This dress code provides great insight into the culture/personality of BC (and why I would never want to work there), particularly this part:
> If you have been working all night and have an early morning meeting, you can use an anti-inflammatory hemorrhoid cream (e.g. Preparation H) to quickly shrink those unsightly puffy bags under your eyes.
- jjeaff 9y agoThey must be joking... right?
- myhf 9y agoIt's unusual to use topical anti-inflammatories in the US, but in other countries they are common and available with non-hemorrhoid branding.
- theossuary 9y agoSometimes that's just consulting. Your goal is always to make your company look good to the client. You already flew out and forfeited your week to be on site for those sweet sweet billable hours. You have to be done by Friday because that's when you go home, so you get out of the client's office at 6-7 (always after your boss leaves), and you have the choice to sit in your hotel room bored or keep going. You finish working at 3am, but have to be in before your boss looking fresh, so you iron everything, shower/shave, and do it all again. And if you work on site at a bank on the east coast, you better have a nice suit. Otherwise nowadays you're usually fine with slacks and a button down at most places. Honestly it can be a lot of fun, in small doses (do that every week for months and you realize why not everyone is a consultant though)
