Antecdotal, but expert path WLB has been worse from what I've seen. From people I've chatted with on here it seems to depend on industry, but this was the main reason I left the firm

FWIW I was on the advanced analytics side

Curious about this too

From EM to expert? What’s your from to?

Yes! EM to expert

Why do you want to do this?

Not sure the Expert WLB is that much better? Either you are staffed as an EM and will play the EM role (same) or you are an expert and need to get plugged in / pull from different places to sell yourself

Are companies looking to hire more minorities and people who identify as LGBTQ+? I saw a post about a job listing for a Big 4 and it said it had a strong preference for people who identify as LGBTQ+ or a minority racial group. Does this mean they have a higher chance of getting the job? Not trying to start any political debates, I’m just generally curious.
