What’s the general opinion of West Monroe? A lot of students I know are working there or getting internships with them.

Depends what you're looking for. WLB and culture probably can't find much better. Don't think there's a single person or team I haven't enjoyed working with, and working hours are great. Compensation is neutral, getting better but not quite competitive with bigger firms yet. Those pros are at the expense of prestige and exit opps. Big 4 is a possible lateral but you'll find very few MBB or top strategy firm exits, let alone top tech or PE. You might get some anecdotal responses but they're outside the norm.

EC, would it be closing a door by trying to get an internship with them? Would it be possible to go towards MBB after an internship with them with minimal connections? Is it really that hard to get into FAANG from WM?

I’m looking for general management consulting. I’m a business and finance major but would like to be able to go anywhere and not be limited by a previous employer. Previous internships are in PE

I usually don’t celebrate my birthday, but I’m turning 40😅 and feel like I need to do something by inviting people I know. I think it will be a small group, maybe 10 at most.

So I’m leaning towards a happy hour on Friday, maybe get some appetizers for the group and then everyone pays for their drinks. Do you girls think it is a good option for the group? What’s the “etiquette” for this sort of celebration?

Thoughts on Networking…

Hi All! Someone recommended connecting with people via LinkedIn as a means to improve job searching. I understand the push for this, and know that it is effective, but I still have some reservations.

Specifically: (1) prior conversations with professionals who explicitly stating they felt like they were being used when people reached out on LinkedIn and (2) reluctance to share intimate details about current/past employment that’s publicly accessible.

Thoughts/Tips?

Hello Attorneys:
I’ve been feeling like all of the work they give us to do in law school and all of the readings still don’t help us to do well on quizzes and essays. I’m curious and wonder did you feel that way in law school? Was it a survive on your own with any and all help you could on the side or did it feel like everything being taught and being read and being practiced was sufficient to pass and do well in all courses? Thanks!!
