Hi all,

I have 2+ years of experience in structured finance (CDO suite, ABS, liabilities) plus a 9-month Finance & Accounts internship. Just finished my notice period & want to pivot into FP&A longterm

Do companies value profiles transitioning from structured finance into FP&A?

Would this move typically involve starting at an entry level or with a salary reset?

Has anyone here gone through a similar career shift?

Any guidance or referrals would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Why do you want to pivot into FP&A?

I’m pivoting to FP&A because I’m excited to use my finance skills in a forward-looking role that drives business decisions and strategy.

Hi, fishes.
A quick query here.

I'm going to move from non IT profile to IT profile. Basically I'll be applying as front end engineer in new company. Previously I was working in a BPO profile.
Just wanted to ask if I'll be provided training in my initial months as a front end engineer or am I expected to work from the very first day.
Your comments will be really helpful.

Thank you.

RANT: People re-writing a cw’s stuff has always been painful. These days it’s far more common than when I started. It’d be one thing if they upgraded the work. If I learned from it. If I genuinely seethed with envy over their wit w/that perfectly placed semi-colon. People can’t re-art direct stuff bc they don’t know the programs so they ask the ADs for changes. Word and a keyboard made everyone think they can write. Which they can’t. Google Slides is Google slip ‘n slide into (bad ref. here.)

When I inform this to my manager he is saying how come u say like this to client.according to kpmg policy u need to travel to anywhere to work.
This is not good right. What should be my reply to the client in such a case and how to handle manager on this?
