Does working at a FO in an ops role prevent you from doing ops at large funds / corp strat roles

Family Offices have such a wide range of activities that this is going to heavily depend on your specific firm. For example, I know a family office that takes outside capital and employs a traditional fund structure with longer term holding periods. I would assume that an ops role from there is transferable to traditional funds. Before taking the role, compare the FO to the traditional funds you’re interested in working for long term. If there isn’t much overlap in strategy, then it won’t be a good role to make that move later on

Hi! I have worked in management roles in tech, mainly in analytics, for approximately 10 years. My TC has fluctuated (currently around 135K CAD), but it seems like it's relatively easy to breach the 100K bar, but hard to breach the 150K bar. I now work at the CBC, but I have worked in the private sector too. What is the most realistic way to move to 200K? 1) Continue moving the ladder to a VP position, 2) Switch to Pre-Sale, 3) Switch to Consulting, 4) Work from a U.S. company from Canada.

Anyone else frustrated with the lack of follow through from potential employers? I have had two companies undercut my ability to have an equal chance to compete for a role.

Another company flat out said they couldn’t find my application (in their system where it was attached to job req number) and filled the role.
