This questions been asked so many times. You have people who have no problem with it and will do it. You have people that actively manage both jobs at the same time. Then you have the people who gasp that anybody even thinks about this, complain about contracts, complain about laws/IRS blah blah blah.

Depends what you’re comfortable with and how much risk you’re willing to accept

No because I don't have 120-140 hours a week to do two of my job

Just about, yup. And my average week is probably 50+ but that's only because of the occasional bits of beach time. When on a project I can fully expect 60 hour weeks to be quite normal.

Could be tricky…what if meetings conflict?

Only in about 3 meetings a week, I feel like I could make it work. Just a little nervous about it.

I encourage you to do it

How do you explain to future employers when they do background check?

How are you thinking they’re going to find out you had 2 jobs? Don’t list one on our resume.
