Firstly congrats!! That’s a nice leave! What firm?

Thanks. The little guy was actually born last fall, so we're getting used to life with a baby. I had taken a few weeks of vacation at birth, but had delayed the Paternity Leave by a few months to take it when he's a bit more "active".

Enjoy your time with the little one. Sucks you only get 9 weeks, I got 12 with first one while industry and am now on 16 weeks (EY) with my 2nd kiddo

Yep 🇨🇦

Nice. I’m about to go out on 9 weeks too. Never had that much time off before, not quite sure what to expect

Will be leaving for a competitor (different consulting firm) soon and trying to figure out how to approach 2 weeks notice. I have several weeks of unused vacation still - will / can my firm force me to use my vacation time during my two week notice period? Will they give me any work, especially since I'm going to a competitor?

Has anyone ever done aggression training for their dog? Met with a trainer who basically wants us to either keep our dog crated or on a leash at all times and said no pets or play time for now. Our dog has been acting out ever since we brought home our newborn and also bit our groomer. Trainer has me terrified that the dog will hurt the baby but my heart is breaking that I can’t give any “love” to my dog right now. Any similar experiences or thoughts?

I joined TCS just 2.5months back and unfortunately my hr informed me that my bgc is negative. The reason is I didn't show them the past experience of 2 companies in which i was for a very short period time, and those 2 companies were MNC's. I have given them genuine reason that why i didn't mention it in my resume and also have given the experience letter of those 2 companies as a proof to TCS. Will they still ask me to resign?

About to get promoted at PwC from Associate to Senior Associate (mgmt consulting). I interviewed at Deloitte for a Consultant position, but they’re potentially giving me an offer for BA. I’d essentially be holding out on the promo until next promo cycle. Usually, I’d understand hiring at a level below for higher levels but I feel like doing a 3rd year as a junior might not be the best decision. Should I push HR for Consultant level? I haven’t gotten the official offer letter yet, just verbal.

Crushed my final two interviews today. I will hear back sometime next week for a verbal offer for a Tech Solutions Consultant on the xWS team. Leaning towards an L4 but maybe they give L5 if the interview feedback was as good as I thought it went. Any thoughts on how I should negotiate base and equity? Maybe ask for sign on too?
