Fun but New York is expensive by all means

New York life. Like the insurance company

Assuming you’re talking about salaried/HO positions and not being an agent. If you’re looking for solid WLB and a friendly, collegial culture (an internal saying speaking to their culture is “we represent Main St not Wall St”) - it’s a great firm.

If you’re looking for rapid career growth and high earnings potential - not a great option.

Not sure your experience level, but if possible I would recommend joining as a VP/executive officer or higher. Next to impossible to make VP as a junior internal hire there without being willing to wait 20 years and go through a dozen lateral moves.

Thanks P1. What is the expected YOE to join as a VP coming from consulting?

I’ve heard hours are amazing. But it’s hard to advance (at least in terms of meaningful level and comp promotions) and people are YMMV.

I mean my knowledge is all anecdotal from friends there but i don’t think the exit ops are very good. Maybe if you’re in something transferable like strat or innovative solutioning.

IMO if you can get a good $200-300k comp there, it could be worth it to just put in your 9-5 and live your life.

But i don’t think it’s a great place early in your career and your odds of getting to a decent comp are not great as it’s all based on available positions.

Lot of WLB.

What happens if I decide to take a full scope or be willing but after I join the company or project I get cold feet and decide not to? Do I just get let go or have dire consequences? I am being pushed by recruiter to get a FS but I am not sure. The backlog is huge though so maybe I throw the dice and learn a lot then leave before I need to if at that point I am not 100% in it?

Thanks

I’m currently a tax accountant with 5 YOE. I want to move into a business analyst role I’ve applied for entry level positions (competition is wild) and willing to get certs.
