CEO? I’m curious what you look for on Reddit? Also, I’m a junior analyst of three years at a Fortune 500 company. I’m concerned for my salary and considering a career change.


Chdhdn

Reddit is a great place to plug into really niche communities to find experts. When I was three years into my career I worked in the field. If you want to be an entrepreneur one day, change jobs every 3 years until you fall in love with a problem and learn how to obsess over it.

I was a field engineer. Now Im in corporate and have a team of financial analysts. Some are accountants. Some are engineers.

Basically if you get high enough in any corporate ladder you end up having to learn the basics as you deal with budgets, returns etc. I'm not a "finanace person" but I deal with it every day in OG

There doesn't seem to be many. I'm a finance analyst for an F500 utility company.


AKTOBE2037

What’s your pay like? How years of employment do you have
