Most Big 4 will only give MacBooks out to those whose practices or clients require them. The cost of ownership is usually quite a bit higher than the Windows laptops.

That said, PwC is set to increase the availability them next fiscal year but they’ll still need a business case or partner approvals.

Just scored 700 on my GMAT and I feel like a bag of crap. For reference, I put in 300+hrs into my studying, which is overkill but the course I signed up for took this long.

I wanted to use this to strengthen my app to BCG as an experienced hire and possibly for an MBA in the future.

For the MBA programs I'm looking at this score is fine but is this a score that can help my BCG app in a MCOL Canadian city?

Six months ago a financial conglomerate offered me a position. The pay and benefits were really good so I took it. Now, I’ve realised this company is dangerously toxic so I deeply regret leaving the firm.

Past week my former manager asked me if I would have any interest in coming back so I said yes. Then she said she would have some conversations to test if it’s alright to bring me back in.

It’s been a week since we talked. Is it okay to reach out and ask for any updates?
