Decided that I’m leaving audit today. Trying to understand the full range of opportunities in forensics. Will have my CPA and CFE. So far, I understand that there are client-serving firms like FTI and then the B4 will have forensics arms as well. What are some other forensic accounting roles? Pros and cons? Better than audit? Honestly just looking to learn anything.

Hi, I'm looking to connect with a Product Designer who can help mock up some rough concepts into wire frames for a side project I'm exploring. Ideal profile is someone who is familiar with social apps and ideally into politics. This is an especially great fit for a young designer looking to build their portfolio. I will be paying $$ for their time. Plz DM if interested or have leads.

Anyone ever date someone in their client city but later felt like they were just in for it for the free meals and hotel stays? 🙁 50-50 on what his intentions are and not sure what to do. Advice plz.

Overheard my client swearing and yelling and kicking his file drawer cabinet. Went over to see what all the raucous was about, and witnessed him trying to pry open one of the drawers (continued...)

Do you make sure to come to work before the client and leave after they leave?

Should I send a client a goodbye email on my last day? I was heavily involved in this project. Feel weird not saying something. Any advice?

8 o'clock meeting in the client site, caught an early flight and planned to get some sleep on the flight. The fucking baby next to me started crying his lungs out. FML.

Made my first substantial deck today with almost entirely my own content (thoughts, findings, etc) for a client session. I know it’s not a big deal but excited to present it tomorrow 😊

if the new project requires you to commit for X amount of years with the client how can they enforce this? i’m sure it’ll be harder to switch projects, etc. but if you decide to leave the firm what can they do?

Just got rolled off a project after 6 weeks of on-boarding and 0 work done. Oh life...

What is staff augmentation? Hear this as a buzz word indicating stay away from this project/firm

At client on a Sunday. 😔

Get on a strategy S&O project now, try and transfer in, and give up promotion to SC in DD next year? My friend is telling me to target SC in DD then transfer, but i have an opportunity now to be on..

Partners/Dirs, when you need something tomorrow morning and you know I'm on a project, pls tell me during the day, not 9:30pm!

Expected salary increase on promotion from Project Delivery Specialist to Project Delivery Manager?

Anyone hear any guidance on Federal client work yet? I don’t know who the “partial” govt shutdown applies to.... non-essential govt staff and contractors? Thanks. Sorry for the holiday question .

Exiting to Tech in a sales / consulting services role. Clearing $400K inclusive of RSUs. Really felt like I was not given the opportunities on high visibility accounts at my firm and somehow my client / sales / firm impacts were overlooked. Always felt like I was swimming upstream and my comp was basically flat over the last 3 years. So I bid adieu to consulting - for now.

Can you expense anything if you're on a local project?

On hold for a project that seems like it's never going to start. Torched my already not great utilization

Healthcare 🐠: Anyone here work with/work at Lumeris? Good/bad/ugly?

Why would anyone from the tier 2 firms (OW, ATK, S&) want to go to MBB? (Not rhetorical, I’d like to find out what the gaps are for these firms)

Considering leaving MBB to join a FMCG. Corporate consulting role. Would be leaving at Manager level with Mba. What sort of compensation should I be expecting?

Senior Actuarial Folks (Principal & Above) Is total comp higher at firms like Mercer/WTW/Aon or PWC/EY/Deloitte/KPMG? Milliman?

Any opening for PMO analyst?

So a coworker friend overheard our department head discussing the budget for our position. Safe to say we are both grossly underpaid—her a lot more than me (a man), but even the difference for me is quite large (10k). Any advice on how to proceed?

Anyone else get irrationally bothered by spastic typers? The kid in the cube next to me POUNDS on his keyboard with sudden flurries of frenzied typing and slams on the backspace and return keys.

Has anyone heard of people being negatively impacted if their team think they might be leaving? I’m interviewing elsewhere and haven’t told anyone at the firm, but I feel like my managers can feel me pulling away. I’m trying to stay focused on my team while I’m still here but I just don’t care about audit anymore.

What the top range SM salary in FDD HCOL?

Anyone interview with via? How is it

What are realistic exits for a post-MBA strategy consultant with 2 years of tier 2 CDD / growth strategy experience?

Thinking about quitting for an industry role. How much of a payrise should I ask for at the start of the negotiation with new employer? How large is negotiation figure vs. actual rise I am aiming for?

I've just been offered a job at a big 4. I've been sent an email for background verification with a link to internal job portal. I've been asked to fill out a form that includes past employers. TBC

job interview on a friday afternoon 4pm, should i do the follow up right after when i get back home or wait until monday morning?

How would you culturally fit the big 4 into MBB and which big 4 gets left out?

I have always dreamt of living abroad. A few years in Europe, and then APAC. Transfer plans fell through with covid, and I’m pretty sure they will be delayed due to Delta. Turning 25 this month and feel like that dream is getting farther away. I’ve always been ambitious, but as I’m getting older I’ve realized traveling and exploring other cultures is what truly makes me happy and that’s what I want to use my career in tech to fund. I know this is a first world problem, but has anyone done this?
