Anyone left PA to CFGI or the Siegfried Group? If so how’s your experience been (pros/cons, differences from PA, and compensation)? Thanks

Both CFGI and Siegfried would be terrible. These are firms with no home grown talent but all former big4 staff who got sold on their pay model. They are loan staffing shops. Stay away would be my advice for long term career growth. The only real exit opp from these firms is coming back to big 4.

Sigfried is a loaned staff model. Cfgi is more of a team based model. If the economy goes south and discretionary spend stops cfgi will get hurt more. I have worked with people from both firms on transaction projects

Following - at first glance CFGI seems like the better spot just because they do less selling to prospective employees. Siegfried is notorious for that

I have limited privacy experience despite being hired for that reason… Have my CIPM and CIPP/US /E and /C. Remote preferred; hubs is pilot with cool intl transfer opportunities. Money isn’t issue.

Hi everyone, I got hired on as entry level sales operations role back in January. It quickly turned into sales, and eventually all the sales for the small company once the head of sales left. I am happy to take on the additional role for my company, and they are going to let me. But they feel that without multiple people in a sales department the title head of sales might not be the best title. I have input in what my updated position title and salary would be. What should I ask for?
