I can refer you to CohnReznick. Busy season(s) is demanding with hours but the firm is fully supportive of the remote environment. It seems to work out well for most as long as you are actually working and have enough self discipline to not slack off. DM if you want to chat

Advisory has no busy season and pays better

My 2nd busy season went smoother than my 1st. Hope that brings some peace of mind.

First busy season?

I am currently a year from finishing my PhD and was looking at VC's as a career path because I like to do meta-analysis of different climate change techs. I networked with VCs and one of them was receptive but didn't have the budget currently for a full time hire. They said they'd be interested in working with me to do a research paper over the coming semester, and was wondering if I could leverage this into a full time offer?

Is a white paper with a VC going to be attractive on my CV?

I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

While I am trying to switch to other companies, I’m not able to reveal the real reason from my side for the job change, as if I say, it’s because of layoff fears than it’ll reduce my negotiation power.

What other reasons can I give as I’ve just completed 9 months here and it’s too soon for any other company to take me in.
