I'm being asked to support multiple engagements now. I'm actively looking to move out of consulting. No offers yet. What happens if I slack or not take additional work (possibly ending up on the wrong side of PPMD)? I've decided to move on as soon as I get my 1st offer (not sure when 🤞🏼).
Any suggestions to cope. Thanks.

I think if you’re pushing to move on it won’t affect you at all. If you go beyond a review cycle you could be hurting yourself if you don’t find your new role within a year or less.

Do enough to scrape by and keep looking. As long as you aren’t planning to stay there for years (multiple merit/focal cycles) you should be ok because you aren’t planning to stay anyway.

Any consulting -> Tech sales people out there? Curious how consulting experience is perceived both from a compensation and placement standpoint in the tech world…? What should my expectation be? For context — I SDR’d as a senior in college and was promoted to AE right as I took a BA offer from McKinsey. Wanted to get broad exposure & become a more analytical problem solver… dont regret my decision at all but really loved sales and would like to get back around my 2-3 yr mark.

Hi fishes,

This annual appraisal I have got a good % of appraisal increment on my salary but I was not promoted to a senior developer (although I have been mentoring a junior dev in my team and been part of building the project by implementing new technologies and tweaks) and my total YoE is 3.5+ years. What could be the reasons? What should I do now?

Thanks in advance!!
