I feel that using the term pregnancy brain could be demeaning and make coworkers look down on me but I am having some real slowdown this pregnancy and it is affecting my work. I am great at capturing notes and keeping up and pacing myself. The issue is explaining complex solutions to get my point across. When everything is a fight for the user, you have to get creative in explaining. Right now my words are scrambled. How do you overcome or talk about this?

Is there a way to use WFH to your advantage — like prepping scripts for things you want to say so there’s less on-the-spot interpretation? Do you work with anyone else who has been pregnant and might understand?

I have adhd and am also pregnant. I mention adhd because I’ve being clear and succinct on the spot can be a challenge. Generally, before I speak, I write out key points that come to mind, so I don’t ramble or get off topic. There is usually a bit of time between someone speaking in a meeting and me responding that I can get away with this. Otherwise, agree prepping your key message s/ points in advance really helps.

In DDV (deals) wondering if we hopped to other industries what would be the best exit? I don’t think I could get PE/IB. What type of jobs at FANGM could we apply for and be actually qualified for?

Considering an opportunity at UBS Switzerland for Senior Consultant role at their internal consulting arm. ~ 6 YoE total, of that 3.5Y in FO Trading, 2.5Y management consulting --> likely being promoted from L9 to L7 at end of year. What would be the salary range for this position? I am not sure, whether this falls under AD or D band? Also, should I wait for the promotion, and leverage the new title for new opportunities?
