😬 is this a new office perhaps? Have you ever come in this early?

You are getting laid off. They can let you in at the front desk. They automatically turn off your badge. If you can get into a different floor, maybe it's just that floor. Clear anything personal off the laptop, check vacation days. This just happened to me.

?? You get 24 hour access to any pwc office with your badge...

I’ve always had 24 hour access... started in audit, wasn’t unusual to be slaving away at 3am and head outside for a breather. Couldn’t sleep (unrelated to work) so tried getting in at at 430am.

So you got into the building but not the part of the building we lease? If you were being let go they should have just killed your badge’s access to both.

Yeah elevator and building access works but not PwC access. Probably just a badge error? Hoping

Probably. Can’t the guard downstairs let you in? Usually they have a contingency procedure for this. My building does at least

Depends on the office. If your badge was created in a diff office and it isn’t one of the offices on the 24/7 list then you may not be able to get access. Also, got an email last week that a particular office badges were going to be down. Then they got them all deactivated again in a few days. Lots of things could be going on. Keep us updated!

Op are you OK?

🍿

Congrats!

Is IB worth the sacrifice of WLB? Obvious pay is really good but are the prestige and pay worth it if you’re planning on only doing it for a couple years?

Currently working at an IRA with great WLB. Honestly I love my job, the firm, and people I work with.

Also doing MBA part time at a T15 school. Thinking about switching to IB but I’ve done my research and I think I would burn out of IB in two years but I might be ok with that for the opportunities after.
