Glassdoor reviews. Does Anyone have experience with a similar situation?

The one reason I wouldn’t really trust them is because the bad reviews come from field offices where people do the on the ground volunteering and I would be in the HQ doing more corporate stuff. Also the organization has a 3.1 out 5 so it’s not terrible

You do not know. I’ve known some no.ln profits where the paid staff looked down on the volunteers but this occurred close to the front lines, higher ups were unawares. Culture varies by office and even by team, how many IT teams dress formally, how many execs dress casually or sales staff. It all depends look for reviews of the team you are joining.

Yeah the team I’m interviewing for has closer to 4 stars. I know it’s a very lean organization and som people say it has Poor work life balance but from what I’ve heard between 45-50 hours per week and starting pto of 15 days which is lower than what I have now

I received an offer from IBM Bangalore. However I saw openings at my preferred location Kochi only after the interviews. I called the HR after getting their point of contact mail and I asked if it's possible to switch. They said I'm already tagged to a project and that they'll check from their end if it can be done.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.

Had a recruiter tell me that investment firms only give 24 hours for you to accept an offer - is this true? It seems crazy to me

Have others found it hard to transition from Audit to Financial Analyst? All the recruiters I’m meeting with are telling me I probably won’t get an interview since they’re looking for someone who’s ready to hit the ground running.
It’s discouraging because I’m a fast learner, and from talking to my friends who are Financial Analysts, it doesn’t seem like what we do is so dissimilar.

Does anyone think it’s weird that my firm is bending over backwards to try to keep a first year staff from leaving the firm after she was rated a 2 this year. But now she’s trying to leave and they keep trying to push her to stay saying she can be a partner in 8-9 years and laying it all out in detail. The issue is they laid off other staff (all but her) so maybe that’s it? Find it very odd.
