The dilemma I’m facing is the only way to initiate a conversation is using Deloitte mail or Skype.

Reach out. Why not. I can’t imagine they would out you for asking about an opening

Hiya Guys, so I can tell I am burned out and inching into the grey pit of complacency. The burn out is already here, but the slide into grey-pit is not acceptable. I have a masters in business admin, 8+yrs of hospitality management experience, and a bachelors in science.

I really need advice/strategy for skill development, despite burn out and the weakened motivation. I am in a role that can, (in 2+ yrs), make me eligible to start at entry-level position in an area I want. I don't have 2 yrs.

There’s an opportunity to step up into the role of Director of Product, but I’ve only got 2.5 years of experience and am already being paid below average by like 15%. I’ve accepted this because A. My company has historically underpaid people but I still like the people and B. My lack of experience. I think a promotion would come with a raise, but the percentage difference would most likely only grow and I’m not sure that would be ok with the responsibilities I’d be stepping into. Any 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.
