No one knows but ask yourself if you can afford the risk. If you’re in investment banking, maybe you can?

I think it's only going up from here so if you can afford to put most of your bonus in it and not feel the pain in the immediate sense, then I think that's your answer

Have you had comp discussions as yet? What was your promo raise from S1 to S2, what practice and city?

Can get advice on TC?
Let’s say your original TC in your current is 300k, but because of stock appreciation, your actual TC now is 500k (same base, same bonus, but stock appreciated). When negotiating with new company, will the new company consider your TC as 500k, or 300k? Thanks

Not long ago I obtained bachelors and in the interim I have been working at Morgan Stanley.

Is it even possible to to do for instance masters in law if I only have bs in business or for example masters in something related to renewable energy or so?

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
