@ATK1 um... nah. Ignoring Neo Nazis walking down your street is *not* the answer. And responding to violence and hate speech with self defense isn't wrong. This is not a "both sides" situation, at all.

Sad.

I'm guessing there were more consultants (and more of every type of person) in the counter-protest. The right way to deal with the far fringe of any stripe is to ignore them. Engaging them only validates them and when a similarly extreme and potentially violent group like anti-fa engages, there is going to be a mess. The police lost control of it, tragically.

Hi everyone! In addition to my consulting job, I’ve been editing resumes / cover letters on the side for years. I’ve been offering my services free of charge for those who have been laid off due to COVID—19, and have edited 350 resumes since the start of the pandemic. It’s been an awesome way to give back during this strange time. I’m now building a team to help me expand this initiative—if you’re interested, feel free to PM me!

What are promotional raises looking like for your firm from associate to senior associate? Apparently GT is only doing a 7% raise (per multiple folks in the GT bowl). In the past, most folks have received at least 15% up to 25% if you exceeded expectations, from what I’ve seen. If other firms are higher, I might consider jumping boats because 7%, even mid pandemic is a slap in the face. Especially for someone who exceeded expectations.
