Thanks for the insight P2. Will try for EY TAS instead

Go to EY OTS instead in Atlanta. Partner is better and team are cooler.

I wish I would’ve chose EY OTS instead as well. Culture very weird in PWC DDV Atlanta.

Depends on the vertical and location. SF, for example, is aligned to TMT and is mostly local clients.

My hours as an associate were never terrible. But people say DDV works way more. Maybe they do at SA and higher.

In Bay Area, about 40-50 people. Close knit. Cool people.

Can attest to Bay Area team being very close knit

IT M&A is growing. They just got a new set of partners. Work in M&A is always going to be crazy. I personally like it because the team is small and there are good growth opportunities.

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!

I started in my first SDR position in a small SaaS start up few months ago. I am the only SDR and their first ever.
The base salary is ok but I haven’t received any commission structure up to this day.
I book an average of 3-5 demos per week. People always show up, but the thing that worries me is that I do not have a way to track how many meetings I book in our CRM,and to be honest I feel like I didn’t get the best training overall. Should I start looking somewhere else? Thoughts?

Thanks
