CSO’s core skills are political, recruiting talent and establishing process. Why would anyone want that job?

Just enjoy what you do day to day. If you don’t love the job it won’t get any better the more senior you get. The stakes are higher and the scale is bigger but you’re still a strategist as CSO (albeit with a better salary)

$250k (pre-tax) working 70 hrs/week is definitely not a bag.

Haha! 😂

Point still stands. Consistently working insane C-Suite hours week after week seems like a bum deal no how much money. What’s the point in making half a million dollars if you never have time away from the job to spend it?

Just out of curiosity, why do you want that job?

I’m a GSD and the leap to CSO does not look particularly attractive except for the pay bump.

That’s fair. However, I’m not trying to stay a Senior Planner forever LOL.
