Received offer at EY as Senior in People Consulting. Coming out of a cut from PwC. Can anyone share the culture at EY now, especially after layoffs last year? Anyone able to offer insight on culture, benefits, perks etc as compared to PwC. I did read the Better You info so know the basics.

2 years experienced Salesforce Developer.
Working with Big 4.
Current CTC : ~9.5L
Expected CTC : 30-35% hike

Accenture rejected my profile without even an interview due to budget issues.

Any referrals please where the expected CTC won't be an issue?

Just watched The (British) Office. It leaves you feeling depressed and hopeless. In other words it is way more realistic than the American version.

I just bought an Alexa for my grandma's birthday. Her old radio broke and she's been kind of sad because she can't listen to her favorite music anymore while cooking, so I thought this would be a good pick. She'll have her favorite music right there.

Later today my grandpa tells me she's not been asking Alexa for her favorite music, but for her radio stations instead 😭😂

Haven’t done the dating thing in a while so need advice! (F here) Met a guy at a party on Sat, followed each other on insta, then I dm’ed him my number saying “lmk if you want to get drinks sometime”. He then texts me and says something along the lines of “yeah let’s do it” but doesn’t offer any concrete plan. Does this mean he’s not super into it? Or am I overreacting and I should initiate the plan? I initiated the insta follow and the dm so I feel like it’s his turn…?

My firm typically does insurance defense, but we take plaintiffs cases here and there. Is it typical that work done by associates on contingency cases isn’t counted toward their billable hour requirements unless and until we receive our fee on the case? This is my first experience with this, but it’s hard for me to reach my hours as is, without spending time on non billable cases like this with no assurance that I’ll see billable credit at the end.

How much has stock options changed anyone’s life here? Just started at amazon and I received 1500 shares post split. But obviously the vesting schedule is so long over 4 years and morale certainly will be up and down. I feel I’d be crazy to walk away before then and miss out.

Those who want to join FAANG: don’t you think that the upward mobility is limited? Thousands of super ambitious MBB background people with top credentials joined these firms over the last decade.

Fishbowl finally updated according to my LinkedIn. Moved from PwC to Deloitte this week. Can't figure out how to find the Deloitte Consultants group, still in the PwC one 😒

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.

Anyone else scroll through LinkedIn and constantly feel behind in their career? Everyone I know is exiting from MBB to VC/PE and I’m still making peanuts at Big 4. How do you deal with knowing you’re mediocre/less sharp?

Why do some people get laid off and others not? Is it always utilization? Do people typically know they're at risk before it gets to that point?
