Used to work at KPMG and it’s a similar wlb I imagine, 9-5. If you can get on a public sector project then it is *chef’s kiss*. Also considering exit back to Big 4 to have my life back

Im an analyst not a consultant. As an analyst you will be fine but the consultants are in the office all the time

Yeah I’m pretty happy with it. Most people I know are generally 9-5.

Interesting, I am an analyst and it seems they work less hours than the BCG consultants

Please help! I’m a CRC who manages Investigator- led clinical research projects and I want to transition to a PM role in industry (I would slightly prefer not a PM role in clinical trials since I don’t have clinical trial experience.) I’ve applied to PM roles at many biotech companies (e.g. Charles River, ICON, Paraxel) but only got 1 interview which didn’t work out. Which companies should I look to for an entry level PM role? Any good startups to consider? Anyone have any insight or advice?

If you're being told "take your full lunch" (because by law you need to be given a certain amount of lunch depending on how many hours you work) but then you're told, if work's not done you need to stay until it is, and now people don't want to take their full lunches because it means they'll have to stay after work longer, is that coercion a violation of any federal labor laws?

I just started with a company as an HR Generalist. Within the 3 weeks of being there, my boss’s boss left, and today I found out my boss gave notice. HR is not valued at the company and it’s disheartening to know I was hired into a mess. I am now actively looking but how do I explain to other employers why I am actively looking and what do I put on my resume? I have never had to deal with this before.

Anyone witness slackers who got into companies you have no idea how? Had a coworker who does jack chit at work besides chatting on Facebook yet lands at a faang company? I guess if he brings the same work ethic he will be spit out for sure. Or maybe he just had no interest in doing project work.

I have received an offer from PA Consulting , which I think will speed up my development by around 2 years, compared to staying where I am.

I have only been at my current company for 6 months, however I would like to take the offer, how do I approach this?
