Partner wants me to schedule a client lunch. I know a Sushi buffet w/ many reviews claiming to have gotten food poisoning. How fired am I if I choose this place so I can remote the rest of the week?

Do you think it is quite possible to get fired by asking too many questions as an experienced senior 1? If so, i might get fired after this busy season.

My manager feeds me 100 chole bhature & then my tummy hurts so I ask her to give me a leave but then she declines my request and feeds me 1 more plate of chole bhature then I die because of excess gas formation inside my stomach, then I poop & become alive once again then my boss notices that im alive again and feeds me 109 plates of kadi chawal and this goes on and on and on and on

How often do you cry at your job? I cry usually one day a week triggered by stress/overwhelm but want to know if this is a typical response

When an interviewer asks you to summarize your resume and you’ve been at 5+ consulting companies, what level do you tell the story? I want to touch on accomplishments and maybe one complicated project at each but I feel like it’s lengthy.

Does anyone else constantly have lint in their belly button? Can be 30 minutes post-shower, right when waking up, mid-day, it doesn’t matter.

Working with another agency on a project and think I'd rather work there. Protocol for reaching out to someone to pick their brain? Email? LinkedIn message?

Could be a silly question — i am beginning to look for a new apartment in the city and ideally want to rent from private landlords rather than going thru Apartment People / @ Properties / Compass, etc. How do you find private landlords?! I have good credit and am very clean! A landlord would love me lol

Does anyone have a poor relationship with their alma mater? This can be in general or department specific. For example, I have always felt disappointed with career services from my law school. I feel struggling alumni, like those that failed the bar or remain unemployed long enough to be recorded as negative statistics for the school’s ranking, have already done their damage so they have no incentive to help you any further.

Reading “the call” posts on LinkedIn is a cold reminder to be grateful for having a job. Too many career employees who gave their prime years to their employers are having to face a daunting job market. I pray many of them land on their feet, and truly hope they don’t face too much age discrimination. Any one of us could be or has been in similar shoes....

Has any firm done anything in the way of extensive EA training/networking within their NA offices via a program retreat? I'm guessing it's a hard sell, but it seems it would be beneficial. Anyone?

Interviewing client side for the first time, what are some good questions to ask that one might not think about at an agency?

I have accepted an offer for the role of Director of Data Science & Analytics and I'll be working with old colleagues. I am very excited. I haven't given notice yet because I am waiting for the background check to complete, but my boss just asked me about traveling to a meeting in November. I start at the new job Oct 25. I'm really struggling for how to respond. If I were not leaving it is absolutely a meeting I should be at. I don't want to respond with a lie. Any dvice on how to respond?

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

Had an offer from Meta before going with PwC back in Jan (more money at Mgr level) but now that I’m traveling again, working longer hours, considering to apply again. Been contacted twice by the recruiter to do so, but not sure what to do… anyone have advice? Knowledge of both sides?

Which job would you rather have?

Everyone is a total moron, you are the smartest guy in the room, constantly needing to be patient with idiots who do everything the wrong way and they aren't likely to learn or change. You can totally coast and delegate most of your work away and be cushy.

Or,

You barely know what you are doing, everyone is smarter than you, clever and competitive, and you have a constant case of imposter syndrome, except it's not just your imagination, you are unprepared.

Hello everyone,
I would love to get in touch with any former MBB consultants that can judge my casing abilities and prep. I am a fresh graduate interviewing for the analyst role. I want to receive constructive feedback and learn more about you!

M/SM and above, why do you label a meeting as “touch point” or ask if you can have a “quick chat” when it’s something serious? Millennials like us always assume we’re about to get fired - I actually have been laid off in a meeting with that title. But at my new job, my boss asked for a “quick chat” to literally ask me to change the title of a meeting and then chat about christmas. Now that I’m in management, I want to understand it better.

How do you keep yourself motivated to keep applying to jobs? Got a rejection letter today from the one place I applied and I’m already burnt out.
