Any thoughts on BNP M&A in nyc
Bain & Company Contemplating a move from Accenture Strategy to Strategy&, or Monitor Deloitte. Part of my consideration is the assumption that WLB is likely to be better than at McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, or Bain & Company. Could any of you fellow European fishies shed some light on the validity of this assumption? Sharing experiences would be highly appreciated.

Shorts, no. Open toed shoes depend on the office. I see them a lot in my office, but personally, I don’t like to show my toes at work. You can definitely wear lighter weight clothes without wearing shorts. Linen is a good option. There are also a lot of short sleeve shirt options out there for men and women that can be worn in the summer. I actually freeze in my office when my office door is open, which is all the time if I’m not on a call, so I’ll have on a skirt and short sleeve top and a blanket on even in the summer.
We don't have a dress code in my office as far as I'm aware, but we do occasionally have clients stop by. The folks in the shop dress however they need to, for safety and also because the shop doesn't have A/C. The front office is air conditioned and usually a bit too cold for me, but nonetheless I wouldn't wear logo t-shirts or shorts or open toed shoes to work just in order to maintain a professional appearance to my coworkers. Personally I think you feel how you look, and I'm not going to show up to work as if I were bumming around in my living room. I think it's a gesture of respect. If it gets really hot in your office, that sounds like a separate problem.
Go with the golf style clothing - often will be much cooler. Just remember it was not long ago that professional dress included wool suits in the summer!
I remember at EY when men were required to wear long sleeve white shirts year round
No. Socks and shoes are required.
One summer my former employer decided to allow shorts because someone in my dept requested it. We already wore jeans and company sweatshirts many days so I shouldn’t have been surprised but I still was.
Our office doesn’t care anymore. We almost never have clients in the office and 75% of our workforce is remote or hybrid. If you do have a client meeting then you obviously need to dress appropriately but otherwise people wear what they want. You might get a little bit of side eye if you come in wearing a hoodie but plenty of open toed shoes and I’ve seen guys come in wearing shorts.
I have worked in business causal and casual wear what ever you want offices bigger companies want you to wear traditional work clothes but to be honest if you want people to take you seriously you need to dress in business casual bring a change of clothes if you need to for after work
I can wear pyjamas
But can you spell pajamas?
