I also worked at FTI in restructuring. Outstanding firm in my experience, but remember, restructuring is restructuring and there is no WLB in those groups whether it be FTI, Alix, BRG, or A&M.

I heard that they have much better WLB than LEK.

I interviewed there a few years ago. Didn’t think much of it. Went to AP instead. Which I also didn’t think much of.

You will get paid bonuses in stock which can be good and bad depending on performance. Your quality of life will go out the window to suffice shareholder value.

A traditional LLP model is so much better because your reduce stakeholders down to the partners and what they want to give to to satisfy staff quality of life.

Heard their culture was super fragmented due to legacy acquisitions.

Never have encountered them.

I tried asking this in my own bowl with no responses, so seeing if other consultants have run into this situation. I’m on parental leave, I got an offer for another firm, great opportunity and pay. How does one go about a resignation mid-leave when you would start the new job before the leave ends? Two weeks notice or just say I am not returning effective the day of the new job? Any things to consider besides potentially repaying the employer healthcare premium?

Anyone with psychologist partners or friends? Trying to help my wife figure out next steps in her career. Currently is a clinical psychologist seeing about 20 ppl/week for 120-130 dollars a person (she currently takes insurance). IMO this limits her overall earning potential. Trying to figure out if she could: drop insurance and charge more, scale out and build her own practice, and/or work more (could maybe see 26-28 ppl/week). Curious if anyone can share thoughts or brain power!
