Tech is different in that the "product" is often code or design, so if you're trying to equate it to banking those teams are your FO. The rest of the employees are support for the company, but the structures are so flat and lean that you often have way more direct exposure to leadership and lots of ownership in the non-tech roles.

I wouldn't call banking finance folks "back office" unless they run the books for the BO- most of the CFO-org people in banking run right along-side the execs they support. As for Google/tech in general, many companies historically have held engineers above all else- but that's changing as they become more corporate. I can tell you I'm in the Finance org and we sit the closest to the C-Suite offices.

I’m currently in the process of being converted from contractor to permanent. In my initial conversations I was under the impression that I was in a different pay grade and asked for a salary 25k higher than the max allotted for my position. I feel like it gave the impression that I don’t know what I’m doing. Any suggestion how I can recover from this?

Cold applied for an awesome role, had an interview with hiring manager, recruiter, and given a pretty hefty assignment that I’m really proud of nailing. They followed up with an email asking for 4-5 days that I am available for a full day of interviews. Gave them 4-5 days, started planning for how I’d get those days off work during insane times at current job, and now not a single word from them to confirm a date. Been over a week now. Sad. Pretty jaded. What can I do? Already followed up

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?
