When I returned from FMLA/maternity leave I wish I’d been more vigilant to get on people’s radars!
Don’t expect everyone to be prepared for your arrival, try to reach out to your HR, manager, and/or staffing lead if possible in the 2-3 weeks before returning to confirm your date and ask about staffing. Also ask about if you can ramp-on or if you need any accommodations, time away for appointments, or upcoming time off.

be gentle with yourself and I hope you can have a smooth transition back after leave :)

Relatively new in Big4 M&A advisory doing mostly integration work with some pre deal DD mixed in. I recently heard L.E.K. Consulting places well in MM PE but don't know much about them otherwise. Was interested if anyone had insight into whether a jump to their M&A or PE groups would be possible. In terms of background, I have an undergrad business degree from a T20 school and graduated a T14 law school as well.
