What City? audit, tax or advisory? CPA/ masters (might not matter much but some ask for it)?

No difference.

Audit

I’d be interested to hear how you got a HF offer after 2 years in audit (not sarcastic)

If you have a cpa not much diff but if not then you definitely look for sth less

...not much different? Are we talking about the same thing here? My assumption is that OP is talking about a DD type analyst position at a fund or doing fund accounting, not doing accounting for a hedge fund company.

Hey Bowl,
I work for a late stage(ipo) start up, earlier this year we were acquired & since then they got rid of our yearly bonuses and gave us an ESOP grant.
2 RIFs later we are almost bare bones. Since we are coming up on our usual yearly evaluations many of us assumed (with multiple conversation from our managers) that pay raises and promotions were due.
In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?

Went in to check compare sizes for an Aqua Terra (green dial) but now torn between that and Moonwatch Sapphire (manual wind but the case in the back is just 😍)

Surprisingly the Moonwatch felt smaller (even though it’s 42mm vs 41mm Aqua terra) but I’m not sure about the manual wind tbh - worried I’d break it

This is going to be my main watch for the next 20+ years so I want to make sure I pick correctly!
