Any others thinking about leaving finance? I have been in the field for almost 16 years and I am burned out. I’ve been a manager, an assistant, financial rep and I don’t see myself managing again or having any other growth opportunities within the company without moving.

The thought has occurred to me a lot lately, but I’m just not sure what else to do or where else to go. Also worried that right now isn’t the best time to be switching unless I am serious about what else I’d want to get into. Do you know what you would do if you left finance?

Have all these positions been in the same company? Have you searched other companies out there that may offer better pay and opportunities for growth? Maybe consider being a financial planner/advisor?

Looking for tips from seniors. I'm at A1 level at a litigation firm, stepping out of the deer-in-headlights phase. With the Partners assigning work to me in teams of 2-3, there's potential for growth. But with the sheer amount and depth of work on each case it's challenging to take on a more "adult" role. I often find myself in a more assistive role, either by my choice or the Partners'.
How can I accelerate my progress? What are Partners' and Seniors' expectations from year one associates?

Hello Fishes, I have a Job offer from Cisco and Verizon(VDSI).

Cisco CTC - 16.2LPA , Fixed - 15.1LPA - Cisco TAC role.

Verizon data services llc - CTC 18LPA , Fixed - 16.1LPA

YOE - 6.5 Years
CCTC - 7.2 LPA
Tech - Networking and Security

Conflicted between both as I believe Cisco has a better brand value and great company to work for. But the offer from Verizon is competitive.

Is it a good idea to renegotiate with Cisco based on current offer from Verizon. Please share your thoughts.

Thoughts on meeting at Mr. Purple or The Flowershop bar? Yay/Nay's appreciated.
