Why doesn't travel time count toward utilization. I wouldn't be going to the client site if I wasn't working for the client. Also is the minimum work hrs during non-busy season 45hrs?

At what point does the value of a degree fall off? I'm in my early 30s, and have five years of experience, and work on a very theoretically interesting project. I believe I'm on track to promotion in the next year. So, I could put in a year of full time school to check the box off, but I'd be sacrificing hobbies and social life (not to mention cost). Is this FOMO or is there real opportunity here?

Any utilization review nurses working at an insurance company able to share if your company requires work on weekend/holidays? If so, what work do you do on weekend/holidays snd do you work s full day on those days?

Should I Go Back and Reneg? Recently I was offered a role as a Project Implementation Manager (In Retirement Services) .The salary range for Colorado residents was 65-89K. I’m located in NY so the recruiter said he would try to get me more. Ultimately he came back at 90K which is a bit inline with that I was seeing on Glassdoor but approx looks like I may leave 10-12K on the table. I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice

Hello fellow fishes,

Citi folks - new at citi and just found out that they do not provide laptops 🤯. Now I’m concerned with how the technology is otherwise? How is WLB? Do they reimburse if you purchase a laptop to use? Any insights will be greatly appreciated. TIA

Lowkey confused, I joined the firm in July and both my standard & adjusted utilization are at 50%. Is this good?

Some great client feedback notes we received today on photo choices:
Boy with toy shark: “Can you photoshop in a less scary toy?”
Dog in bath tub: “Find a more average dog (golden retriever?)” 🤦🏻‍♀️

After two years of this I don't care about "better exit ops". I'll take WLB and a decent salary for my freedom back. After 10/15 I'm applying to every industry tax accountant/analysts job I see

I got a promotion a year and 3 months ago, and got a pay raise 5 months ago. Could I still ask for a promotion to SAE if I have been supporting a team more as one? Promotions are hard to stab with.

Currently work at Moody’s as a credit analyst trying to figure out what are good exit ops, if anyone has any advice please let me know, feeling pretty stuck right now

Hi All,
Just want your suggestion on this to help me decide.
I've been working in QA team for big data project and recently I've got offers from Startup and service based MNC as data engineer for the role of Data Engineer.
I've not worked on the actual development of ETL batches till now but I want to learn and grow gradually.

What kind of organisation would be best for me considering my mental health as well because I take too much stress ?

Thanks 🙏

Will have $100k by the end of this year and want to start investing in stocks. I am willing to take medium to high risk. What stocks/etfs to buy?

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.

Got an offer fr vmware worried about job security should I join or not as I have heard frequent layoffs happen there specially in india VMwware ,kindly suggest what to do !

Hey fishies! Been a GVP consultant for 3.5 years now, hard work, tough “in trouble” clients, and just haven’t had the chance to work with a team long term! Been in the industry a while, current Head of DSPV and looking to jump back into FT work. Non-MD so it’s hard to find companies that will hire me even though I teach in grad school and headed for my PhD. Any thoughts? Openings?

What do you do with a class that exhibits poor behavior with anything other than quick paced, teacher led instruction? I want to dig into inquiry but they misbehave if I don’t catch them back quickly

Hi everyone. I am super interested in early promotion to manager. I am a staff 1. I know this is early, but would love to hear your recommendations on how to get on track for early promotion someday?

Think I forgot to test an automated control...how screwed am I ?

If you asked to be considered for early promotion and didn’t get it (despite being highly rated, exceeding billable goal, etc) would you look elsewhere? Is it right to be angry about it? I don’t want to spin myself up unnecessarily if it’s unjustified

FINALLY found my motivation after 11 days of busy season... at 2am... when I have to be to work at 8am the next day.

Does anyone know why managers call themselves “Executives”? In my mind, I only consider Senior Managers and up an Executive. Just curious if anyone else thinks it’s a little bit of a stretch.
