Want to boomerang to my old company. Is there an appropriate amount of time to wait? For context, it has been 3 months

If you’re sure you want to go back, and your firm is boomerang friendly, no reason to wait. At Deloitte I’ve seen boomerangs in 2-3 weeks.

That’s pretty short amount of time, are you sure you don’t want to give it some more time? You left for a reason in the first place and may not have gotten the full experience yet at your new firm.

Literally doing this right now at 3 months. Definitely really early imo - I think a year is a good time to experience the new firm, but I’m very confident about where I want my career and that’s with my last practice (niche speciality). Just make sure you’re absolutely sure that you want to go back, remind yourself why you left in the first place, and ask if you’ve exhausted all options at the new place. While my last firm is open arms in taking me back (actually at a higher level), I know I’m risking burned bridges with my new firm. Good luck!

I believe you’re not eligible for a salary bump if you go back in under a year

No. Boomerang.

Thank you everyone!

consultant keeps making spelling mistakes on every document, including when they just need to copy and paste text directly from email instructions. when they send me work they now say “let me know if you find any spelling errors” - and while i always check work because it’s a team effort, i feel like these careless mistakes could be avoided. english isn’t their first language (nor mine), is it insensitive to ask them to double check their work? or is there any other way to handle this?
