Question to ppl at MBB and other tier-2 front end Management or Strategy consulting folks.

How much hours are you guys clocking I am at niche consulting firm (no! Not KPMG) and work is just insane with everyday looking like 9am to 12am (or more). It feels I am putting hours of IB and getting salary of MC 😞

Yes man practice makes the difference. Coming to the point about start-ups and strategy roles. I'm not really sure about that. I have had really bad experiences with Startups before joining KPMG and during my SIP. So, for now I've sworn them off until and unless something remarkable comes up. Which is doubtful at the moment. My experiences have made me value culture and organisational ethics more than CTC or work. I can't work at a toxic place where one gets no respect or feels valued.

Hi Fishes, I need your help to make a decision.

I will be relocating to Bangalore so I also want to know the cost of loving in Bangalore.
Thanks

Hi. I’m in need of advice and encouragement. I’m currently working as a public defender(2nd year) but I would love to pursue a solo private practice.

What is a good way to gain experience in other areas of law as a solo practitioner? What areas of law are best for maintaining a work-life balance?
