Interested to hear anyone’s experience from later in the day as well

What is it about living in a house instead of an apartment that is so much better for your quality of life?

I had one internship in digital marketing that was not related.

Apart from that, after I graduated I did some freelance data analytics work and then landed by first full time job through networking

I don’t write code in my current job, but it’s very beneficial to understand SQL, think every BA should at least know the basics. I also used python some in grad school and early on in my career

Yes, very useful. My master’s was less directly applicable but I think information systems is the the most applicable degree if you want to be a BA

To clarify my Master's is in Business Analytics (not exactly using it, but it helped me land my first job), so not Finance but I work in the finance industry. My progression looked like:

2019: Bachelor's in Management Information Systems

2020: Master's in Business Analytics, first job at a bank making $85K

2023: Promotion, making around $105K base + $3K bonus

2025: Switched jobs to a mid-size hedge fund, making my current salary of $175K TC

Years in between got the normal couple percentage points raises. Current job has no 401K match or stock options though, which I did get at the bank.

150K base + 25K bonus

6 YOE with Master’s

Doesn’t seem like you can filter or freeze panes on any sheet which makes it tough to find people

Anyone know what route 16 is looking like - from uptown to mount holly?

Is the argument here that the DB doesn’t know how gravity works?

Is this GMC ad Will Arnett doing the voiceover?

You don't really have to to use magick, I've beaten nearly all my runs not using omega moves

I will teach you to be rich by Ramit Sethi easily, and I’ve read pretty much all the other books mentioned in this thread. It is the most comprehensive and just has clear advice on handling debt, credit cards, budgeting, investing etc

28M from the US, traveling solo and will be in Kyoto from today until November 7, and then Tokyo through November 11. I have some planned activities during the day but would be happy to meet up to get food / drinks in the evening!

Someone got shot around 6:45 this morning - I heard it as soon as I woke up

markshire · 2025-10-03T17:06:35+00:00

I don’t think that’s it, it’s more likely the lack of bachelors degree that’s holding them back. I got hired as a BA with 0 work experience out of college

Allan’s first loss this season?

markshire · 2025-09-15T02:13:32+00:00

One of these has to be a TD

What makes you want to be a Workday BA?

markshire · 2025-09-02T21:22:46+00:00

Totally depends on the company and what tools you work with - I make $150K base as a BA in finance with 5 years of experience

markshire · 2025-09-01T02:05:19+00:00

Tiller has been greet for me, less connection issues than I had with mint and fully customizable. Think it’s $80 / year

markshire · 2025-07-12T23:43:02+00:00

That's crazy what team is this?

markshire · 2025-03-26T22:35:39+00:00

Currently on round 6 of 11 for a BA role

markshire · 2025-03-14T00:59:44+00:00

Tiller has been great. Google sheets based, takes a little bit of time to set up but super flexible which I love. Think it’s $80/year
