Fastest way is to jump. It's why you rarely see someone in this industry stay at a company longer than 2 years

Hey ladies, I’m in some serious need for some job search advice. My search has some very challenging circumstances which I’d love some support and feedback on. I can’t share any details here. Would any of of you be willing to connect with me privately in either a chat or (possibly down the road) video chat? I’d love to ideally find a mentor or two.

Got a Bb offer and team is open to me joining either as a senior analyst or junior associate. With 2 yrs of ft exp and lengthy internships before that, I feel like I'm ready for the associate role. However, team head wanted to make sure that I don't underestimate the step-up it'll require on my end and that it'll be very intense. Any thoughts? Many thanks in advance!
I feel like I'd ramp up and it'll be stressful either way.

I heard that internal candidates have much lower salary ranges for promotions / transferring teams. So much so that some people will leave the company a year just to come back to a more competitive offer.

I am in the running for a 2 band level promotion - if / when it gets to salary discussions, should I still try to negotiate? What are peoples thoughts? I would be going from an entry level role for 1 year to a senior role, but I still want a fair compensation compared to other hires.

Parents who have or have had a baby. How was the first year or two for you? Was it awesome, was it terrible, did it change your relationship with your partner? Did you regret it, did you want out? I've heard that having a baby can really change things between you and your partner and that a lot of marriages fall apart at that point. Just interested in stories and feedback.

Also curious if one partner kind of pressured the other into having a child/was driving force in wanting the baby.
