Thoughts on a financial analyst role but scope is focused on just doing commission plans? Is this good experience for the fp&a realm?

Feels a bit too specialized. But you could use it as a stepping stone to go into BU/Corp FP&A by using the opportunity to learn about financial modeling/analysis. I wouldn't want to do commissions FP&A forever though.

I feel like most exit ops from strategy would be S&O industry roles but still can’t get these MBB firms out of my mind. Am I just overthinking this?

Hi,

Just started a new job less than a month ago in the tech sector. It was the industry I was fixated on when leaving for. However I realise that I don't think I can cope with the fast paced, lack of wlb, with no support - it's really impacting my mental health already....

I try to hide it from my boyfriend, but its impact is flowing into my personal life.
I feel like a failure, but recognise it might be beneficial to cut loss and quit. Has anyone been in this situation?

Any advice?
