I have a Deloitte PDM offer. I’ve read about the positives/negatives and I’m so torn. When my recruiter says I’ll have “144 hours” of PTO (18 days), will I definitely still run into the utilization trap of not being able to take it? Are all projects 40-42 hr weekly caps? Third question: I’m new in the DC area, are PDMs invited to firm socials? Trying to make friends! Thanks in advance

If I resign in December and get paid my 2 weeks of unused vacation days will I also get paid for unused sick days?

What holiday party did you get?
Anyone living close to an office, got a holiday party with food and drinks, and the venue started open for them until around midnight. Our remote workers got a one hour party w a DJ and trivia that let you win gift cards. Yeah it was nice to win a gift card but I found it lame in comparison to hanging out with my team in real life.

Does Oracle have holiday shutdown?

At a tech company with less than 50 people and $6 M Revenue.

Since we returned to office in October, is it appropriate to give holiday gifts to team members?

Moving from T2 to McKinsey. How do vacation requests work? I have family and friends getting married this fall in weddings delayed because of covid, but I’ll just have started so wanted to get a sense of how realistic taking vacation this fall would be and how to approach taking it (e.g. mention to HR, staffing). TIA!

Physically ill just being back home and knowing I have work travel tomorrow. So much has been going on in my life and I thought 1 week of vacation would help but I feel worse. Don't know what to do

Hi everyone. I was given a verbal offer after some negotiation and I’m comfortable with the salary. There was no real discussion about anything other than salary. When the written offer arrives, have you had any success negotiating PTO, health insurance, retirement ect.? Thanks!

I really need to know. Does anyone genuinely care about their jobs anymore? Money aside.

For those that built higher end homes, what kind of appliance budget did you have?

I need everyone’s help😭 Money aside, how did you finalize which idea to pursue? I’m struggling to narrow it down from 4. Focusing is not an issue for me once I’m locked in, but I’m struggling to get there because I haven’t finalized which idea to focus on. Open to any recommendations please (books, personal stories, etc).

Does having AWS Certification help H1B case?

Does anyone know how litigation finance works on the plaintiff side? If someone wanted to bring a lawsuit against their former employer would a general contingency arrangement with a plaintiff’s firm make sense? Or would one need to find funding and then contact a plaintiff’s firm to actually handle the case? I’m a transactional lawyer, so this is out of my wheelhouse.

Anyone else scroll through LinkedIn and constantly feel behind in their career? Everyone I know is exiting from MBB to VC/PE and I’m still making peanuts at Big 4. How do you deal with knowing you’re mediocre/less sharp?

Sometimes I wonder how employees at my client site get anything done. I'm in a cubicle farm and I just hear so many social conversations about diets, relationship troubles, hobbies, etc. Get to work!

So annoyed because upgrade to a bulkhead aisle seat in first class on my flight home but ALL I want is to sleep in my perfect exit row window seat I had so carefully selected... #consultingproblems

Could anyone working at MBB be able to give me a referral please? Thank You.

I know this career takes a lot out of folks, but what are some things you’re grateful for?

I’ve been having a hard time finding energy to interview but I’m REALLY grateful that recruiters from great companies reach out on LinkedIn just based on my skills/current company. Takes a big weight off.

Was learning some AI/ML and realized how I gave completely false and BS perspective on the same topic to one of the T2 partners and passed the interview with great feedback. Confidence is all that matters folks!

TIL that you can swipe up/down on your gmail initials icon to switch between different accounts. Used to think you had to click and select the accounts.🤯

I am thinking about Okta (I do some SAML work), Domo, ITIL, Six Sigma, Certified Scrum Product Owner, Six Sigma, anything else? I have AWS Cloud Practitioner already. I am hoping to pivot to Product Management or Data Science.
