Hi fishes, am I being too restrictive by limiting the search for my next opportunity to the below? For context, NYC. 12 YOE, of which 3.5 are in internal strategy and 2 as consulting EM / SM equivalent (right now).

1. Product strategy / management role
2. Nyc based, <~50% in office or remote
3. Strong brand in product or tech
4. $300-350K+ TC
5. (Nice to have) people leader role, because that's one of my strengths.

And if not unreasonable, what companies to look at outside of MAANG?

Got it — assume that’s consulting somewhat related to Visas core business. I would still focus on fintech or perhaps other areas where you’ve worked/can bring expertise.

The challenge for many roles is that you’ll be in line behind MBB/T2/B4 managers and also experienced biz ops/strategy folks in tech. But you have higher YOE so that is helpful. Just gotta find a place that values your experience!

You are consulting EM/SM equivalent at Visa? Not sure what that means—visa does consulting?

Your experience may translate well to a lot of fintech companies (eg Coinbase, PayPal, etc.) but probably more towards general biz ops/strategy roles (product strategy is uncommon role, product management if you don’t have previous PM experience will be tough to crack and impossible as a people leader). These should all get you that range of 300-350 tc assuming your 12 yoe is all good yoe.

Sure, go for it

I've applied and networked for my dream job and didn't get an interview this time. Also dissatisfied with compensation and some of the responsibilities at my current job but have a lot of opportunity to learn. So the question is do I stay where I'm not thrilled to be now because it's good experience to set me up for the dream job next time there's an opening, or do I leave now to an option that's better pay and more interesting but farther off the path towards my long term goal?
