People who switched firms, what differences stood out to you? For me I went from PwC to Deloitte and now realize how good I had it with Google suite VS Skype and Outlook.

I could never leave Microsoft office for work… I always felt bad for the google suite people

And Skype is dead from what I know. Or if it’s still around, it’s a legacy app. It’s all about Teams now

IMO it's all minor differences, UI is cleaner and it's easier to do stuff like check your coworkers calendar or see who accepted a meeting in Google Calendar.

Hit character limit but there are some other things. Snapshot feedback seems more immediate and detailed at PwC, but I did change LOS and I've heard this varies between audit and advisory. PwC makes you get on the VPN for basically everything which was annoying when it didn't play well with clientsite internet, Deloitte doesn't require VPN except for certain applications.

Went from pwc to EY and completely agree on the google vs outlook. I miss my Gmail and google calendar so much

Disagree, I prefer outlook over gmail. I do agree though wiith another post that the snapshot/feedback system was better at PwC

People still use Skype? I thought we switched to zoom

Maybe it's just my group but everyone I work with sends Skype DMs which I only find out about like 3 hrs after the fact, and even then I never know what they wanted. 😩

IEP, 504, and those without internet will return in-person next week while rest of students remain remote. Regular Ed teachers may have students (mild Learning Disabled kiddos) in their room while teaching. They are saying it’s a liability issue if they have one student in the room with them, even though teaching other via Zoom. Thoughts? Anyone else experiencing this?

I’m seeing lots of posts about really bad losses. If you trade you’re going to lose money - hopefully not all the time, but many positions will be mistakes. But you need a process to find ideas and manage positions. Two books you should read are “The New Trading for a Livinng” and “The Laws of Trading.” Both look at psychology, process, and risk in different ways that can help you work out your own process. The next 18 months will be much harder than the last 18 - time to start learning.
