OP - what do you think your exit ops are? I’d expect an SM to have a starting hypothesis.

How’d you get promo’d and not have a clue?

I mean I’m looking at corp strategy roles in house but don’t know what level id go into since each company has their own structure of Corp strat groups

Probably Director, though it could depend on size of the company and your total YOE

Imagine you're looking for a remote job at a large company with a sophisticated marketing function, strong manager, and room for growth.

It's remote, the salary is good, the manager is nice, but you'd be the most senior marketing person; the company is about 200 people. What would you do?

Just got promoted to audit senior, but can’t imagine doing another busy season. I have some forensics internship experience from college and always wanted to pivot to forensics.

If I transfer and have no choice but to work on insurance/claims, would it be better to stay in auditing? Is the insurance/claims work demanding/difficult intellectually wise?

For BND, the dividend is 0.15 and the yield is 2.2%. Does it mean that for every BND I purchase I will receive 0.15 USD on a yearly basis?
And are these dividends distributed yearly from the date the bond etf is purchased? Or are they pro-rated somehow? Also do the dividends fluctuate with bons etf price?

I’m coming up on one year of working in consulting post under grad in a financial services vertical. I know I want to transition to corporate strategy down the road, but don’t have much interest in financial service strategy.

I want to avoid getting pigeonholed into FS, but with COVID, don’t want to leave.
