Old-school or Instagram flavour?

Ah the nouveau riche. Delightful.

Avoid the ones that have been turned into glorified hotels.

Any ones that aren't horrible in terms of gender diversity but have a good mix of people? Very disappointed with Soho House...

I don't think you'd have much of a better time if you joined one of the old man clubs, which is what the vast majority are.

Also keen to understand this, but I feel like as a gay Asian immigrant I probably won’t find one that fits 😂

For the memes

Wanted to check with this group if anyone has any experience of how is it like working as network expert? Also how does it work wrt to your employer, do you need to discuss this with employer to get any clearance to engage with them? Also how does it work from tax perspective, do you have to set-up separate company and hence tax code? Would appreciate inputs.

Hi everyone,
I Received a first offer from Deloitte 2 weeks ago that I countered and they accepted to raise it.
The recruiter in charge of my case was on holidays and he came back to work last week.
Sent him two emails asking when I should expect the new set of documents, but no reply until today.
Is this normal? Does a new offer necessarily have to go through the same steps as the first one ? Because I waited 10 days between the verbal offer and the written one for the first time.
Thanks!
