Two completely different things - industry yes, PE ops no

Not necessarily, depending on the industry you exit to

Mind if I DM?

5YOE is likely insufficient to land at a director or above role so i would expect to take a hit to pay

Typically 10, but it depends on many factors

I exited to industry and took a pay cut.

What comp range?

What comp range are you targetting?

I make 200-260k now with bonus. But would trade off for wlb

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all. I personally don’t see too many issues working at either Amazon or Facebook because I work at Deloitte where I’m sure we have many questionable clients and worked in financial services before. Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?

Anyone else feel like Chicago has very limited "upward" exit options, especially for tech? It seems like outside of consulting, most people who earn a higher incomes are in trading/banking/PE 😕

If you decide to move down a level in your next role, for learning purposes and for more wlb, is that frowned upon by future employers and looks bad on your resume? I've been think about it but haven't pulled the trigger. Also fear that getting a lower level job will be tough if they see me as 'over-qualified'. For context, this would be going from a director role to a SM or Manager role.
