Anyone have a recommendation on how to earn some quick and easy college accounting credits? I’ve passed the CPA exam but I’m 6 accounting credits short for licensure. Looking for path of least resistance here. Located in California.

I am in a tech IC position. One of friends switched to FAANG by converting the profile to consultant profile. The friend who might have less tech knowledge than me is now in FAANG and earning more. If the end goal would be that the friend might one day be a product manager and me an engineering manager taking instructions from the same friend, isn't consultant profile an easier path to growth. I had been practising DSA for years and the competition is only ever growing.

Was recently offered a job in Hawaii that would be a much larger role than I currently have (deputy chief architect). The downside is the cost of living is nearly double my current location and I would only be getting a 40% pay increase. Do you think it’s worth giving up quality of life/spending value decrease to accept the larger career and possibly expedite my career progression?

What are the Heirarchy levels(designations) in persistent.

MSFT or AWS? As Tech Pre Sales and why?

Hi, I recently moved to Canada for the onsite opportunity of my project but I am not at all happy with the salary paid to me because of high cost of living in Canada and I am currently having a closed work permit.
Is there anyway I can change job in this situation? If not, when can I do that?

Thanks.

After you are stealth laid off, other than job search, what do you do? I assume they won’t give you work and even if they do, you can politely decline? How do you feel about you are not progressing anymore and seeing other people progressing in their career? I have no intention to make partner, but still feel a bit stuck not doing that much.

Raise your hand if you’d like to quit your PA gig now and do something different with your career.

My brother has 8 YOE post his Masters with a US bank in their rates trading division as a software developer- managing, supporting and developing software for pricing trade executions, risk management and reporting requirements for the trading desk.
