You make your own path. You can
1. Exit and start your own venture
2. Exit to a startup where you are among the top 5-10 inner circle of CEO
3. Exit to a startup where they are developing new business line / core business expansion and you are given the opportunity to lead it
4. Exit to established tech / industry where you want your own startup be eventually and build that network of connection in that sphere
5. Exit to VC to understand how a startup is being evaluated for fundings etc, over different phases of startup

I’m currently an AE and was offered a promotion to sales manager. I’ve been waiting for this next step but the offer only provides a 5% raise over what I currently make. We had several manger seats open and I know external people we hired received an offer atleast 20-30% more than I did.
I’m currently trying to negotiate but there doesn’t seem like there’s willingness to do so from our hiring team. Should I decline? Should I leave? Should I accept and start looking elsewhere?

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good?
