31. Swinging through the Corporate Jungle ft. Cordell Carmody & Vivien Leung

Is it a plane? Is it a bird? No, it's an overworked, underpaid, caffeinated corporate worker leaving their 60 story building on the way to their next client meeting. We had the absolute pleasure of being joined by our boss af friends, Cordell and Vivien, who are years deep into their careers at a Big 4 & Tech firm and have kindly shared their experiences swinging through the corporate jungle. In this episode, we delve into the intricacies of finding value in your work through experience, networking and actively seeking new opportunities. Stick around long enough, and you'll get to hear some juicy corporate horror stories, including and not limited to a $2 million embezzlement scandal 👀.
