3 YOE w/ non MBA STEM masters + deep knowledge in a specific industry (w/ publications, etc). I have had recruiters and headhunters reaching out for everything from:
- FAANG BA (generalist)
- VC associate (generalist)
- director level roles at startups/ digital arms of F500 companies
- data scientist roles at hedge funds and F100 companies

What should an exit with this level of experience look like? I'm a bit surprised at the wide range of options and roles - some seem to be a bit of a stretch.

Good rule of thumb is if it sounds too good to be true, there’s probably a catch

I'd say the catch is it's not a particularly interesting role or it's client/ customer facing. Haven't seen anything I'm dying to leave for, but also don't want to pass up a good opportunity.

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?

13 yr outside Sales Experience in the B2B space, multiple roles/companies. Current quota is $15MCAD, I usually do not bad in quota but lately has shifted to rewarding medicorciy and "pooling" some numbers countrywide which i really dont like.
Current comp is $85k Base and $115 OTE with a ceiling of $150k CAD/$120k US. Feel it's too little for my experience and they are taking perks away by the day.

I’m just having second thoughts as exit opportunities aren’t as prevalent as I thought, the pay/benefits don’t match industry/risk of joint a startup, and I’m not getting the network of a Big4 or MBB
