I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's Master's in Management. They both have the same requirements, generally speaking, including a field immersion course that serves as a capstone in the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?

HER, Tinder, Bumble? Preferences ?

How have you navigated your career being one of the very few women in the room? This is a daunting dynamic to confront early in a career that it will likely be this way going forward.

I’ve been in corporate America and Finance for less than a year but every time I have interacted with a woman who’s an MD or higher up, seeking mentorship or advice, they have just been so cold and rude! I’m also POC and have actively reached out to other WOC who are senior to me and I keep experiencing this. I can understand being busy and having more than you can juggle on your hands but I do not understand the lack of empathy? Albeit my sample size is small here but is it just me?

How do you get the most out of your Series 7? From feeling like you are actively using it and making a nice income. I would hate to feel like I need a career move just because the Pay isn’t where I need it to be or maybe it’s because I am in Ohio?

What type of resources do you feel are important for you to succeed at work/in your position?

so I just had my quarterly feedback meeting w my boss and my negative feedback was that I never turn my camera on so it comes across like I’m unprepared.... it was partially due to circumstance but also in part because I’m insecure about being seen as less than without makeup and professional clothes..thoughts?

My boss suggested an internal development program to me that involves moving to a different team and likely a demotion. He later retracted and said he didn’t know about the job levels. Not sure how I’m supposed to feel about this 🫠

Hi Ladies!

I am a current IB analyst at a BB in an industry coverage group. Have been thinking of recruiting to PE but don’t know where and how to start. Any advice? Also, is there a way we could share our prep resources and materials here?

Thank you in advance!

Has being more assertive ever backfired on you? I'm naturally more reserved and am trying to work on this without coming across as a bitch. Any tips?

How are you guys staying healthy and proactive during this “tri-demic”?

I quit my job at a bank call center (MF dealer) didn’t give out a 2 weeks. I’m finishing up my licenses and school starts in 2 weeks. I’m 22 with 3 years of banking experience, 1.5 years of investment associate experience. Do you think that leaving without giving a notice will follow me in the future? It’s a call center, and I was not able to control my schedule so we always got it 2-3 weeks in advance but couldn’t plan ahead. Will school/scheduling be a good excuse if my next employer asks?

Any opinions on mentoring?

Anyone have advice on handling other people’s stress rn? My brother is a resident and starting a hospital rotation (family medicine, Nola).  My mom is stressed out of her mind. Idk how to help

Anyone else feel like they’re not right for the corporate world? It’s not my personality to let my manager know of everything I’m working on - I’m heads down and I get the job done and only bring him in if I need help. However, I’m now learning that this is hurting me because my more vocal colleagues are being recognized for tasks I already do. I just hate these corporate games. Why isn’t it enough to just do the work well?

You guys know about AI trading system? It’s actually the most efficient way to trade right now. Everyone in it is actually making over $1500 — $2000 weekly

Hey all, what’s your opinion on providing 2 Week notice? Do you think it’s still standard or depends on the situation.

I recently received my start date for a new job, and am happy to be leaving my current situation- it is a very hostile environment. I’m debating whether to give a week or two week notice.

Did anyone see the post in the Work-Life bowl posted by the analyst? Saying that he(26M) was scared to be judged at corporate events for his gfs(19F!!!) hair color & tattoos? If you didn’t, please check out the comments. And then remember that these are men in the financial industry, that could very well be your coworkers. The grooming. The objectification. I am disgusted, but not surprised.

What are some of the things you guys do while listening to audio books?

My manager consistently makes condescending remarks about my work even though I’m overworked and prioritize what is urgent. I regularly work 12-13+ hours a day but never receive any confirmation or recognition that I’m doing a good job and there is always something to criticise.
How should I approach speaking to my manager about this toxic environment?
I’m the only woman on my team and have noticed my manager does not speak to my male colleagues with the same tone

Happy Friday everyone!! What are your weekend plans?
