Idk if this post is going to make people mad but I left my consulting position in April and started a new internal position (for higher pay) this week and I can’t even begin to describe how much better being internal is like holy cow. I actually feel like I can be productive and contribute without worrying about if I am taking too long on a task and ruining the budget. Also, just the absolute hungriest and desperation in consulting is so exhausting. If consulting is not 4 u, it’s OKAY❤️

That doesn't make me mad at all. It's kind of heartening to know there may be light at the end of this dark and dank and confusing tunnel. Being productive, huh, that's quite a concept, I hope to try it someday.

Hi! I have worked in management roles in tech, mainly in analytics, for approximately 10 years. My TC has fluctuated (currently around 135K CAD), but it seems like it's relatively easy to breach the 100K bar, but hard to breach the 150K bar. I now work at the CBC, but I have worked in the private sector too. What is the most realistic way to move to 200K? 1) Continue moving the ladder to a VP position, 2) Switch to Pre-Sale, 3) Switch to Consulting, 4) Work from a U.S. company from Canada.

I am worried that I am being benchmarked on a wrong job title.

Sales Manager vs International Manager or should it be something else?

My employer is based in China, while I am in France. I remotely manage a global sales team, with team members from around the globe. They all work remotely as well.

Being remote, and managing an international remote team, I would like to know what should be my job title? Any idea or professionals that I may contact, please?

Thank you.
