Hi fishes.
I am currently working in a SAP project. I have less than 1 yoe.
If I wanna switch my profile in future(say, I wanna go for data analytics or devops), how hard or easy is that gonna be? (I'm moderately proficient in python and sql)
Is it common to switch fields like this?
And, do interviewers ask DSA questions for data analyst / business analyst roles?

Do you think using “him/her” for “he/she” (ex: “her is playing” “him not here yet”) is something that kids usually grow out of? Or does it need direct intervention? I have 2 students who exhibit this error, who otherwise should be dismissed. Normally I’d just keep them on and work on it alongside other goals, but they don’t have any other goals, and with COVID, and my upcoming maternity leave in March, a more compact caseload would be advantageous.

Anyone have a sense of why Deloitte got hit so hard by layoffs? I’ve heard four potential reasons:
1. Client mix / type of work
2. Leverage
3. Over hired in anticipation of growth
4. Partners didn’t want to take a haircut

Just curious! From an external perspective, seems like they cut way more than the other firms.

I am an Associate in Corporate Cash Management filling in for pat leave. The person is expecting to return in Sept.

TIA!

Who has an amazing marriage? I need a marriage mentor of sorts-I believe that an amazing marriage can be my marriage but I need help. I don’t have couple friends who are in amazing marriages. Most tolerate or are divorced. We have mentors for other big parts of our lives-career, being a mom…not really anything for marriage!

I have no idea where to post this, but is a anyone else super weirded out by LinkedIn lately? All these pictures of people using their kids as props for parental leave, or how their kid has a disorder and how proud they are? I just came across a post that was a woman lying next to her mom who had *literally* just died. I feel a little cold hearted saying it, but it is so over the top on what is supposed to be a professional network. Am I just totally out of touch?

Hadn’t noticed this sub before, and most of the threads are old so thought I’d ask a follow up - how has everyone been handling parenting with public accounting? I’ve got a toddler and my wife is an accountant (industry), and we only have a few immediate family in the country- but they have health concerns. Busy season was rough, things are looking better now as things return to normal. Still working crazy hours if you count the daycare duties on top of utilization targets.

Hey moms. Need some help. 3 month old baby spits up a lot about a half hour to one hour after feeding formula. He’ll be sitting in bouncer or boppy and it just comes out. We’ve been using the same formula since about when he was born so not sure why this happening now. And I do burp him after feeding but if one burp comes out then I consider it one and done. Thoughts?...
