Fractional CMOs: Is it a goldmine, or repackaged freelancing?

I see a lot of former Directors updating their LinkedIn to "Fractional CMO." It sounds incredibly lucrative to charge 3 companies $5k/month for high-level strategy. But for those actually doing it—after self-employment taxes, health insurance, and the constant hustle for the next client, does it actually beat a $140k W2 salary?

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Question about remote job negotiations

I'm currently interviewing for a remote role for a company based in NY.

The thing is I'm based in a different city (southern U.S.)

My question is:

When it comes time to talk compensation, should I base the market rate for the role on my city of residence or NY?

Would it make sense to ask them directly how they determine comp for NY-bases vs. other city-based employees?

Anyone have experience with this?
