Partners- At what point in your career did you feel like you had financially “made it”?

Has anyone working tech for a bank been laid off yet? Tech layoffs all over the media but no one is talking about developers at banks (who make up 1/3 of headcount in some cases)

What does the technical assessment at Wynshop go over?

Does anyone know of any part time positions in healthcare? Wanted to get into medical sales. I have a ton of time outside of work so I figured it could be a good opportunity to make some extra cha-ching

I am 25 years old with roughly no savings. I am a consultant with a technical background. Are there any tips in side jobs/ways to make more money for savings?

Personal finance book recommendations?

Do you have a prenup? What does it involve?

Is Deloitte USI specifically in Oracle Cloud Technology, Is it doing layoffs? Level Senior Consultant

When FAANG companies are hiring for UX Design positions do they count all of your general design YOE or only the YOE in a UX role ?

🌟What's happening Wednesday🌟
What's going on in Charlotte? Let's use this thread to share events, concerts, holiday festivities, and other fun things happening in the city this weekend!

I’m sure this is a noob question, but I want to buy my first luxury watch... what should I go for?

Hi folks, I have joining on 14th April. Can anyone please tell me what are general onboarding processes are? Which docs should I keep ready with me for first day?

I lead our SOC practice for a US mid tier cpa/consulting firm. I've been losing a lot of deals due to lower cost / boutique vendors who are partnered with these SOC automation platforms (Vanta, Laika, etc.). Have any of you used these tools for the audit and what has your experience been like? Thanks

This is the only bowl I can think to post in, but I'm really feeling it today. Has anyone lost their best friend (i.e. through time/growing up) and feel like none of their current friends could live up to the fun/connection you used to have with your high school BFF? I feel like I put too much focus on that one friend and also my boyfriend and just never actually made time for anyone else. I fucked myself over.

I need a new rec on a consistently good daily red. $20-30/bottle price point - I tend to go for Sangiovese, Chianti, and Pinot Noir. Thoughts?

Any advice for how to transport wine during a move (1,000 miles driving)? There’s only about 15 bottles i actually care about from my collection - I’ll probably end up just drinking the other 30 by the time we move.

How does the pre-tax parking benefit work at kpmg? There isn't much detail on ssc or benefits connection but it seems like it is on the honor system vs a separate account like FSA?

Partners, when do you think informal communication regarding new PPMDs will start trickling in?

Curious what % of partners/MDs have spouses who also work. And regardless of non/working spouse, what do you do to feel a work/family balance?

Do partners know each other’s compensation? I see partners selling engagements for vastly different numbers b/w shorter ‘interesting’ strategy work and longer ‘boring’ transformations. Thoughts?

Discuss the pros and cons of a partner who boomeranged out to industry and came back vs. a partner who’s a consulting lifer. Who does better in the long run?

Partners, what's been the impact to ongoing sales conversations? Do you think we're all screwed for the year?

Dear Partners-
Have any of you switched firms to make P? Worth it? Tips? Have always planned to make at my firm, but my firm isn’t keeping up their end of the deal, so I’m job hunting....

Getting pushed into the director path, should I be looking elsewhere?

Anyone got the skinny on Alix consulting?

Got pinged by a recruiter for an MD role in digital transformation

He claims they compete with MBB and Alvarez.

Thoughts?

I’m one of the top performers in the company and got invited to the company’s emerging leadership program. I always meet all my goals and deliverables on time but still feel like half of the time I’m not even doing anything (or performing my best). How do I leverage this ‘off-time’ into something productive in order to progress faster?

Partners - What are your thoughts on our delivery centers? Have you utilized them on your engagements? Interested in your experiences

Looking for advice in context of being a EY SM that will be part of NewCo if it goes through. Would I be better off shooting for MD this year vs waiting 2-3 years for Partner?

PPMDs, what tips you would give if your client is a Member Firm? I am an incoming project manager, lateral hired from industry. Please share your thoughts about how to make an impact from day 1.

can an MD at B4 in the SAP practice become a partner in some time ?

Partners with kids and a working spouse, how do you manage? Is it realistic for both people in the relationship to work full time long term? How do you keep marriage going and career progressing?

Anyone else out there not like dinners and drinking all the time? Sometimes feel like an outsider because of it. If so then how do y’all deal with it?

Would you say being a partner is more demanding than being an industry exec?

Why don't firms invest in R&D for Artificial General Intelligence? Seems like this would be a powerful tool to have as a consultancy

PwC partners have any comments on the cohort model? A lot of complaints in PwC bowl arising from the disappointing adjustment and the constraints the model has imposed on career growth
