Do the C-suite managers from different companies really get along or are they really just competing to try and look better/wealthier than each other?

Low vibrational and low IQ question. Are you really a CFO?

Lol the irony of you calling someone low vibrational and insulting them by implying they have a low IQ immediately after

No, I don't think they get along. After all, business is competitive and why would you want to befriend someone who clearly doesn't have your best interest in mind? Always be wary with extremely friendly C-people!

This is a very black and white question and I don't think anyone can give you the straight answer you're looking for. C-Suite managers can either be friendly with one another, or compete with one another. Both things can be true as well. There are so many cases out there...

I have met C-suite managers who are very friendly out in the open and absolute snakes behind closed doors. Also, I've seen the other type. It's just intimidation tactics, don't fall for them. If you're a CEO, you most likely just want your project to reach its maximum potential, however this may be achieved.

It seems like everyone is in agreement that switching firms gives you a salary boost, but that you could be viewed as someone that doesn’t stick around. Has anyone felt like they got held back from jumping firms every 2-3 years for the salary bump? I know peers that bounced around 2-4 times in a 7 year span and they are making significantly more money than if they stayed at their first job, however it didn’t seem like any of the new companies cared that they bounced around. Other experiences?
