A headhunter reached out to me about an amazing-sounding opportunity. My current firm is pretty good, but this could be a big jump. Do I owe it to my team to stay loyal?

I promise you they do not owe you loyalty. Work is a transaction, don’t get all sentimental with loyalty. Companies will always do what’s best for their interest, you’re responsible for what’s best for you! Take the leap and go!

I’m in the exact same situation. Headhunter is offering double what I make now. Going to talk to my family and friends to weigh options. I also feel a sense of loyalty to my firm since they were my only offer out of school and they’ve been good to me so far. In the grand scheme of things, picking between two great offers is more of a blessing than a curse so stay positive!

Lmao is this a real question

Lol no. You’ll learn this lesson at some point, teams / partners / consultancies owe you no loyalty and you don’t owe any in return.

I’m quite young and I’ve just left my previous firm for double at a way better firm - take the jump now or you’ll never leave. Remember, you’re literally replaceable and your team will always find another you ! Keep good relationships / rapport with them as it’ll potentially come handy in the future but for now, make the move before you get sucked into shitty company culture of being there ur whole life with bad pay 😭 they will even agree that moving is a good thing being young and slowly people will start following you and wanting to leave too. PM me if you want to talk about this more :)

Started going to therapy early 2020 and had a few sessions where I really felt like I made a breakthrough and left feeling like I was on cloud 9 after every session. I stopped going (it was the through school and I graduated/covid happened) but recently started again with a new therapist. I am not feeling that “breakthrough” feeling after any of our sessions and see it as more of a burden than helpful - is this a sign that maybe this therapist isn’t for me?

Considering pivoting into a local MM IB. As my title suggests, my technical skills aren’t as honed as one who has focused on the analysis route. How much of being an Analyst at a smaller IB is technical skill heavy coming into the role? I hold my 7, 66, 24, and am not worried about getting the 79. Any input for how realistic this is? When looking at one particular firm’s career page it doesn’t mention technical skills or modeling once, which led me to believe it may be less important than soft.
