Hi Partners! I am sure there were many moments in your career where you thought of leaving for an industry job or try something different (tax specifically). What made you stay and do you have any regrets in not trying a different path? Or are you happy with your choice to stay?

Thoughts on Symposium?

Does anyone work for New York Life? What are some roles that pay salary plus commission, or at least a very decent salary? I have an interview to go over options and would like to maybe have some options of my own before going into this.

Any tips on how to respectfully give upward feedback to an SM or PPD that’s better than, “If you had just told me you wanted it in that specific framework, we could have avoided those first 5 reviews"

Real Question: has anyone been body shamed or been treated differently based on the way you look? I feel like I’m starting to see it and want to know if this is common.

Hi there, Partners.

I'm an associate who wants to make Partner one day but whenever I talk about "career advancement" with my Partner I get the "don't rush it, it's all merit based"

I'm aware of the business goals of my organization and the different ways one should contribute to said goals. That being said, should I keep looking for the conversation to express my desire to, one day, be considered for Partnership? Should I keep grinding and save it for when I make Consultant?

Thank you

Partners, what is your experience dealing with HR? I’ve recently felt like partners are increasingly becoming powerless from a talent perspective(advocating for raises and promotions etc) as the firms are all growing… essentially more bureaucracy and more powerful HR departments - and honestly it feels like the HR talent is mediocre at best compared to the high performing talent that these firms staff in their projects… hope to be proved wrong or just not have the right perspective
