Why didn’t 300k soldiers stand up and fight the Taliban at all? Like literally they almost all just surrendered immediately. I’m almost thinking that the Afghanistan army already cut a deal with Taliban since the States decided to pull out of Afghanistan

What is a consulting services manager’s compensation in NJ?

Hi Fishes,

I want to switch to another Company but I want to know that what salary range Market is Giving for 2+ years job seekers. I have 2.2 years of Experience on SAP C4C and also have good understanding and hands-on experience of SAP CDC.

Thanks in advance🙂

I’ve noticed on Glassdoor, salaries for my level (Director) are higher than my base but have similar bonus opportunity. At what level of pay gap would you push or make a stink? In hindsight I should have pushed more during the hiring process. At 160k base now, seeing ranges in the 170s to low 180s. These are specific to my current company.

I’m interviewing at Google’s Treasury team. The role would be as a rates analyst managing their portfolio - primarily cash and short duration fixed income products (100bn aum). TC: ~150k, not sure of breakdown.

I currently work as a quant/middle office at a very well reputed mutual fund, but this is not a market facing role. TC: 125k, but they have a very generous profit sharing plan that contributes 25% of my pay to retirement accts if I stay for 6 years, so ~160k?

Any thoughts?

What were some circumstances where you have had to to let go of an internal company offer after accepting it?

I am going to India for a month. May have to change my return date. Any suggestion on what insurance/other option to reduce the ticket update cost impact.

What according to your experience during interviews has been one thing that you said or did made you get the job over 1000s of other applicants for a job, according to you? What is that one thing that made a difference and set you apart?

Just asking to learn from experiences.

Hi Fishes,
Please suggest if I can negotitate based on below number:

Company A -
9.6 fixed 1.6 variable 1.3 Joining bonus
CTC - 11.2 + JB

Company B -
10.91 Fixed
1.1 Variable
No JB

CTC - 12.55 (including annual Benefits)

I’m inclined to join Company A. Would they consider for negotiations?

Current CTC 6.25
Exp - 3.5 yrs

Second year associate here. How should I deal with the one partner in my practice group who seems to exclusively give me lousy assignments that we’ll never get paid for? I get great work from everyone else.

Dumb question.. what’s the proper etiquette for when you get a job through a recruiter who reached out to you first? A simple thank you email, a Starbucks gift card, etc?

I just hit my lean fire number but am hesitating to pull the trigger, so was hoping to run it by people smarter than me:

- I have a few rentals that bring in ~$1800/mo cash flow, taxes are negligible, Capex incl.
- My paper assets will bring in ~$1200/mo at 3% draw
- I get free Healthcare at the VA
- No plans on kids
- My expenses haven't topped $30k/yr ever
- I could always reenter the workforce if needed (albeit probably not in consulting)

Please point out the flaws here, what am I missing?

Do you support Biden’a potential tax plan? Why or why not?

🗣Lock Him Up!!! Throw away the Key!!!

Anyone read the changing world order by Ray Dalio? His thoughts on where the US is headed have me very concerned, specifically how it seems more and more likely neither side is going to accept defeat in 2024. What happens then? Hopefully not legitimate armed conflict.

Chris Wallace needs a taser

NYT now has GA tilting towards Biden...

Who was the best President in the modern US history? Someone asked me this question and I didn’t have an answer

Trump supporters and republican voters! I’d like to hear your reasons/motives for voting Trump for president. No judgement here and please keep comments civil 😀

Biggest winner last night, Green Party.

Thoughts on states taxing student loan forgiveness as income ? I admit I don’t know much about tax law but I feel like it shouldn’t be considered income unless they’re sending out checks to everyone. 10k off the balance of my loan shouldn’t be considered income.

If Fauci and Birx say it’s safe to vote in person, why is mail in voting so important to be rushed? Not talking absentee ballots that has a chain of custody. Georgia said over 1,000 people voted 2x in their primaries.
