It's a very common first role in a company for someone exiting public at the staff level, sometimes senior level. If the company is a good one, you like the people, and pay and benefits are acceptable to you, go for it and work hard and take on new responsibilities so you can move up

Would a staff 2 up for promotion and a senior with one year of experience appear equally qualified for a analyst position?

I’d say this is an important enough decision to do your own due diligence for. Unless you tell us the name of the company, let us talk with the FR dept there, and tell us your goals, you will know better.

I will be doing my due diligence. I just wanted some general insight on the position itself.

Hi Everyone - I was hoping someone could throw some light on the kind of work trust and safety does. I see a lot of open roles - managers, senior strategists etc. I have a top 20 MBA and about 8 years of big 4 experience in consulting - would this be the right kind of role to get into? Or is it more engineering?

Hi peeps!
Got two offers on the table, who love to hear your advice!

- Finance Business Partner for a late stage (Series D/valuation 3B) startup tech company

The tech job pays 15k more, but from what I can see will be a cluster and super long hours (has EU stakeholders). Maybe a pipe dream, but I want to have a "somewhat" decent wlb while still growing my career toward strategy and finance.

Thoughts on which one is better?
