Bain & Company Hi all, I am interested in making the move to the Middle East, however starting from august/September. What do you think are the prospects for the future in the region? Do you envisage a hiring freeze or are companies still going strong? Thanks!McKinsey & Company Boston Consulting Group Kearney Bain & Company
Hi all,
I joined KPMG around 3 months ago but I am not getting work here. Although, I qualified some project's interview, yet due to some internal reason, they considered someone else, and I again came on bench.
I am unable to figure out what can be done now.
Should I start searching work outside.
(I hardly see any job openings these days)
(sap domain)
How's the resource management here?
(do they lagOff?)
Any inputs will be helpful.
Thanks!
Honestly hits a little too close to home

Unironically, you should watch “The Room Next Door.” I saw it at NYFF.
It talks about living in the face of death but also with the knowledge of our imminent demise (including things like climate change).
I struggle with the same thing you and other commenters grapple with. And this film by no means changed it for me. But it was a poignant conversation about finding joy or purpose in bleak times.
I think a lot of people feel this way.
How many of us? All of us, at least at various points.
we are illusionists by trade and the facade is part of the job.
Naw. I’m pretty good.
Every day.
I feel like this is true for literally all of us, or at least most of us. We’re all in it together so I just try to make the best of it
So much chaos and backwards processes. On a nearly daily basis. 😵💫
Once you’ve lived through some horrific personal tragedy you realize this is just what life is. And strangely you eventually come to appreciate the mundane and the veneer. Why do you think old people talk about the weather all the time?
“Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”
Macbeth /
Shakespeare
the only times I thought I had things under control were quickly followed by being let go. So now I don’t allow myself the luxury thinking I’ve “got it together”.
It's normal and it's called compartmentalizing. A lot of people feel this way, and some are better at minimizing it than others. It sucks. I hate it. I don't know what we do about it.
“The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind.”
Henry David Thoreau
