I work in operations and the pending layoffs here and in tech has me nervous to jump ship. I’ve been here 3 years, and am a top performer. I’m fairly young, so my career experience is here. I got promoted twice within 2 years and love it here! Work life balance is amazing, and my managers have all been very supportive. The compensation is decent but I hear jumping will substantially increase your salary long term.

MSFT, Google, or Apple would be my top choices. Any advice for me?

MAANG is not the place you want to jump ship right now. If you do and layoffs happen soon, you’ll have been there for less than a year and you’ll be first on the chopping block.

If you are a top performer and you are working on critical projects you really have nothing to worry about.

I am in a tech IC position. One of friends switched to FAANG by converting the profile to consultant profile. The friend who might have less tech knowledge than me is now in FAANG and earning more. If the end goal would be that the friend might one day be a product manager and me an engineering manager taking instructions from the same friend, isn't consultant profile an easier path to growth. I had been practising DSA for years and the competition is only ever growing.
