Do I even want to become VP? MD? Not sure if I want to become a slave to banking.

If you can make VP by 27/28 worth considering it imo.

$6mm / year on pre-tax is pretty difficult for MDs from what I’ve heard

The job is a lot different at that point, so don't extrapolate from your current role.

Also reality check: you're a slave to <insert any job> unless you win the lottery tomorrow. There's no escaping Max Weber's Iron Cage.

This one just happens to pay a lot more so hopefully you get to retire a bit sooner

Hello, I was recently let go from my firm for not being able to pass the series 10 exam. I passed the 9 and have my SIE, 7, and 63. Are there any jobs out there that require the 9 but not the 10? All the jobs I can find require them both but I’d like to use my 9. Thanks for any advice!

Considering taking a position with a small-cap in the US trying to build their legal department. The title is standard “counsel” although the work would be with the senior leadership team and reporting to the GC in Europe. How reasonable is it to ask for a bump in title - Senior counsel or Head of Legal, US? If it matters, I am a 6th year and have been told that I will be expected to hire a junior or paralegal as we build up.

It's sad to see people with 2-3 years of experience getting paid more than you when u have double the experience. 😄 Best part is they are still complaining of getting less. Well I guess you should never settle. New gen is giving a hard time to the experienced folks. I think this is the high time to upgrade your skills. Come out of your comfort zone and start looking for new opportunities. I think this is the best time to switch if u haven't already in quite some time.

Would greatly appreciate input from others.
