I mean, it’s the best job I’ve ever had. That isn’t to say it hasn’t had me up against the wall crying at times. Peaks and troughs. Upsides are insanely good, assuming you still do get some value from when we’re working ourselves intensively.

Very good compared to other comparable roles.

Completely terrible compared to anything the rest of my family does for a living.

Hi all, I’m looking to switch into Strategic Finance at a tech company and was looking to chat with someone in a similar role. I have total 4 yoe, the last 3 being in a quant role at a major valuation firm. I want to switch into a more cross-functional and strategic role while still working in finance which is why a strategic finance role seemed a good fit. Finding it tough to get interviews so looking to connect with people in these roles. Thanks!

After 3 years of dealing with the worst firm I've ever had the displeasure of working for, I finally landed my dream gig at a small specialty firm.

Keep looking for what you want and deserve. I'm happy to be forging a better path away from what I've had to endure.
