Why does everyone make fun of Deloitte? Would you work there?

If you’ve been employed at a company for a few years and don’t like it, would you just stick it out or look for another job?

With a potential recession, I don’t know if pursuing a new role would help.

The IOC has blood on their hands. Failing to ban Russia when it came to light that the state-sponsored doping is active and operating on children has catalyzed the invasion of Ukraine. Putin has used the performance of Russia as his most powerful tool for public approval.

Both instances also gave Putin significant spikes in approval which he took into Georgia Ukraine.
