advance.

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.

I always pay my balance in full each month and have never missed a payment, how is 8% credit utilization determined to be that big of a risk that my score got immediately wrecked, I don’t understand
