Holy shit. What is the easiest way to get to the hotel from the dumpster fire that is LGA?? I’ve tried uber and the walk/line/wait is forever. Tried a taxi tonight and you have to take a bus!

The answer is to never fly through LGA.

Yeah you’ve exhausted all the good options. There’s always the Q70/Q72 bus that’ll take you straight to the subway station

Are car services relegated to the lots as well?

You might be able to get a taxi to let you in at Arrivals

LGA is horrid. The line stops at 6pm and then you need to request a normal uber so hopefully you’ll be in it before then. Other options are going to a diff terminal and requesting there. But to ZS1’s point - until they figure out their ish don’t fly thru LGA.

Oh also, uber black doesn’t require a line. So if no expense concerns, do that.

Definitely not uber/lyft now that they implemented the pin system

Feel like audit scheduling is always done on a knifes edge in that the timeline and staff schedules are enough so that if everyone works 60 hour weeks and no issues are identified then it can be filed on time. But even small things that increase the work can wildly throw off the schedule and cause hours to skyrocket for the staff on the job. No real point here, just ranting.

Interested in working in PE, but experiences align more with the Ops side (3 YOE in strategic value creation). Is there a significant difference in total comp potential between ops and investments roles? Not sure how to make a case to break into investments with minimal DD experience, so thinking about Ops recruitment (Associate). Would also be grateful to learn about potential strategies non-DD focused consultants have used to ultimately break into investment teams.
