Unless the databooks were created by all knowing AI there are bound to be mistakes. That’s why there are buy side reports as well

I needed this, thank you haha

I purposely leave the mistake in there for ya’ll to find.

I’m getting sick of sell sides at this point

Think larger middle-market, messy accounting

Feeling you man.

Pretty much always

Define mistake? Small formula blow on an ancillary schedule that doesn’t impact anything overly important? All the time. QoE table doesn’t foot? Not a good look

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

Why do we always tell people “Be the best version of yourself before starting a relationship?”
I feel this is wrong…first, if you’re someone who constantly wants to be better, this doesn’t work. Also, what happens when you’re going through things and you’re not the best version? What happens is…the going gets tough and then one person leaves the other.

Hi everyone.
Just reached final on-site round for a Senior Manager position in the logistics department. Role is for Amazon UK. Recruiter is asking me now for my expected compensation (base salary + total comp) via email. Any idea what to aim for?

I don’t know the level but was aiming £80k base, +15% bonus. If I don’t fall under their budget, would I automatically be removed from candidates?
Any tips are appreciated!
