I’m trying to decide to stay with Schwab as a CRS or accept a offer with CACI as a business systems analyst. The pay is the same Schwab is about 3k more but in MA and CACI is in NH where my gf and friends are. Ideally want to start my own company or get into VC or PE but having trouble being a new grad. Thinking this position might give me more skills and look better on a resume. Currently am client facing and doing ops. This role would be on a navy shipyard and doing data analytics. Any advice?

Sorry CRS is client relationship specialist, MA is Massachusetts where state tax is applicable, NH is New Hampshire where there is no state tax, VC is venture capital and PE is private equity hope that helps!

There is a lot going on here hahah...but look if you want to get into PE or VC, I would personally think Schwab gives you a better pivot point. But if you wanna be with your GF, then NH is the better move?

Haha for sure a lot going on. Thank you for the help!

If you have no problem with the resources, I think you need to focus on getting some experience if you want to start your own company. Going for the role that will benefit you, in the long run, would be the answer.

I recently raised my rates after being told I wasn’t charging enough on here. Both of my main clients have already responded saying they either can’t pay me my new rate ($125/hour with 15 years experience) or are interested in “talking further.” So naturally I’m starting to freak out a little bit. I’m still pretty new to freelancing full time. What do I do/say? Do I hold my ground and hope for clients that pay me what I’m worth? Or lower my rates/standards and hope I can make ends meet! Help!

I am writing this message besides the staff group of EY GDS. Specifically Staff -1 at assurance level. I would request everyone to spare few minutes and read it -

Wanted to bring out that staff-1's are paid peanuts (3.33L CTC) please don't expect them to slog 12-13 hours. They don't have enough motivation or incentives to work that long. Seniors,AM's and Managers should be more kind and explain the work to them clearly rather than making last minute changes.

My company went toxic in the last couple months. Chose me and started interviewing.
