The fuck is a data entry project??! 🤦🏼‍♂️

Yes. Welcome to Deloitte. Is it an AML project?

I learned how to code, let the program do that job and learn something else that’s useful

@M1 they aren't called data entry projects. But they are operationally data entry. Mind numbing shit.

But what is it? Why they don’t offshore data entry?

Just think of it as "Data management for Business insights enablement".

@KPMG 2 yes, it’s an AML project. Any advice or similar experience?

@m1 not sure why they don’t offshore. I’m assuming because it’s a bit more than that, but 90% of it is mind numbing data entry

Advice is to leave Deloitte Advisory or get at least out of the AML practice (but the second option does not guarantee you will not be on AML work). It brings a lot of money for the leadership, and they will not stop staffing you on it unless there is a client project with an urgent need that is bringing in more bucks. These projects also last 1-2 years.

Also leaving Deloitte Advisory does not guarantee you won't see such projects (I had colleagues from MC working alongside me) but the pool in Consulting is larger so easier to avoid. Also do not let the words AML come anywhere close to your resume or profile.

I worked as a technical PM for a medium-sized adtech company in NYC in charge of 2 technical teams, and the business intelligence team.

On Thursday I was informed by the lead PO and HR that leadership had decided that the project management office was no longer necessary for the company and all three of us, the director and the two technical PMs, were being let go. None of us were given any notice.

They offered me 2 weeks of severance pay and I negotiated it to 3.

I have to travel to my client every week and the client’s office is attached to a very nice hotel that’s $250 per night. There’s a hotel right across the street that’s $150 per night.. it’s alright, but not as great. Should I be mindful about how much I’m spending or should I blow up the budget until someone says something?

Even to this day, I feel like I have crippling anxiety and imposter syndrome when speaking. It’s easier in project read outs and dedicated client meetings, but much worse when I’m going in cold or without a set agenda. Has anyone worked with / used a coach, tools, etc. to help with this? Recommendations?

bizarre situation. Working w older male partner and younger male associate on precedent- setting litigation, super important to client. Client’s entire mission is this litigation. Older male partner and younger male associate are buddy buddy and blowing off all my concerns. I point out writing deficits, problems with our arguments, areas we need to tighten up and they see me as annoying and overly pedantic. Not sure if I should go to female dept chair abt this or just keep quiet.

I’ve spent a long time working in nonprofits and higher education and I am so excited that I’ll finally be leaving. I feel like I’ve been in a cult for over 10 years and I feel extremely jaded and played. Yes I know many of you are going to laugh at me for believing that working for nonprofits or education was a good thing, but I sincerely did think that what I was doing was for the greater good. I’m embarrassed I used to think that way. I can’t wait to leave and never come back. 🏃🏾‍♀️
