I have an offer with a start date in November. It’s 2+ months away, but should I consistently reach out to the recruiter? I don’t know what to say though, since I have a start date, but want to keep them me on their radar.

No. Why? You already have a start date and (I assume) a signed offer letter so their job is done and I don’t know why you need to be on their radar?

Fair enough. I had a bad experience back earlier this year with a company where I had a start date and then they ghosted. But I won’t reach out then

Which firm is it? I’m so desperate to leave but so hard to land an interview/offer😭

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
