Been working in strategy at the NBA and feel like I am severely underpaid. I haven’t been here for long and the work is really interesting, but now am considering jumping to a pure tech firm or target MBB. Is it worth making the switch now, or should I stick it out awhile longer to exit at a higher level? For reference, I have 4 YOE, majority working in corp dev at Disney. Also am kinda nervous that the NBA will pigeon hole me into sports related roles, but please correct me if I’m wrong.

NBA is prestigious. Getting into these roles for sports is harder than MBB and they pay you shittier.

What kinda work do you do there and what is comp for 4 YOE? I heard Disney Corp dev is a slave shop but has good rep in terms of talent in the group

Don’t want to get too specific on responsibilities, but comp at Disney was roughly 120k and NBA is about the same

It's an experienced hire for an SC role. I saw the posting is still open atm, and my guess is that the recruiting team is comparing candidates since competition is higher due to recent layoffs.
