New to Deloitte. Can a project not let you leave? Colleague has been trying to roll off and leadership won’t let him leave even though he has expressed his desire to leave. I fear that this project might do the same for me even though I plan to stay for at least a year.

Yes they might not let you leave. But a very easy solution is to switch firms😂.

Looking for tips. College was not for me while I was young. Since then I have built a great track record at my previous job in sales, succeeded in a project manager internship, and have exceeded at the role for a year now. Unfortunately, I do not like the direction the company is headed in and want to move on. I have gazed at new companies but the lack of “education” seems to be a reoccurring obstacle. Being in the bay area competition for these roles can be a bit tough. Any tips or tricks?
