Been trying to break into climate tech startups (I originally wanted to be in IB but we know how that goes) for quite some time... I Received an offer at BofA as a senior auditor, which is even further from my career goals, but it pays about double what I make now. Should I take it or keep applying to jobs? Having 1-2 years of BofA on the resume would help me for the next job and I could really use the salary bump, but I’ll miss being fully remote and audit sounds miserable

Feel free to dM me.

What kind of role do you want in climate startups? If audit is essentially compliance, then make sure you have a plan to pivot. Banking compliance can be difficult to pivot from unless you want to get into sustainability from a regulatory perspective. Many senior compliance people end up having legal backgrounds.

Oh sorry, I think I misinterpreted when you said “break into the company early”.

What is IB?

Investment banking

Hi Everyone,
I have a query. Not sure if this is the right forum for it, but let me just ask it here.
I have completed my B.Tech. on 2020 and got a job in an MNC with a 3.8LPA, but due to COVID, the onboarding was delayed to Feb 2021. During this time, I had enrolled myself for a distance M.Tech. degree.
I recently joined a new company with a 10.1LPA a month back.
Just two weeks back, my M.Tech. degree is completed.
Should I have some increment in my new company as to my M.Tech. completion?

If anyone knows of any open roles and would be happy to do a referral etc then please also let me know.

Thanks 😊

Hi all- My SO is currently at a Big4 & was initially preparing for S&O roles at GCP but given the high number of ex MBB consultants hired, they believe its just more competition to get the offer & to eventually get promoted over time.

Instead, they have decided to pursue program manager or cloud consultant roles, which they feel might have a lower barrier to entry from an assessment standpoint. Not sure if the bowl agrees but would like to get your thoughts, thanks!
