Been laid off 3 times in my career. What’s the most someone has been laid off? Is this a sign I need to move to another industry because this doesn’t feel good. Losing confidence and can’t find work

Has anyone ever felt like some of the feedbacks you received is because you are Asian? Like i keep being told that I sound unsure, unconfident and not poised enough.. I've been told once that I didn't have enough presence on a call but.. I did the presentation so I talked 90% of the call..

Desperate to leave my bank but sort of a non traditional candidate in a levfin role. I want to work in growth equity ideally but competition is tough and not getting much traction with the top head hunters for those roles. Would it make sense for me to work at a growth equity backed startup in a strategic finance role?

Fish fam - would appreciate everyone’s thoughts on my next purchase. I currently have an Omega Speedmaster Professional that I bought a few years ago (thanks to this bowl!) to start my watch collection and I’ve been eying Rolex Datejust 41 as my next piece. I decide on the fluted bezel + jubilee bracelet but I’m torn dial color (I put myself as interest in grey, slate, and white as my Speedy is obviously a black dial). Any thoughts on the below options?

Hi All,

I have a situation in front of me. I got an offer from small company or we could say startup company Uzio (pdt based) and my manager in current company didn't revert back with any retaining offer. It's been a month and 27 days left in np.
My dilemma is that my current team including reporting manager are very rude and not supportive. I don't want to work in this project. But if I join in that startup company, there's a risk as everyone is talking about recession, firing. Suggestions?

Do all roles require team match? If not, which roles would not require team match?

Hi Fishes,

I have two offers right now. One is from AXA XL and the other one from Wells Fargo. Both are into data science plus engineering and offering similar package. Which one should I go for? I'm looking for better quality of work and exposure.
