I used to work at MS, I know what you’re referring too. I used to donate to a charity I was involved with at school called THON at Penn State for pediatric cancer research/support.

The last four places have done this. I make sure I submit matches for the donation part of memberships. Also other charities I like, GLWD has a good Thanksgiving drive.

Finally my kids PA is a charity and looks for a buck a kid so with the match that puts 4k in their pocket for little effort on my part.

Hey! I've always wanted to get into IB (prestige, money, you name it), however now that I'm in a more laid back environment (better WLB, "easier work") it doesn't seem as attractive as before and the pay is quite good for an analyst level (I think the pay is competitive even comparing with IB's pay in my country) . I wanted to know if anyone had the same experience and what were your thoughts (pursue an MBA and leave your comfort zone and "good pay" or just stick with it). TIA!
