At what point, if any point at all, do you leave your company to pursue a side hustle full time? Or do you continue to work both the day job and the side hustle?

currently working both day job and side hustle. side business only making $30k a year rn so financially can’t quit my day job

I'd say when your side hustle is ~75% of your day job comp and you see a clear path to scaling the side hustle.

When you want to…? Consider if it’s likely to make enough and if you’ll enjoy doing it full time.

Check and see if your firm has outside activities limitations

Would love some advice / thoughts. I went straight from law school to a corporate legal department in house for an asset manager. They like “home grown” talent and I “be worked hard and risen relatively quickly (AGC in 9 years). I work hard and get a lot of complicated deals done (structured products and private funds). I can’t shake certain people (in compliance department mainly) thinking I don’t have enough experience to do what I do because I didn’t come from a law firm. Any advice?

Hi all, I’d love to hear from PR/Comms folks about the process of transitioning from agency to an in-house role. What kind of chance does a PR pro with ~7 years of solid experience across CPG and hospitality brands, including a mix of global agency work and smaller boutique firms, have at going in house? Do you typically need more experience before going in house? Would be great to hear about various experiences from those that have made the transition. Thanks!
