For those of you that make passive income with the market, what strategies do you use to find and evaluate companies for investment?

Looking for a new job. My project is awful and my CC just emailed and asked how it’s going. Don’t want to be moved on a diff project when I’m hopefully going to quit soon, but don’t want to (contd)

Less than a year into my role as an analyst in IT audit. Took the role with the hopes of transferring to a finance-focused group and after passing CFA L1 I mentioned this to my coach last week (also hold an MS in Finance, FWIW).

He said we should move on this quickly and to send him over a few projects / teams I’d want to work with.

Hi PwC FDD fishes! How often do you work weekends? How’s the work life balance in FDD. 60 hours during the week and less weekend work or? Currently a rising S1 at EY FAAS and I am considering PwC FDD; what level do I come in at if I were to apply?

TS professionals, what technology, software etc do you use at your firm during the QoE work? What technology, software would you like to be using?

I hope our firm is careful in deciding comp in the next 2 weeks. It’s too easy to double one’s comp and turn to investment banking.

What do you think makes more sense:
a) Stay in audit and get M1 promo this year, and then later try to transfer to FDD at manager level.
b) Move to FDD right now as S3, settle in at more relaxed pace but only hit M1 promo in 2 years.

Do any of the Big Four have FDD groups in San Diego? Seems like most west coast practices are San Fran or LA.
