Focusing on immediate comp bumps is short sighted. Long term - highest average earning potential would be jumping to IB ASAP and sneaking into PE later. Extremely challenging transition to navigate but it’s possible. Staying in accounting, going for big 4 partner on average is about as lucrative a position as you can hope for, outside of finding the right cfo role with a strong equity comp package

Hi Guys,

Received offer from Fidelity investment. They mentioned “services are liable to be terminated during or at the expiry of probation or extended period of probation “ there’s no positive term as confirmation.

How about job security at Fidelity?

Also do they pay variable pay as promised?

If anyone know about this company please share your thoughts

Have you ever walked out of a job with no notice?

Dilemma… I left my old company 4 months ago. Today, they’ve reached out to me to ask me to come back at a higher role, Operations Manager. I would’ve jumped on this opportunity if they asked me before. However, this role would be hybrid (2x in office) and come along with more responsibilities and hours than my current WFH role which is very chill. The pay is only 15% more than I currently make. Any thoughts?
