Been trying to break into climate tech startups (I originally wanted to be in IB but we know how that goes) for quite some time... I Received an offer at BofA as a senior auditor, which is even further from my career goals, but it pays about double what I make now. Should I take it or keep applying to jobs? Having 1-2 years of BofA on the resume would help me for the next job and I could really use the salary bump, but I’ll miss being fully remote and audit sounds miserable

If I was offered a job making double what I'm making now, I'd scarf it up in a heartbeat - especially in this economy! You can continue looking once you've switched, but you'll be much more comfortable financially while doing so, AND you'll have an even better starting point when you do finally get that offer.

In this economy, I would take it. It's getting harder to find fully remote roles, unfortunately, and regardless as you said it's great experience and great pay.

Give it a try. It's a good opportunity considering our current economic situation. You can keep looking if you don't like the role.

Thoughts on becoming a "Growth & New Initiatives PM"?

I was a regular PM managing my own vertical and now have the opportunity for a new role in the org. No promo or cash related, just jurisdiction wise.

I'd be focusing on:
For old product-
-Free Trial
-automation
For new product-
-Building out from scratch
-UI/UX related user feedback
-sales and marketing focus
-use cases and features

Is this a good move career wise? Love being a PM and looking to grow.
Prefer new product > old

Hey! I've always wanted to get into IB (prestige, money, you name it), however now that I'm in a more laid back environment (better WLB, "easier work") it doesn't seem as attractive as before and the pay is quite good for an analyst level (I think the pay is competitive even comparing with IB's pay in my country) . I wanted to know if anyone had the same experience and what were your thoughts (pursue an MBA and leave your comfort zone and "good pay" or just stick with it). TIA!
