I just received an offer from Marqeta to join the HR team.

Total comp is great, benefits package is great, I would love to be able to accept but I have some serious concerns:
- Hiring manager described company as “hot mess” to me multiple times
- Another team member told me “50% of days are bad days”
- one manager openly said no, she does not have a good balance when I asked about work/life balance

On top of that, 5/6 people I interviewed with have been at the company less than 6mos. (Cont)

(Cont…) AND the CEO announced he is stepping down and searching for his replacement last week. I feel the red flags are screaming at me that this is too risk of an option. Anyone who works there willing to weigh in??

Yes agreed. I was an associate hrbp and joined a company with many red flags as an hrbp. Even more red flags in hindsight. Would go back in a heartbeat. Don’t do it.

Yup agreed, just left an organization like that not worth your physical and mental health don’t underestimate the damages this could cause you….

Run!

Hi all,

Need some advice on my next career move. I'm 31, have an MBA and am currently a SC in Risk Advisory with no M&A experience. I am good at risk consulting work but don't find it very challenging or interesting. That said, I expect to get promoted to M next year.

Recently, I interviewed with another Big 4 firm for SC in CDD M&A team and have got an offer. I enjoyed doing the CDD case study, and I believe I'd do well in the role.

Does it make sense to start afresh in M&A at this stage?
