Hey fishes. I have been offered Management Consultant role with CTC break up in terms of JB, RB, fixed and variable.

How's inflation and cost of living in Texas this year and any predictions moving forward? With the recession looming or already here I'd like to relocate to somewhere cheaper (currently in Seattle), but only if it's going to stay that way.

Relocating to NYC. Lived in crappy FiDi, Gramercy and UES apartments at beginning of my career. I have been away from NY for a good while and would like to know what’s the downside of living in Jersey City? Now that I am able to afford Manhattan, the price and space you get in JC is weirdly becoming appealing. Thoughts on the location? Will likely be working from home 3 to 4 days a week.

What do you wish you had known before becoming a manager?

Hello fishes. I'm an MBA graduate currently working as a digital marketing professional in a mid size consulting firm with 3 years of experience.
I am terribly underpaid in my current org at 5.5 LPA after a recent promotion and annual appraisal. Another mid size consulting firm offered me 7.5 LPA but I am asking them around 9 LPA.
Am I asking too much or shall I take the offer of 7.5 LPA?

Thank you

Rental property managers in ALX

Hi! I am preparing to rent out my condo in Alexandria (off edsall road) in the spring. Anyone have any tips for first time landlords? I’m planning to work with a rental mgmt company that has 3 properties in my complex. They’ll charge 1 month rent for the marketing and 7.9% mgmt fee. I am moving to a lower COLA and don’t mind paying for the mgmt, but I haven’t found a good cash flow calculator to forecast taxes, etc. Any guidance would be appreciated! Thanks.
