Someone I know just got hired for a job I applied to with the same background and honestly weaker credentials, and I’m trying really hard not to spiral. I’m happy for them, but it’s that gut-punch feeling of “why not me?” We both interviewed, we both prepped, and I thought I had a stronger shot. I know comparison is a trap, but when the wins aren’t coming, it’s hard not to take it personally. What do you do when you’re proud of someone else but also quietly crushed?

I’m interviewing with a startup and the range has a 40k difference from the lowest to highest point. It’s also pre-seed and comes with equity, and health, 401k benefits. It’s a director of sales role so I would eventually be recruiting and managing a team along with building the processes and strategy. What would you consider a fair compensation package? If they offer me something on the lower end of the range, is it still appropriate to counter with an offer that is over their stated range?

Here is the context: Lately it became very obvious that the company is about to go public when they hired a securities attorney as the new GC.

Let’s settle the “insight” confusion once and for all. What’s your definition?

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .

Has anyone done the Blackstone pymetrics?

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC. Should I stay it out and wait for TC to align or take the promotion and jump ship bc I will likely get paid more elsewhere given how recruiters/other companies eat up hiring recently promoted ppl from other firms?
