Hi Fishes,

I am thinking to diverting my career towards freelancing in accounting.
For that I have to resign from my current job in Pwc. I am thinking of starting a job as accountant and work as a freelancer as part-time.

Any thoughts or advice?

I’m a technical sales engineer in the building automation space. 2 years out of college. Anybody have any advice on the best way to get into the tech industry as a sales engineer? Appreciate any insights or advice

Hey y'all, kind of a two part question:
1. I enjoy the people management more than individual contributor stuff. What career paths do you see in our industry for people who are managing support engineering teams?
2. What certifications are valued today? Seems like being a AWS Cloud Practitioner is a good general one, but are there others that stand out?

Anyone at EY or Deloitte? Trying to apply for FDD position.

EY: What's the difference between

SaT - Transaction Diligence????
JD seems to be almost identical.

Deloitte: What's the FDD equivalent position in Deloitte? I only found manager position so I was not sure about it.

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?

Recently got a contract job at Facebook NY. I’ve mostly only been a FTE for the entirety of my career, so a bit nervous as I want to eventually be offered FT but feeling a lot of pressure to perform for the next 5 months to prove my worth. At some point it will surely get exhausting. Any tips for how to deal with this? Also curious to know what a mid-level PM normally gets paid as a freelancer?

I’m an Environmental Protection Specialist and make pretty good money for what I do. I just feel like I have more to offer than being a worker bee in a system at 25. I work with a lot of retirees and would love to return in my latter professional years. I have my Bachelors in Applied Coastal Environmental Science and want to expand my options. Any suggestions that won’t require me taking a crazy pay cut? I’m pretty much open to anything.

MBB AP about to exit to non-FAANG tech. Would you expect a signing bonus and/or pre-determined severance pay if things don't work out with the new company? Anything else that people have negotiated during their exit? I'd be leaving a large amount of bonus on the table to leave before the end of the year.

It will be a great help if anyone can refer or aware of any job openings in NYC area. Thanks!

I just got a job offer for an Entry Level Software Engineer at Boeing in Saint Louis. The salary is $82,000 with an $8,000 sign on bonus. I was hoping for an offer closer to 90k base and I don’t care too much for a sign on bonus. However, this is a lot more than what I’m making now, and would be my first SWE job. Should I counter? If so, how would I go about doing that? Thanks!

Thoughts on the Heuer Monaco? Never been a fan of Tags but the Monaco is a looker! Any ideas where to get one?

Know this is a long shot, but if I’m counseled out of one MBB, what are the chances I could get an equivalent job at another? And if not another MBB, thinking that a T2 or B4 could be possible? I’m not even sure I want to stay in consulting, but also feel like I didn’t get a fair shot at it

Received AD from NYU Stern Tech MBA. The deposit is due in 2 weeks. Interviewed with Kellogg 1Y as well and waiting for decision. Definitely prefer Kellogg. Should I contact K for their decision?

do any consulting firms in the US (MBB, Big 4) sponsor MBA programs outside of the country (e.g. London Business School, HEC Paris, INSEAD)

Does anyone know what time of day Sloan released decisions last year? And if it was by email/portal/phone call?

Apply or wait a year?

Advice on applying in Round 3 for Darden ?

Heading to an M7 soon from a tech company where I work in a product-adjacent position. I didn’t need this degree to “break into” product management (former company would have let me transition), but I still figured it could be good for the long run.
Now when thinking about 100K in loans, I feel anxious about not getting a PM role after. Was this the right move?

3.46 GPA and 323 GRE score from senior year of UG. Going to take the GMAT this fall, but curious, do I have a shot at M7 schools with my current stats?

Are sponsored applicants less likely to get scholarship $ since the school knows that $ is likely not a barrier to attending?

I keep hearing that Booth’s MBA program is rigorous (maybe the most rigorous out of M7). That said, how much more work are students expected to do compared to HBS, Wharton, Kellogg, etc.? I don’t know if this is an outdated opinion, considering a lot of MBAs are very demanding. Booth is personally my top choice for having a flexible curriculum & 2-3 days of classes. But I really want to know what to expect around the “rigorous” label. Does it mean I’ll be buried in coursework the other 2-3 days?

Enrolled in Stern for a few weeks.
The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
Stern is way more than a finance school. Given its location, do you want to spend your 2 years in a rural area or heart of Manhattan? Location is almost everything for business school. (I have a friend in Cornell that frequently travels about 5 hours to NYC for events.)

M7 part time vs top 25-30 full time for career pivots and network?

In one month is my mid term review.. Should I let my mentor know I'm applying for mba this year now or should I wait till after the review session? I'm afraid mentioning going to b school would hurt my "fast promotion". What's your guy's experience? :)

If hypothetically I turn down a school because of denied company sponsorship, does that kill my chances of being admitted if I apply again in the future?

How useful is sponsorship as a negotiating lever for full-time roles? I realistically do not see myself going back to consulting after B school. I have to stay for 3-4 more months to keep my sponsorship but starting to seriously consider quitting ASAP

Hi everyone,

Sponsored folks, where do you plan to intern during bschool?

Chances of convincing HBS to take me off the waitlist using offers and full tuition scholarships from all the other M7 (GSB, Wharton, Kellogg, Booth, Sloan, CBS)?

Is starting your own side business seen as a good extracurricular for MBA applications?

Any Wharton admits who’ve received the admit package? I’m outside the US and haven’t gotten it yet
