Bain & Company Worked in Private Equity audits in EY Service delivery in India for 3+ years, high performer who became senior and left to finish my ACCA (almost qualified and waiting for my last paper's results.)

I'd still want to be in Advisory/Consulting in Financial Services (AAS/mgt consulting). What are my chances of getting into something like Strategy& or somthing like Bain & Company eventually, also is Big4 hiring for Financial services advisory/consulting right now? Thanks!

What can I do to make this happen? I have friends and connections at Bain and Kearney and the other firms as well, but not sure if it’s feasible now.

Hello! Looking at an opportunity with established startup in UK that's just been acquired by a large co.

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.
