LEK needs to understand they are also on a trial period too. Unless there is a sign-on/retention bonus they need to prove their value to staff everyday.

It's a seller's market. Recognize it or I'll go to KPMG!

Lol there’s usually a signing bonus. Not sure if it applies to this weird pilot program

What does this mean?

Wasn’t it 12 months? 😂

You work for free for 6 months and then they decide if they’ll pay you?

Do you at least keep their credit card on file so you can begin charging them when the trial expires?

Not to mention most firms invest too much in a new hire to fire them 6 months in

I have an asset purchase of a retail store transaction. Seller is keeping the second location. Seller is licensing the name from the buyer. The licensing agreement is supposed to contain provisions so that the seller cannot offer promotions or discounts that the buyer does not also offer (i.e., seller cannot undercut buyer's pricing). I know very little about antitrust. Can anyone give me some suggestions how to enforceably draft this agreement, or is this arrangement impossible?

Hey Fishes, happy Sunday!

My sister had received an offer letter for the "Functional Consulting - Analyst" role on 7th September, 2021. Been over a year now but have not heard back anything.

Although when we were able to get in touch with an HR, we were assured that we would be receiving a call letter after a month/week but that was 4-6 months back... No correspondence since then.

Anyone in a similar situation? Is there a clear way to know when the call letter would be released?

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
