i485 was filed in July (current then), likely still a year out. There’s a chance I get a promotion in Feb, is there anything I should be aware of/worry about? Lawyers don’t think so since it’s not a major change.

By February your lawyer would be able to file a portability request (I-485 supplement J) to address any changes on job title/duties etc.

Thank you!!

No I had a promo while mine was processing and it was a non issue. It’s expected given the continuity of business and how long it takes to process these days. Just make sure it’s in the same line of work and the responsibilities aren’t materially different. For me I went from a health aligned manager to sr manager in consulting and it wasn’t an issue. In my case, if it were to another industry segment or to an internal group it may have been an issue.

Any suggestions from mature audience to achieve a big pay raise.

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?

Need some feedback! So I was forced to move jobs about 6 months ago due to reorg and the new leader opting to bring their existing EA with them, without even meeting me. If stayed at the company but accepted an offer for a job outside of the department I was in. I’ve now been asked by a manager from my old department to apply for a job they’re opening that would be a 2 step promotion. She thought she got my managers permission to approach me (see comments)
