I have always wanted to work for the big 4. Found the idea of working with different clients, travel and the learning experience to be exiting . Not sure if this is just in my head and the grass looks greener on the other side . I currently work in program mgmt at Apple and wanted to understand if anyone has made the switch from faang to consulting? Is the pay and lifestyle rewarding. Should I experience this life before I get older ?PwC EY Deloitte KPMG

Payback Clauses!! I received a sign-on bonus and was informed that if I left the company prior to 18 months I would have to pay back X% of my sign-on bonus. I recently accepted a new job and have flexibility as to when I put in my 2 week notice. If my 18 month anniversary date is on December 8th, can I put in my two week notice before this date with the understanding that my last day would fall after this date, or would it be safest to put in my 2 week notice after my 18 month anniversary date?

Curious the timing for bonus payouts for you guys. My company notifies us of the $ amount and pays them out in mid-March. Is this standard?

Is it weird to get emotional before leaving your 1st job? Had a really great relationships with all the folks in my team and just broke the news that i'm leving. Got teary eyes and stuff. Is it normal? Or am i just weak

After 5-6 years in banking/consulting/PE, how much savings do you have tucked away? Can’t tell if I’m saving enough or being a total stingy bastard. (No mega 10k+ purchases, but nearly 100k of student debt almost paid off)

Any IBD or general advice on moving from associate to VP from a personality point of view? Am quite outgoing and always tried to be a “culture-carrier” but now I have to garner respect from the juniors and they look at me like I’m going to ruin their lives. Need to find the line between being taken seriously and remaining approachable.
