I’d rather be in a hotel than DU. I hear DU is nice. But would rather get points and have a little more freedom than what DU offers.

DU is a combination of prision (you’re not allowed to leave and behind locked gates) and a college dorm (lots of rules).

Deloitte, EY just hosts you in Hotels

DU as of now. I think Lakehouse will take the cake though

DU is way nicer than St Charles (especially the beds)...,
but St Charles has the Cadillac ranch haha..DU doesn’t even have free booze anymore (heard that some Analyst group back in the day spoilt it for the rest of us)...

Saint Charles doesn’t have free booze either

like

Deloitte university is pretty cool. KPMG lake house opens in January so we’ll see how that is

DU. EY training and facilities not in same league.

At KPMG Lakehouse you do not have to share rooms

Staff food chefs service and facilities are incredible. Think of an luxury all-inclusive resort.

New to consulting and the big 4 - have been extended on the same project since joining. The project does not align to the skills or experience I was hired for and has been extremely challenging due to the lack of project organization and proper staffing. I received ‘progressing towards level’ on my last engagement review. How do I get off this project that’s clearly not a fit before it negatively impacts my overall career at the firm?

And, unfortunately, this doesn't work all the time
