Assuming all the offers are equal, I'd go with JP Morgan Chase. They're all solid, but Jamie Dimon seems focused on the future. Of course, he's also focused on having people in the office and working hard, so there's also that.

lol wanting people in the office and work hard is a negative? good lord

if it’s in the new 270, go for it

I've worked at 2 of those companies and interviewed recently with another... Your best bet is to stay with ML or choose Wells. Also, anyone in the office 5 days a week is a psychopath.

What do you do

like

JPMC. Despite all the little things - like you will be nudged to make up for any missed but otherwise scheduled/expected in office days and Jamie is always highlighting risks early (and never missing an opportunity to use that to trim comp) but its frankly still a great platform.

They document the hell out of everything so use that to your advantage and read up.

JP Morgan. The others are too aggressive and abrasive

And you just being hired does not make you safe . I have heard of people moving across the country for their location strategy, only to be cut 4 months later. I was there 22 years, as soon as Charlie took over, became progressively worse for employees.

JPM. They don’t do mass layoffs where you get ambushed. You’ll notice it in performance reviews or reading in between the lines with your pay, if you need to leave. JPM is most stable.

I have been at JPMC for 15 years. While they offer many benefits I think it would depend where in the company I was working for as I am currently looking to get out.

JPMorgan depending on the team. I’m curious, how did you manage to secure three offers in this market? I’ve seen many people struggling even to get interviews. What do you think helped you stand out? Which offer did you decide to go with in the end?

Awesome questions. I was wondering that myself. One private investment firm offered me the job and then they took it away, did not get it. Lucky they have 3 offers!

I would want to look at the offers and comp packages, not just the companies. I assume each company is not offering the exact same thing, so I would factor in things like flexibility, benefits, and pay. And then I would probably go with JP Morgan lol.

Should I specialize in Blockchain or AI? I’m a freshman in a CS degree and I can’t decide. My main argument to choose blockchain is the easy entry with little experience and high salary, I plan on growing my skills during the bear market and get a job once the market recovers. Regarding AI, I find this field fascinating but I feel like it requires a lot of experience, degrees and diplomas.

We’re starting to interview for my copywriter partner this week, but I don’t have any creative leadership above me (I’m also the only creative with agency experience at the company) so I’m nervous about being the only one looking at prospective partners.

Any tips for good questions to ask to feel out who is the best fit? I’ve worked with great and not so great writers in the past and it wasn’t always clear which would end up being the not so great based on their books.

Currently a Wealth Advisor for Citi but I honestly hate it here with a passion it’s the worst company I’ve ever worked for in my life and I’ve been in Wealth Management in the banking channel for over a decade. Series 7, Series 63, Life, CFP, ChFC, and soon to have my MBA with a focus in Mergers & Acquisitions. I’m look to enter another area of Finance at this point instead of starting over somewhere else from scratch, but not sure what direction to go. Interested in Investment Banking or M&A.

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

Does anybody know what the typical salary range is and total comp for someone starting out as an internal or external wholesaler? If you are one of these, can you share about your experience in terms of whether you liked it or not, work life balance, travel, etc?

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.
