Not in investment banking. However, my new role requires familiarity with income statement, dcf, accounting, comps etc.,. Is the Wall Street Prep course recommended to get up to speed on core financial topics and related excel work? Thanks in advance.

You can probably find free resources on YouTube that cover the basics. I've done some BIWS and some wall street prep and they are helpful but expensive. I'd check out the free resources first.

Weird question. Got an offer months ago for a job abroad (not in my country of choice) and turned it down due to the low salary and not being in Europe. I started a new role in NYCsince I got that job offer in a large firm (from a small firm in a small town), started 3 months ago, and I absolutely hate it. Not sure whether I should try this small firm abroad for a change in pace. The new firm swears, “if you ever work past 5 pm here, there’s something seriously wrong. We don’t believe in that.”
