Received offers from PNC and UBS. Same position. Same benefits. Purely seeking opinions on the companies. Previous experience at EJ. Left to get away from outside sales nature and isolation.

UBS all the way

Worked at both. PNC is the safer bet with the lower ceiling. UBS is going to be eat what you kill unless you are partnering with a team.

Neither. Go independent so you are not shackled and can be in a position to give the best advice to clients.

What’s the position? Are you just trying to decide from being in a bank vs workhouse or is the pnc position outside of a bank?

Both centralized financial Advisor roles. Simply comparing cultures, size, scope, and atmosphere at regional Bank vs global investment firm

Pnc eats alot of commission that they don't tell you about ask both for a commission sheet on all products the grid is only part of the story also ask them to give you a deep dive of the books

I’m at PNC now in the branches. It’s been an enjoyable company to work for. While the commission may not compare to B/D like UBS or EJ, stress is relatively low especially if you’re centralized. I assume you are walking into a book or bringing one?

How do you deal with counter offers? I have an offer to join a larger tech company in a more senior role, with bonus and RSUs that my current start up can’t match. But my current company want me to stay. They offered an increased base salary which is still below the new offer and I went back and said no, so they might increase. This only came about by me exploring a headhunt approach after being underpaid by my current company for the time I’ve been here . Would you hear them out or just leave?

Hi! First time working with a larger company - suggestions on handling pronouns at work?

I’ve worked with smaller agencies where it was easier to bring up. Now I’m on a larger team, talking to/referencing people I’ve never met. I’m less concerned about my own pronouns and more concerned about how to make sure I’m using the correct pronouns for the people I work with.

I’ve been structuring sentences to avoid gender specific pronouns but would love to hear suggestions. Thanks!

Idk who needs to hear this but don’t just accept feeling lucky to have a job during a pandemic as an excuse to not get your promotion AND raise. If they say they don’t have money, issa lie. They have it, just not for you.

It goes without saying but always keep that resume fresh and be on the lookout for yourself because they SHOL ain’t lookin out for us.

🗣Don’t let them assign your value, know it for yourself and leave if you have to!!

Anyone made the transition from NYC to Austin?

I find myself asking why I am in NYC when everything is so damn expensive. Making good money, but limited on savings and quality of life due to the HCOL. Or recs for other cities for that matter.

I’m interviewing with the company although I have offer signed with another (going though background checks, so didn’t wanna stop before knowing 100%). Really love the process and the team, but unless something goes sideways with signed offer won’t be joining them.
