What's the travel policy at Accenture? Can you use your own card to book? Can you choose which hotel brand you want to stay at? Is there per diem?

You book flights through portal. Don’t use your card

Hotels you’re supposed to also use portal, but I just use Marriott site. Pay with my own card - generally accepted.

Yes there’s per diem

You enter a WBS by default.

There’s an option to enter a card I think, but it’s exception based - not the default

Can choose hotel brand generally, supposed to use corporate card for hotels but thus isn't enforced, daily per diems based on city.

Yes, but it is dependent on the city

There's a mystery limit somewhere in the system on portal, and a separate mystery limit that will flag you when you seek reimbursement. If you get flagged all it takes is an "OK" email from an MD.

I also literally just started contributing to my 401K so I’m also late in the game for that too.

I see two crowds these days. One thinks housing market will crash. The other thinks housing market will soar.

The contrarian in me makes me think this is a decent indication that housing market will stagnate (or increase minimally) for a few years.

As a general rules, I feel like the majority cannot foresee a crash/surge coming. The prevalence of such expectations would hamper the pre-conditions necessary for such a dramatic change.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
