How’d you know 😮

If you want to become partner, stay in consulting. If you don't care to be a partner, then this is a great exit.

Particularly great at FB since they’ve done some great M&A work over the years.

Amazon, while in many ways a more impressive and impactful firm, doesn’t have any absolute mega wins like Instagram or WhatsApp

Also to op- go to tech and never look back! You will love it and your wallet will thank you as well. I’m returning to tech shortly and can’t wait !

working for deloitte this summer in their gps consulting practice in the dmv. Unfortunately, due to some difficult family circumstances, I believe I’ll have to move back home to Miami after college. If I do receive a return offer, is there any chance I can ask for it to be remote/be moved to the miami office? Should I make that clear to my superiors before offers are given out or will that hamper my chances at getting an offer in the first place? Thanks for the help

Is there a point to buying back calls you sold early if they are insanely OTM? Fake example) Sold a PLTR 4/16 $35 strike call for 10 cents, now its worth 1 cent. I read about people buying calls back before expiry if they reach 50% or more of the gains but in this case it wouldn’t make sense right?

*calling big Pharma professionals* my friend wanted me to hop on and ask about a salary that she has received working as a quality insurance coordinator for one of the top 15 pharmaceutical companies. She is making 65,000 Canadian and that would narrow down to 50,000 USD, she wanted some insight on how much quality assurance or regulatory affairs associates or other levels make? Also is she being underpaid or is that the current market rate at the moment. Thanks in advance

Should I renege offer from MBB?

An MBA recent grad. I signed with MBB last year. However, I have always wanted to do tech PM. I couldn’t find PM job in Fall and just signed MBB offer I have. I recently got an FAANG offer. It’s PM function, hard to break in with consulting experience. I declined the new offer during interview stage and again after they gave me initial offer, but it is coming back with 80k more in annual compensation. It made me so torn!! Should I renege MBB offer?
