Seeing a lot of senior talent in this bowl looking to jump from 'legacy' fintech to pre-IPO giants. If you’re making the move to a name like Stripe or OpenAI, does it make more sense to wait for your RSU grant to vest over 4 years, or to grab a discounted secondary allocation now to lock in the '2026 entry price' before the S-1 drops??

McKinsey 🐟: does your ops practice heavily prefer people with practical experience instead of current operations consultants from other firms? As an ops consultant from another firm, what would be the best way to lateral into mck ops?

I just did my pre-licencing certification and passed my CA state exam for property and casualty. No I have no idea what to do or where to start my career as an insurance agent since I have no experience in the real world, just lots of knowledge. Please help!

I would like to hit fire between 40-50. Currently 27, 185k total comp (125 for me and 60 for partner). Like my job don’t hate it don’t love it. Does an MBA make sense? I’m guessing it could take me to 170ish with that schools I’m looking at but wondering if the 40-50 retirement range makes an mba not make sense since I’d only have 10-20 years to save vs 12-22.

Would have to finance the whole thing myself. Current net worth is 140k. Thoughts?

Any software developer here who is going for executive MBA here? Have some doubts to clarify!
TIA

So I have a meeting with a company tomorrow to get their official offer to be a BDR. It’s a tech company in PA, relatively LCOL area, their revenue is around $3-5 million a year.

Welcoming anyone from Project Delivery or who would like to learn more about the PDM track. Spread the word.

Recently joined the firm as a project delivery specialist. During recruiting, the team harped on how great my background was and how much a good fit I would be for the firm/project...

Well, I was on an onboarding call and they were talking about staffing and projects. The presenter said to reach out to them if you don’t think your project is a good fit. In his words “you were hired into the firm, not a specific project. We see you here long term... With the exception of PDM model” 😅
Cont.

For your resume and LinkedIn, do you prefer to use ‘Project Delivery Specialist/Manager’ or a more recognizable title, such as ‘Project Manager’ or ‘Program Manager’

Anyone have any connection at a FinTech looking for people in strategic partnerships or biz ops?

Does anyone have entry level marketing tech roles?

I’m a CFP® and work as a test engineer for financial planning software. I’m pretty new to the tech space, and wondering what jobs might be out there in the fintech space as I gain more software knowledge. It’s kind of niche working in financial planning software as my background is financial planning. What kind of jobs are out there that might translate well and would have good earning potential?

I see different thoughts about online certifications and boot camps if you don’t have experience. Any thoughts? Also what’s the best way to break into tech?

Has anyone here worked at or worked with CMS Payments Intelligence (CMSPI)? I was contacted by a recruiter for a position there and have a first interview on Monday.

Where and how to start?

Working as a Senior Finance Manager in UAE with all finance managers from middle East and India reporting to me, 20+ years of experience in consolidation & reporting with a CPA from USA and CIMA from UK... What positions can I look to apply for in USA ? How much estimated money can I expect in the states ?

I have just recently accepted a position as Director of Compliance at a Fin-Tech company here in Naples, FL.. My previous 17 YOE were strictly in the Financial industry. Does anyone know what the average salary is for this position? I have a sinking feeling that I accepted the role too quickly without comparing salaries. The position only pays $50k/year. That seems low to me.

Has anyone in your company heard the word (cross-connect) or (leased Line) perhaps you have heard this from the network team at your financial institution?

Is coinbase remote or in office?

Anyone at Stripe willing to refer? I’m applying for Program Manager, Talent & Careers Programs.
