Is this a tech or industry offer? Also, did you share your current salary/expectation or any other number?

Industry. And never discussed numbers but they are aware of my current comp level

I've never had more 5, if you count each offer by each side as an offer, i.e., initial offer from the company, counter from me, second offer from company, counter from me (at this point I've only had small changes made, like an increase in vacations, never a significant comp change), final offer.

Hi Fishes,

I have applied to one of the roles about 10 days back and I didn't recieve any calls regarding my screening or interview.

Can someone tell me how many days does it take for the initial screening to happen after applying.

Also, how much time will it take for all the process to happen ( screening + interview + final discussion).

Thanks in advance

I’ve been proposed an exit as Product Owner at a real company, not a consulting one. Staff seems nice, good culture, good salary (less than consulting but well), BUT I would have to move countries for that job and start a new life.

I’ve also been proposed a Manager position at a consulting company in my home city, with potential of bigger salary thanks to bonuses. Culture seems good... But I’m sure it’s gonna be a hell lot of work.

Which one would you take? Should I exit and never look back?
