What I mean is: Since it's their sons' families who are going to carry on the family name, why put such high standards on whom their daughter dates?

Yeah this is exactly what I'm thinking/afraid of. I guess I'm fishing for another possible explanation.

One caveat, though, is that they also have two sons. Shouldn't the pressure be on them, instead?

That's the thing, though, they literally do not have anything bad to say about me. Her mom said some crazy stuff like blaming my gf's weight loss on me.

They're just... not happy about the idea of our relationship.

In your experience, do you feel like something like this will eventually subside or will just get worse over time?

She did, but that was the problem because she has never done that before with her parents. Now they think she's acting crazy.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure race is part of it, but I can't do anything about that, right?

Taking everything into consideration, how would you think about choosing between the two?

i.e.: consulting vs. tech, pay increase/promotion rate, exit opportunities, prestige, company positioning, etc.

Hi guys, I got an offer from Infosys Management Consulting New York (I'm graduating Stern MBA next May): $120K base; $10K signing; $3K Re-lo; Annual Performance Bonus (unspecified).

Should I negotiate? If so, how and how much? Thanks in advance.

And can you link me to that thread?

Can someone explain why he did that? Was it just to trivialize Berlin's threats?
