I used to pay $99 a year for Hootsuite all of the sudden they auto billed me $588 for the same pro plan. They sent me an email stating I was getting a lot of features they had upgraded through the years and had to raise the price. Has anyone else experienced this? Did you find another source to use instead of Hootsuite? Are they fair in pricing?

I recommend to check out Falcon.io. Many of our customers benefit from the steady pricing.

I jumped from Hootsuite (free version) this summer to Loomly (base version $300 for the year paid annually). I like it a lot. Better features and value compared to what Hootsuite had. They have a free trial and I recommend trying it out.

Should also mention I also got a Lnk.bio account for our Instagram (the only thing missing from Loomly) around the same time which I’m also very happy with. It’s a 1 time $25 fee to have all the features (custom url and page customization, link in bio scheduling) for one account. Most are at least that per month.

Hi all, I got laid off from my current company (product based) a month ago. Since then I've been looking for new opportunities. I got an offer from a good product based company with a good package and also my current company offering me rehire with promotion and a good package. I have a good rapport with my current manager, and he played a major role in offering this rehire opportunity. I'm confused about making the right decision here. Kindly share your views. Both offers are pretty much same.

Hi all! I’m an engineer working in the global health space and I’m finding it’s a small, small pool. I also just found out that a new hire (male, also an engineer) is the reason I got a raise after ~5 years of stagnancy. I love my job, but it’s time to move on. Anyone who’s worked in nonprofit spaces - did you stay? Did you switch to consulting/government/etc or go corporate? I’ve been applying without much response, and I’m debating whether a PMP very or masters is going to be necessary.

And yes, I’m aware leaving is always an option, but eager for any other advice how to navigate.
