How do I get into M&A tax/structuring only jobs. I currently do PE compliance and have had the opportunity to do OOS work like tax modeling and light structuring. I feel that I am able to explain the effects certain structures have on the character of income for LPs, and I can understand benefits/pitfalls of structuring decisions. Is there a way I can push my career to focus entirely on this type of work?

Maybe start be transfering internally to M&a tax group or externally if that is what your really want.

What city are you in? I’d recommend pushing for a rotation in either National Tax or the M&A group. Can also look at International or Real Estate. Depending on the team, those roles may also be focused on structuring. If your client is doing a deal, you could also volunteer to help.

Seems like you’d be good in our PTG (partnership transactions group). It falls under the M&A tax umbrella.

Not a ton. I think they do mainly PTG work. The main partner there does really well

Here’s a hypothetical:

A company has 2 candidates, aged 25-30, equal in every respect save one’s a man the other’s a woman. Maybe the woman is a slightly better candidate overall. They’d have equal comp.

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷

I’ve got about 20 years cross channel experience in marketing, split between big brands and startups, and I’m considering pivoting into a data science/data analyst role. I know it will initially be a step back in comp but is it at all realistic for a person with certificate level experience in data analysis but a decent marketing management background to expect $150-200k comp or is that mostly for degreed candidates (or not realistic at all)? Any guidance here is greatly appreciated.

Do all firms share utilization reports for all staff with everyone? I feel like it’s awful for our company culture to share everyone’s stats office-wide. Just breeds anger and bad vibes all around.

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring?
