Why?

Honestly, it was a great time to lateral. Multiple offers, all above my MBB comp. You just have to find the right firms

like

Nope not going to the MBBs for tech work. They packed six roles into one job description and are offering the salary of one. Plus they are clueless with AI offerings and have a small bunch of snobs who were RIF’d from big tech. That’s another thing - working with the big tech devs means putting up with their “oh back in Meta we did this and this”. Naah bro - Meta just burned $80B in a garbage product that was being used by few dozen users mostly their own employees. Others value money more than big tech

Depends on where you’re going

In the implementation space you’ll always be safe. Plus I tend to reject LIFO theory for the most part, they layoff expensive and low performing tenured people before new guys, damages rep with headhunters and staffing agencies and hurts pipeline

I’m in tech and managed to land interviews for an M&A tech advisory SM. I have 5 YOE and left consulting as an analyst. The market isn’t that bad.

Is it because LIFO the second things fall off a cliff?

Yes, its time to started covering your ass.

Just get through this year with a job.

If you enter the job market right now you may not find yourself another job for another year if we raise rates in this economy.

Moving to a new firm to try and grab another 10 to 15k right now could put you in a huge income hole.
