Yeah I used hiring our heroes. Time away from command while transitioning is genuinely useful. I have recommended 3 people use them thus far and all of them have gotten jobs during their transition out of it. Ones to explore:

Hiring our heroes is a good one.
Amazon has apprenticeships.
Salesforce has a fellowship.
Shift does matching too (if you don't have a degree you couldnt use HoH last I checked so this is an alternate route)

I haven’t but a friend did. He’s now a dev making decent money so I think it worked for him

Trying to apply for another position at the same company but my boss told me explicitly that if they find out people on our team are looking for other jobs, they will stop giving that person raises, promotions, bonuses, & access to opportunities. I have spoken with the hiring manager for the new position and he just asked me if I have notified my current manager. Not sure how to navigate this tricky situation. Was hoping to interview before having to tell my manager that I am applying. Ideas?
