Some weeks feel like a constant sprint with no moment to breathe. Curious how others keep their clarity when the pace refuses to slow down?

Offer secured! Thanks to everyone in this bowl for keeping me focused on what matters. Peace out consulting ✌️

Can they see what you do in a work laptop? Would appreciate IT department from a consultancy to give some insight.

What is the partner process like at McK and BCG? Do they still get equity and pension like PwC? I am thinking about switching but it seems harder. I am just a Senior Associate.

What are the salary ranges for account executives at FAANG, Spotify and Uber?

joining PWC as M2 soon. Does anyone know what is a realistic average bonus one can expect at M2 level

I just left t2 strategy for a boutique firm, and I already regret it. I thought I liked consulting but wanted a different culture, but I realize that I don’t like strategy consulting- the timelines are too stressful and I don’t want to travel anymore.
I’ve only been at this company a month- is it way too early to start applying elsewhere? I feel like I made a mistake and I don’t want to miss out on the “great reshuffling” with all these great opportunities.

Does anybody have good electric standing desk recommendations? Ideally in the $200-300 range.

Can I do 1031 exchange with the profits from the sale of a second home into the purchase of a primary?

Any inexpensive men’s black dress sock recommendations?

I'm not sure if I love this life! I was entirely sure when I decided to enroll in the military, but after a few months, I felt exhausted. Could I have made a mistake?

If we analyze our military incursions in the world, we entered Vietnam and Afghanistan, and in neither of them, we have done very well. We have had many casualties, and they say that this is normal in a war. I think we have a problem with military planning, who thinks the same?

Who is your role model?

Yay! Someone joined my group!

Just curious. Excluding business recovery / restructuring teams that are more counter-cyclical. What TS group do you think is the least cyclical? Valuation / modeling? Accounting advisory? Then lastly how “cyclical” do you view them?

If there’s anything NYC teaches you most, it’s to be more independent than you already are.

Has anyone rented office space over the last year so that you didn't have to be stuck in your home all day? Was it worth it, or did you just feel lonely there?

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.

YOE: 11.5 Tech: QA Automation with Selenium-Java, BDD, API automation, Mobile Automation - Perfecto cloud, Appium. All the 11 years I am with automation only. Is it possible for me to learn new technology and switch. Recently acquired AWS cloud practitioner certification which is of no use to me now as they are asking for exp. I wanted to move to devops role. But without experience no one is giving opportunity and they are considering my profile as QA only 😒
