Is it worth it to get your PMP? I saw another post on this where people were saying no, no. I just want to know if the effort will actually help you leverage yourself up (career and salary wise).

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.

Currently making 180 TC at a large bank and have an offer from a FAANG for 260 TC. Salary is not much different (165) but bonus/equity structure is decent. fully remote, dope company etc. I’ll be moving laterally in terms of title but I get the impression the scope/impact is larger and leveling is different in tech… no brainer?

How should one properly calculate total comp? Base + bonus + stock options? Should you only include options that vest that year or include the total $ granted that will vest over 4 years?

What do you do when everyone is leaving the company you just started at but you have no choice but to stay?

Is flexi bucket part of monthly salary? Or do we need to claim it as part of monthly expenses?

Need your inputs, I have experience in Java Automation for past 2 years.. now my yet join company is using Ruby for Automation. Not a big deal in learning about ruby.

Any downsides to leaving a “Counsel” role and moving into a “Legal Affairs” role? Still practicing and representing the company, just a difference of titles, so core work remains the same - what do you think?

T2 consulting —> MBA at M7–> top tier IB —> top tier PE/HF. Is this feasible?

How feasible is it to transition out of compliance into legal practice?

Anyone out there who left their previous job for a new one have any advice or life experience to share? I’ve been thinking about it for months but currently feel comfortable in my job/the products I work on. I’d say I have a great work/life balance but I do know that I could be making 20-30% more and have better benefits if I left. I also feel a bit stagnant in my job but the job security has kept me put. Would love to hear if leaving a comfortable job for more money is always worth it.

For Communications role with 12+ exp, should i still go for a manager position or a senior manager?
Options -
Big 4 - manager - 26.50 L fixed or Optum - Sr. Manager - 28 L fixed

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?

Hi Guys, thanks on suggestions on previous post.
I have aced Google's RRK interview.
Next up GCA!, Any experiences/resource let them come in...
