Is it worth it to leave a current FTE perm role to work for Google as a freelancing EP, 6+ contract w possible extensions pending budget, performance, fit etc? Debating the massive brand name, pay, and experience but leaving benefits, loose job security with looming recession etc.
*Background: in current role for 2.9 yrs with tiny tiny salary raise this past year that’s still under inflation rate, and no clear path for promotion and further raise. Decent global retail client at tiny shop

What do you currently do, and how many years of experience do you have?
Currently a strategist for a brand and their YouTube account with experience in digital + social advertising and talent scouting for the series. I’m hitting 2 years the end of this month!
Where do you live? If you are Atlanta based i'd be happy to zoom with you and give you the scoop on our market.
Thank you so much! I’ll definitely listen and keep learning. Hoping I’ll learn enough to land a shadow-ship or find a mentor.
Just start taking notes on resources and vendors. Directors, editors, prod companies. Weirdly enough, that’s the type of stuff that the big agencies want to know that you know and have relationships with.
Thank you!
