Bro...why am I in consulting? Saw an article Milbank and other law firms raised their entry level salaries for associates... Ranging from $235,000 for juniors to $455,000 for seniors.

Thoughts on Chief of Staff roles? Are they an actual career or just a PM position?

Those who are job searching (either while employed or unemployed) — what’s working and what’s not? I’ve been really trying to network on LinkedIn, get referrals when possible, and hunt down hiring managers and recruiters. But boy, it’s a tough game. And exhausting. What’s working for you?

Do y’all wait to notify your current job until the new job’s background check is completed and you receive your official start date? Or do you go ahead and notify them and give your two weeks when you sign a written offer letter?

Just left Capital One after the bulk of my time in Corp Strat, former AP at MBB. Great money, terrible experience. I was a highly paid slide writer. They promised great roles in the business and a path up - completely false. There are few business roles available, and no Corp Strat hire since 2017 has made it past MVP in the lines of business. Tread with caution.
