Partners, other than sales and staff development, what’s a few goals you focus on each year?

What’s the operating model like in your SE role? Are you tied to an account, account exec, region, etc?

SO and I are debating contributing to 401k this year since the rate of return is around -11% on our portfolios this year. I believe it would be better off saving the cash in my account.

I'm thinking of contributing again when/if the market picks up next year. Thoughts?

Recently got my CPA license in August & considering leaving public accounting for Industry. Should I expect my new role to pay for my CPA license renewals/AICPA membership/CPE classes? These things add up &I feel like should be considered when transitioning. Thoughts?

Hello everyone,
I have recently moved to Australia and so quite new to the job market here. I just wanted to understand what’s like an average pay which a SC is entitled to?
Please also mention your YOE, would help me with a more informed conclusion.

How is Bain&Company doing? Don’t see them making much news even on LinkedIn.

Interested in average age when folks make Partner / Principle at Deloitte Consulting? Thanks!

Currently being offered income partner at KPMG or director at Deloitte. I prefer Deloitte but they won’t budge to partner at this point. What would you do partners? Any advice?

Deloitte partners, I’m interviewing for Deloitte S&O manager. After reading posts here, my understanding is that there are 2 tracks.
Partner track: M, SM, AP, P
Cont...

@Partners - Is it possible for your firm to match a competing offer? How would one best approach this?

Constructive answers only- the current PMD hiring by Big4s, is it reflective of long term sustained demand? Have an opportunity to come in as a new partner, but curious if it is the rite long term decision …thoughts!

Honest constructive advise required - I am 37, left consulting as a SM now want to come back and being asked to come in as a SM and been told in 2 years there will be a path to Partnership….should I be fighting for direct MD or should I take the SM path and grow organically

KPMG partners, could you tell me what the implications are for taking 4 months maternity leave as a partner? I should be up for partner promotion next year and might be having a child as a partner. I'm guessing if you meet your targets, it doesn't really matter how much maternity leave you take as a partner but wanted to hear your thoughts on how parental leave (especially 4 months) affected your compensation, client relationships, teams, etc.

Partners, have you considered leaving this path to go into higher education/teaching?

I’m being considered for partner admission process and am concerned I have a DWI from a year ago - should I be? I’ve been a teetotaler since and have a clean record all through 15+ years of career.

Great discussion board

Anyone with experience hiring a maid-cook who lives in-house.

I just went through a divorce and will need an extra hand with my kid - preparing for the new single life. All advice is welcomed

Wife and kid are going to be out of town for the next 2 weeks. Instead of wasting time, I’d like to do something productive. What would you do if you have say 3+ hours a day. Maybe self help, wealth creation type books, work out daily, take care of some things around the house.

EY MD 🐠 , I’m a newly promoted MD and have a few questions on comp timelines I’m hoping you can help answer since there have been 0 comms to MDs on this 😔:
1. I’ve heard we don’t find out new salaries until mid-Aug with others below PP. Given others new comp doesn’t start until Oct, do you know if that’s when our new comp starts too even though our new titles are already effective?
2. Does the MD rating/comp timeline continue to follow the timeline for others going forward after the first yr?

Do clients ask for fixed price or T&M contracts or do you as PPD negotiate them into one or the other ?

I’ve got a partner that I’m moving away from group/service wise. A large part of the reason I’m still with the org is this person. How can I best approach mentorship or advice going forward?

Any partner looking for a mentee? I’m two years out of college and just started with a new consulting firm. Would appreciate any insight. Thanks!

Looking for inputs and insights into developing Executive Presence as an immigrant female. Any books, tutorials, live classes etc. that has helped anyone and willing to share? Also looking to hear what in your experience has been the reason that impedes the exec presence someone could potentially bring in a senior leadership setting. How does that differ for a M vs. F candidate?
