I signed a FT offer after my summer in NYC but I just received a better one. Is it too late to inform my company that I won't be joining them in July? They already started the training for the SIE exam.
Also, how do you best approach this? (email, call, wording...)

Do what’s best for you, but also realize you’ll be burning a bridge. Everyone burns one or two in their career, if you’re early on you’ll be fine.
We had a kid renege in his offer the day he was supposed to show up to training with everyone in NY. Everyone thought it was bizarre at the time but I can guarantee no one cares two years later.
Lol that’s just funny tho
How much better? Is it really worth it?
If you do... do not under any circumstance disclose the name of the firm you are leaving them for. You can lose both offers. I've seen it happen before and it ain't pretty.
Congrats I hit ur profile on accident and saw I commented on some of ur other stuff.
Go wit the better offer but PM if you want any advice. I can try helping write the email and shit or look it over if you want eyeballs.
Basically just say due to personal reasons or some shit you had to go a different direction. Some sht like that
