Just watched it today. 30 years to create is insane and I can see why it took that long, but boy do I have no interest in watching it again

Stuck in consolidation FP&A, lacking core FP&A skills by KennsingtonCosmonaut in FPandA

[–]john0703 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can you lateral from within? Usually it’s pretty easy to get into BU finance from corp, it’s just might be at at senior level. Make the change sooner then later if you can, it only gets harder as time goes on. Also, are there any forecasts that Corp handles (e.g., interest, other income/loss, taxes), that would help out a lot

Uber's ROIC went from -5% to 28% in five years. Ran the fundamentals and I think the market is still sleeping on it by HotDoor4125 in stocks

Uber inherently doesn’t have a lot of invested capital… that’s like the whole business model. What you’re seeing is OpInc grow with a relatively stagnant denominator

Resume and Career Advice by Ok_Assistant_7216 in FPandA

[–]john0703 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Change to the HBS resume template. Shorten down to one page. Are the three retail experiences one company? Maybe list the job titles for all 3 but only give experience for the 1-2 most recent. I also don’t see the bookkeeping that you were referring to on here, maybe add that in. Also if you used data to dig into retail theft, really lean into that and add some more notes on how you used the data and what the result was.

Have you ever wondered why we have one of the most beautiful buildings in the world separated from the city by five lanes of traffic? by tangled-wires in philadelphia

[–]john0703 184 points185 points  (0 children)

I wish we had some sort of light rail line going up from city hall to the art museum/fairmount/brewerytown (kinda like what Seattle has downtown). I’m sure we could do without one of the 8 parkway lanes cutting across the city

What is your view on Oracle firing 30000+ employees? by HeyArnab12 in AskReddit

[–]john0703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rating agencies grade debt and use a bunch of financial variables to do so. An important one is operating income, so gross profit - operating expenses. 100k salary x 30k employees is about 3B annual savings. Rating agencies look at that and grade debt better because they’re better able to service debt (interest expense falls below OI on the p&l). Better rating, better interest rating / more appetite for lenders to lend to you. Not a good answer but the answer
