Does anyone have tips to best manage a virtual data room with TONS of files? I keep missing information e.g. not knowing that a breakdown is presented in page 40 out of 100 of a particular file

Turn on alerts when anything new is posted. I usually do a completeness check every once in a while

Yes, this too.

Do one full sweep at first. Then turn alerts on and monitor every file that is uploaded during the engagement. If a file is relevant, i send it in an email to the team.

If the files are all PDFed together just cut them into different files in Adobe and label them accordingly

Personally, it’s not my job to find shit that is improperly labeled or disorganized. My job is to look for what we need and request what is missing.

We will inevitably need to request more support, so just add it to the IRL.

If the sell-side / client says “oh we already uploaded it here in folder xyz” I say thanks and then boom we solved the problem in like 1 minute. I justify my behavior because it reduces the amount of time wasted and thus keeps the bill low.

Hi guys. I'm working with a bank and I wanted to join an MNC because of a lot of reasons. Some of them are:
1. Target pressure
2. Work culture
3. Strict Office timings.
4. WFH is not available.
And a lot more.
Because I've been working in a different state for the last 6 months. I can't take more than 1 week's leave because of the banking norms.
Kindly suggest me what to do here.
My specializations are:
1. Financial advisory
2. Mutual funds.
3. Portfolio management.

My manager casually threw out that she had an exec tell her it’s fine if she wants to close my division down next year. We are a niche team in a large company. I asked her to clarify as I am worried about my team (and me) she said we would be “well taken care of” as in receive severance…she was so casual about it and said she didn’t know what she would do - we’re performing well, but it’s a small market. What do I do? Warn my team? Look for jobs? I have been here for 20 years w/niche skills…

Should I continue working toward getting my CPA? I’m a second year staff in audit and just finished my 3 busy season (1st one from internship) and am burned out. I know I don’t want to stay in audit nor do I want my next job to be anything primarily accounting related. I want to get into transaction advisory (or somewhere in the realm off M&A), FDD, or turnaround & restructuring.

Been working in Big 4 FDD for a little under two years, interviewing past 2-3 months for FDD, strategy, and IB. Received an offer from a MM FDD group for a 25% pay bump, but mainly looking to pivot out as I’ve burned out of FDD and want to move into a more finance focused role. Currently moved into second rounds at a senior strategy role for a F500 and case study stage for two boutique IB’s.

Would it be dumb to turn down the guaranteed FDD role and see how the others turn out?
