Alright QOTD: How are you paying back your loans? PSLF or working for Private Firms and Paying your loans back yourself? Which choice do you think is better. I have 5 years left of PSLF and I cannot wait for the day that this loan is gone.

Folks that got a prenup. How and where did you get it? We have spoken to a couple of lawyers and it simply seems to be a back and forth they want to do to rack up billable hours/complicate the issue. My SO and I pretty much know what we want. We are doing it mainly to protect my SOs inheritance. Looking for the simplest way to execute this. TIA for any advice.

Saw a post on LinkedIn about not citing inflation as a reason to ask for a raise?! Feels like inflation is a perfectly valid reason to be asking for a raise, no?

Hi fishes, can you guys pls suggest any companies who are willing to give work from anywhere opportunity?

Thinking of switching employers. Do you think bigger retail stores (the ones that have several locations) are easier or harder to work at than little hole-in-the-wall grocery stores (which is all I've ever done)? It seems like the larger chain stores would have more downtime, but I'm wondering if anyone could give some input.

For remote folks: am I more likely to find a remote role that allows me to move around multiple times during my tenure at a big FAANG-like company, or a startup? what are things I should look out for in my search?

Hey guys who are some of your M&A clients? I’m trying to figure out what stocks to buy.

Thoughts on analyst to associate promote in IB?

Left IBD to quickly - VP1 opps?

Long story short - was lured into an opportunity to do BD for a large PE PortCo… better work/life balance, but honestly miss the deal cycle.

Anyone know of open VP1 opps right now?

Quick background - former MM banker (think Raymond James, Piper Sandler size) doing FinTech and Asset Management within FIG, but also open to other sectors.

Thanks!

Late stage analyst 1 at a mid-market heavy TMT focused M&A boutique in London. Keen to increase exit opps and realise it may be worth trying to lateral to a BB / name brand. Any opinions / advice on achievability? If low, what’s the best move here.

Looks like some bonus numbers are coming out for bankers, would appreciate any insights!

I am going to speak with a recruiter at Houlihan Lokey TMT in LA. I would like to know more about the group and its culture. Would love to connect and network🙏

Economy is shrinking folks - just got my IBD interview cancelled due to hiring needs “changing”… I will continue to prepare and be ready for the next opportunity.

Closing in on a corp dev offer. I work at a boutique (~10 ppl) where the analysts/associates carry a lot of weight during deals. What is the longest i could push my potential start date back to for this new role? I don’t wanna leave while i’m in the middle of a bunch of things and screw over my current firm. They’ve been good to me

Any recommendations on brushing up on PowerPoint?

I want to be a client instead of an investment banker. Where do I sign up?

DB ECM - does anyone have a view?

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.

What does the branch transfer process look like for UBS? I'm wanting to transfer from my current office to one closer to home.

I have a meeting with a CEO of a start-up IB. She is meeting to help guide me in the industry (not just a job interview). What questions would you ask?
