How's the job market, Salesforce architects? I'm looking to change it up, but worried about what's out there. Anyone else feeling bleak?

Better for architects than I have seen at any time in the past 2 1/2 years, but still vastly less than what I was seeing from late 2020 - Summer 2022.

Still pretty bad, but getting slightly better.

For new folks, it’s a bit of a bloodbath. For experienced, it’s not that bad so long as you have a good niche and focus area that’s marketable in the future. (CPQ folks, skill up now to other options)

Really depends on the implementation and complexity needed but probably Revenue Cloud, custom Sales Cloud, or a non-Salesforce product entirely.

There will be lots of organizations hanging out on CPQ til they can budget off it, though. Just not a great long-term learning investment.

Been unemployed for a little over a month now. 5 YOE in consulting. Sent out about 40 apps to a mix of in-house Sr. Admin and Consultant/SA roles. 2 interviews so far. Hope that helps.

Hello!
I was wondering what kind of contractual or other barriers I might face if I apply for one of the big 4 while working on a project with them in my current company.

The position that I am applying for is in a different team and city.
Will this considered “poaching” if the consulting firm hires me? Would they need to talk to my current employer?
