He was in the hunt to be GMP in the 2024 elections. Didnt make it and tbh our internal AI implementation (Lilli) that he was leading has fallen flat. Wasnt really an AI guy but like most leaders, became one in the 2022-2023 hype cycle. Not surprising he is out but cool guy.

Worked with him extensively. Very nice guy, no airs or graces (as some McK partners have), always ready to help - regardless whether there was a project in play or not. Best of luck to him.

I had to rescind my acceptance to an offer at EY back in April because I had a medical issue present for a surgery and I didn’t want to complicate things with time off and changes in insurance and such since it was a scary process in and of itself. I’m healing faster than expected now though, and EY said to reach out if things change but that’s probably standard language. Is it likely that I could get them to re-send an offer? I still see postings for the role online.

Have an acquaintance who is a single mom; she purchased a used car 3 mos ago.

Acquaintance was switching insurance policies and flubbed the coverage dates and there were a few days where the vehicle was uninsured. No GAP insurance. I'm not seeing many options for her besides to continue pmts, fixing just enough to drive or voluntary repo. Thoughts?

Currently working as an engineer in site design/real estate development in Atlanta. I'm wanting to transition to the developer side in hopes of becoming a developer myself. With everything that's going on in the market right now, it looks like it might be sort of tough. Not sure where to start either. I was thinking of going commercial and becoming an asset management analyst. If anyone has any tips I'm all ears. Any information is greatly appreciated!

Happy Thursday 🐠

Received an offer as Engagement Director from Salesforce (CSG, pre sales, L9). Great benefits package, 40% increase in total comp and better WLB.

I do love the people in my practice and current client, but career trajectory has stalled after taking parental leave earlier this year and (yet another) change in leadership.

Realistically, making to Director is 2-3 years away and will require sacrificing time with my family that I am not prepared to give up.

Should I stay or should I go?
