I’m not sure if billionaire status is in my future, but financial independence and power certainly are. The more women who climb the executive ranks, the more we’ll see this wealth gap close over time.

13.4% is frustratingly low. More women in leadership could definitely help shift those numbers over time. As for me, billionaire status isn’t exactly on my radar either, but I definitely wouldn't say no either haha. What do you think needs to change to even the playing field?

We need more women entrepreneurs.
Getting to self made $B status requires risk taking, luck, and proximity to VCs or celebrity.

Sandburg and Meyer got in early with unicorn startups.

This is a lot higher than it was when I last looked a decade ago.

Most people don’t climb a corporate ladder to get to billionaire. It comes from launching a business if not inherited or celebrity.

We need more women entrepreneurs.

Billionaires don't really climb corporate ladders, they tend to either inherit generational wealth, make it in show business, or they're involved with some entrepreneurial endeavor. I always remember the adage, behind every great fortune there is a crime. I think perhaps men are just more likely to engage in behavior that accumulates great wealth. And to be honest, I'm not sure I'd even want to root for people to become billionaires.

Nope will never hit that list working in a corporation owned by someone else

Anyone leave before their bonus (before knowing what the amount was) and then regret it when it turned out to be a huge bonus? Got a great offer that I want to take but feeling FOMO by leaving the bonus on the table.

And yes, I tried moving the start date and asking them to cover the lost bonus but they said no and it’s still a better offer and it would be irresponsible not to take it.

Need career advice. Trying to break into a finance role, preferably an Analsyt role but I have no transferable experience. I worked as a mortgage loan officer (which is sales) for 2 years after college, but since mortgage is such a niche industry, no hard skills transfer and have no relevant undergrad internships unfortunately. I know I can essentially get any sales job I want in finance IE: financial advisor etc. but don’t want to be stuck in sales forever. Any advice?

Hey All - Can we agree to make a collective effort to reduce the repeat content here? Things are moving quickly and we don’t always have time to check, but having 2-4x of the same link/tweet/topic splits any convo and exhausts interest in engaging multiple topics bc new ones are hard to find.

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer. We have a wide variety of needs but don’t necessarily need to have this future person have all these skills. For example we need someone with great copywriting skills and also need someone who is great at digital marketing. This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.

Please who knows about the advisory practice within the PwC financial crime unit (Canada Acceleration Centre)? I understand it is a client non-facing advisory role. Would it be a good career decision for someone coming from GRC firms like Kroll, Control Risk or Exiger? I am concerned about the negative reviews relating to the PwC acceleration centres in general, and getting stuck in a role which does not provide growth opportunities. Thank you.
