I keep seeing jobs posted at Discover card but am hesitant to apply due to the possible merger with Capital One. Any idea what the new company would look to keep from the merger? I’m in risk.

If the deal goes through, which it very well may not, as the DOJ, OCC, the Fed, have expressed concern about the merger itself. But let’s say that everything goes through, it will take some time for the deal to synergize. That being said, typically there ends up being a tremendous amount of overlap of roles and responsibilities, leading to lay-offs due to redundancy. So, if it’s a good gig, it might be worth it to take the role, if you feel that you can make an impact, when the two firms are combined. It’s a toss up either way. But if the new role gives you additional exposure, some more tools to put in your tool box, and a more senior role, then the juice may be worth the squeeze.

Best of luck to you!

Cheers!

What would be the best method to transition from a financial advisory role to a more financial analyst focused position? Is this type of move unheard of/too difficult to do?

I have been approached with an opportunity at JP Morgan Chase for their private client advisor role. The book is about 30M all in. I am currently an experienced hybrid asset manager wholesaler and have experience in advising as well. Curious about the opportunity with JPM and if it’s worth it. I currently make about 160k and if JPM would give me a high draw for the first 3 years to build, and if it’s feasible to sustain that 160+ there.
