Currently 3 years in FDD and wanting to explore other options. I see some cool positions like strategic finance at Airbnb and Hilton but im getting at least 25k even after im only 4 years out of school.

Would this difference keep expanding the more I get experienced and harder to get out of FDD? I like the work in FDD and the pay, but not sure if I can handle the manager/director level workload. I’m only willing to take a pay cut if it’s strictly 9-5 job so I’m very unclear how to go about thi

Been with an Asphalt and Concrete contractor in suburban Chicagoland for a little over 2 years now, and am going into a compensation discussion tomorrow after informing my boss I no longer wish to be on a draw.

Current comp plan is as follows:
Salary- ~48k w/ draw up to about 80k, full OTE with commissions should be ~170000, this is all increased by kickers every 250k in sales that increase commission/draw

My questions is if the draw is removed, how much salary should I be asking for?

Hello folks,
I have 3.3 years of experience in automation testing. In my current company work culture is very toxic and I'm looking for new opportunity from last 15 days but I'm not getting any call because of 3 months notice period.

Looking for recommendations on financial modeling courses (paid) that I can take for 3 statements/operating model, valuations, M&A, & LBO. Have been getting interviews with banks (3 in 2 months) but I come up short with the modeling experience (and weak on the technicals too). I’m thinking doing a modeling course will help with the no modeling experience + update my technicals? Thanks.

Recent new hire here.. is there a way to see your specific level within your rank (e.g. senior 1 vs. senior 2)? Or is this something to ask HR? There wasn’t any indication during the hiring process unless it could be inferred by salary. Thanks!

Lots of talk about CohnReznick on here lately… let’s address a few points.

1) Yes, our salaries are in line with B4. Happy to discuss specifics with the skeptics.
2) We are one of the few firms still actively hiring people without FDD experience.
3) Our WLB is miles better than B4.
4) Yes, we are paying strong referral bonuses because our practice has literally doubled in the past year.
5) All of the above is due to a strong pipeline and significant growth within the practice.

I just joined FDD for a few months as a senior and I was wondering how to network with the Partners/MD if I don’t have any project to work on at this stage? Even tho during the time I was on the project, I only reported to the managers, thus I have no visibility to the partners/MD. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Imagine being an auditor lmao

I’m in FDD… I know I signed up for this but there’s something about the anxiety that comes on a Friday knowing that we still didn’t get access to VDR .. and how that anxiety grows as you enter the long weekend knowing that access can happen at any minute (or not) and you have to tippy-toe on the idea of potentially cancelling on your memorial weekend plans. I know the unpredictability of our job but phew 😮‍💨
