Was incredibly lowballed by them a few years back...less than a junior salary for a mid role. Made me worried they didn't know how to handle $. Take that with a grain of salt ofc.

I just changed my role to project management...I start to hate this when I'm doing the detailed plans. I have never been a detailed oriented person and it takes too much of my mental energy when working on very details. I guess I'm happy about the change I made but still need to find something I want to do in long run.
