Are LTIPs worth it? Or is it a gimmick?

Depends

You'd need to be more specific about the plan and the alternative to know. LTIP = long term incentive plan and can be anything from company stock/stock options (real or phantom) to deferred cash or other things.

Whether it's worth it would depend on the vehicle and payout conditions (time based, performance based, etc.) and the likelihood of meeting those conditions compared to whatever alternative you have. If the choice is "take the LTIP or don't take it", that's much more straightforward than "take LTIP vs short term incentives" bc of the conditions usually attached to LTIP.

Well compared to no LTIP probably worth it but you'd have to decide how much value you see in it as a retention tool

Hey everyone - I could do with some advice. Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I am having a hard time getting interview calls. I am trying to pivot from consulting to the industry and targeting project/program management roles. I have been doing this work for 7+ years now (total YOE 12 years) so certainly have the right skillset. I have tried a couple of referrals too but that didn’t help either. Any advice you guys could provide would be helpful. Thanks!

Should I leave my first permanent job as a team leader of 4 DPs in a FMCG business (only been there for 4 months) to join a huge Tech business for a 12months contract?

They offer me 60% more money than my permanent role. Circa 2000 dollars every month in my pocket

However, I am worried if I accept the tech role and I do not become permanent I will be looking again for a job in 12-24 months and my CV won't be showing a managerial position. Won't be showing any progress.
