I think it’s easy to get in a rut in your current client project or practice and plateau in learning. So for this year, I’m prioritizing self learning and would love any insights or advice you have on the following related to strategy consulting (or life in general!):

1. Best book recommendations
2. Best external trainings that are market relevant
3. Anything else that has personally made you sharper

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?
