Hi I feel like I'm stuck in my career.
I'm a physical design engineer (vlsi) in a service based organisation where there is no growth or learning. But had to do support projects for more than 16hrs a day and no weekend also.

I wanted to move to product companies like Intel Corporation Nvidia IBM Samsung NXP etc.. What should I do.

I am neither able to make time to prepare nor I have any references from these organisations. How can i grow in my career. I'm 33 years old now with 4+ years exp.

I’ve worked in sales for 12 years (8 years retail sales and management, 4 years inside tech sales and management). I’m feeling the burn and looking for something else in the tech field. I’m making $140k. I have a college degree but no marketing, engineering, or product experience. What other departments/jobs could I jump to and still keep close to my OTE? I’m pretty good at Salesforce and have thought about a SFDC admin type role, but that’s all I’ve thought of so far.

Anyone who got an offer from Accenture consulting able to have them change the home office. Interviewed for DC but now want to stay in NY.

I recently had an interview with BNY for an Analyst role located in DE. The interview went well and I was informed by the recruiter that the team was interested. They asked if I was willing to relocate immediately, and I told him that my decision would be best made if I see an offer. I have not yet received a follow up after this(coming on two weeks) so I know that I've been ghosted. My question is, was I wrong to ask to see the offer before making a decision?
