What’s wrong with fidi? HM is a big deal though , they are your sponsor and take you further if you don’t see growth opp then say it that way that you have better growth path where you are at , IMO location especially with all changes happening with the firm will be changing anyways over next 5 years

@jpm1 have you ever been at 4nyp? I would much rather take brooklyn than that. During the interview i connected better with other interviewers (vp and eds from other teams) but not the hiring manager. She sounded a bit harsh. I am pretty sure other interviewers said good things abt me which is why they decided to give me an offer. Working with all kinds of managers in the past, i came to understand that it’s so important to work with someone you genuinely like cuz you have to spend 70 or 80% of your time in their company

I actually worked in 4nyp , right now in midtown but moving back there in 2 weeks for wholesale bank, 3 factors for a role that I consider and I have moved a lot across locations in the firm - role/scalability, hiring manager /leadership , where you sit in the org - front office/back office ....I am location agnostic because you can remote or come a day or two. Curious what level are you at

Hello all, i have. A question regarding compensation for a lateral move. I just received a job offer for an UA position from a competing cyber insurance carrier for $70,000 + bonuses. This job will be based out of San Francisco. I currently make $30/hour for the same role in Chicago, after OT it’s about $60,000. Do you think it would be wise to accept the offer? Thoughts in general?
