I've been on a digital strategy project before and they're highly focused on road mapping the technology vision as well as doing assessments on projects the client should undertake. A lot of interfacing with tech executives and more focused on 'selling' implementation work.

And you're in Deloitte Digital? Unless you can engineer a switch into S&O, your best bet is going to be to switch into the digital strategy group.

True. You're really in the wrong service area.

Might be easier to move into DD digital strategy, then lateral into S&O from there. Can't see how else you'd do it from where you are. Which city are you in?

like

City would be a giveaway but it's a fairly large city with a strong S&O presence at the home office

like

Its been difficult to network in person with S&O folks and so far my cold emails have not been successful in even getting a response back (which is understandable as I don't have actual finance experience).

Are you in S&O?

A long post: seeking some perspective. My husband of 2 years that I’ve been in a relationship with for more than 8 years just woke up one day and told me that he’s unhappy in our relationship. I’m devastated because he’s never expressed anything like this in the 8 years. He’s been super supportive and loving, even when we were in a long distance relationship. He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>
