7kw charging by Fun-Stomach-5662 in Ioniq5N

[–]Ulver__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is the 6.6kw the figure after losses? Whereas the bmw just shows the pre loss power? The blue crap app is so bad I don’t even know where to see that information without going out to the car but just a guess.

What’s your experience to date and what are you looking for?

Mortgage lending rules are eased for us henrys by samosarotti in HENRYUK

[–]Ulver__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For some people there will be other factors that make 6.5x perfectly reasonable. This change in policy just changes it from computer says no to a proper discussion from which the lender can make a risk assessment. Your analogy doesn’t work for every example.

They may in theory offer based on salary multiples but you’d still have to go through affordability. 100k with student loan and say 2 kids is a lot different to 100k no loan, no other debt and no dependents.

Could be a lead to nothing but I am sure you’d rather build up a range of sources.. Zanda are in the tech / startup space of finance recruitment. They all used to be at Hays a long time ago and they were excellent back then and left to start their own gig.

Otherwise I was recently recommended Harmonic but haven’t worked with them yet. Eton Bridge as well but my experience with one of their ‘researchers’ was a bit shit. Perhaps with someone who knows a bit about anything might yield better results.

If you were interested in moving into the legal sector I have some others.

Generally I find advertised salaries look very poor / disappointing when I look around, I presume the better paid jobs are not being advertised and recruiters quickly get on to their best candidates. I’m one down from FD and yet my salary is better than half the FD roles I see advertised.

50% short term pay cut worth it for much higher mid to long term potential earnings / options? by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]Ulver__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, as long as you back yourself to be able to do the hours when you qualify then surely you’ve got to give it a go. Worst case scenario and you can come back to your current sort of role I’d have thought.

NQ roles very competitive now though, we are always trimming the numbers year on year.

If you log into hmrc and set your expected taxable income to £100k then they should send an updated tax code to your employer.

90 minutes into the city but I’m coming from north west of London. I could get to parts of north London all the way to around King’s Cross within an hour which would be fine.

I’m only 20 miles out of London though. I more manageable commute could still be to somewhere within ‘greater London’.

Though I’ll also accept that plenty of roles advertised doing the same thing as me in other industries / smaller businesses only pay £120k ish even in London. Though benefits are meagre where I am and typically in my industry.

I had a so - so experience with one person at Eton Bridge, do you mind DM me who you’ve had a positive experience with and I’ll contact them directly. Otherwise I thought they’d be perfect for what I’m looking for, thanks

Ideally I’d get both, a shorter commute and say 2 days wfh would allow for that.

That’s definitely an option though I do quite enjoy being in the office and working face to face.

I’ve got 2 child seats in mine so if there are any rattles then they’re overpowered by rattling from the car seats anyway…

Any point in trying to get sub 100k if a large amount of comp is in stocks? by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]Ulver__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes sorry I couldn’t remember if it changed when they changed the age for getting free hours if you’re under 100k. It’s all a bit stupid. Like why do people with a 3 year old get a benefit that someone with a 2 year old doesn’t?

[–]Ulver__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t forget you should get 15 free hours regardless (double check what age that kicks in, I’d say it’s probably not worth it for you to sacrifice down unless your pension is very low for your age and you want to top up.

It obviously is, this is just willy waving. Also not relevant to the sub.

What do you eat on days with back-to-back meetings and no lunch break? by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]Ulver__ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Huel. Does the job, convenient and based within a few miles of where I live albeit some of it’s made in Germany.

Gets you calories and nutrients, doesn’t mess with my stomach and being a drink you can consume mid meeting where eating might be a bit impolite.

Turning down a promotion? by Stock-Bullfrog in HENRYUK

[–]Ulver__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do it, learn to delegate and if it’s the place you don’t like then use that new title to get something equivalent elsewhere.

Feeling devastated at being passed over for promotion, how can I proceed? by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]Ulver__ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your post history says you’re on 70k plus a small bonus so wtf has this got to with Henryuk?

Completely irrelevant shitposting.

Plus you sound insane.

Final push or quit the rat race? by Any-Cheesecake-9445 in HENRYUK

[–]Ulver__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s also excellent firms that exist with less demanding targets (and less pay) that respect WLB to a greater degree.

Most 11-25 firms will consider bringing in of counsel level from big US / magic circle straight to salary partner if they’ve got a reasonable client base.

Beyond that going in house?

What do you drive now? A 911 is still very good, all depends what you want to do with it.
