$325k TC at MBB in a non-generalist (still partner track) path. Love the intellectual variety, smart colleagues, flexibility (WFH has let me take occasional 2-3h windows during the day for personal activities) - can’t take the stress anymore. Are WFH industry roles at the $300-500k TC level really that much less stressful?

Hi fishes, i have a friend who suffered a lot in previous companies due to toxic work culture and worst people. She now left the job and preparing for new job interviews. Current ctc was 5lpa . Total exp 5.5 years. Can you suggest companies which have best work culture with friendly and polite people. And not too difficult to crack interviews. She’s ready to compromise on salary part. Expect 10Lpa, which is less as per current market. Domain: automation testing with java.wfh due to Above reason

Hi Fishes,
Should one resign only after background verification is done by the new company?

Feeling really overwhelmed and wondering if anyone else has struggled with something similar: I’ve been with the same company for about three years and I feel like it’s time for a change of pace. Poked around on LinkedIn and there wasn’t a single listing I was interested in that I felt genuinely qualified for. Did I somehow fall behind or does everyone just have unrealistic expectations?

I studied finance in undergrad and had a couple of internal audit internships. I only started a few month ago but I never saw myself doing IT Audit and I don’t like it thus far! Would I need to get a CPA in order to move into audit or something more finance/accounting oriented like FDD, Valuation, etc.? (Still need to get to 150, thinking of doing an online MAcc)

I’m thinking of making a switch from 4YOE in Industry to Public as a senior associate in Assurance. Do PA firm expect you to already know everything, or do they provide training to help you catch on? How challenging is it coming from industry to PA? What could be some of their expectations? And how do you exceed that?

This is probably not the correct bowl to ask this question, so if anyone knows where I should post, let me know. I have a very old Steinway Upright that I’m trying to sell. How do I go about getting a quote and selling this? Do I contact Steinway? I’m assuming not many people are rushing to buy $20k+ pianos. It’s in ok condition, so I know it can’t fetch the $50k+ 😢.
