DM me - I’ve got the interviews coming up to transfer as a manager into FDD and would love to get some interview tips.

Yeah I’d say an average month could include one 40hr week, one 50 hr week, and two 60 hr weeks

Sounds like all FDD firms are now focused on bringing in experienced managers and up, rather than the recent push for staff and seniors

Cuz there are a ton of inexperienced staff right now. I can get seniors for all my projects but they all need significant handholding so it’s not like my workload has been reduced. Meanwhile experienced folks continue to burn out and quit - we have lost most of our manager and SM class in the last two years and I know most of the remaining are actively looking.

The company I work for is based out of a different state. They’re HR team makes more because of cost of living. Well, that has changed dramatically and over the last 3 years my state has soared passed theirs. Our team has not received inflation adjustment and we still make less than the team in our base office because of “cost of living”. My team and I have worked hard to demonstrate this but we are not being heard. The obvious would be to look elsewhere but other than this issue, I’m happy here
