In discussion w/ a bank on a cool role that I would enjoy but only VP level. I'm SM2. All other colleagues younger/lower level than me went out as Director/ED. What criteria can me make the decision?

Not worrying about titles and worrying more if you like the role

Responsibilities are more important than titles. There are VP titles everywhere

Total $$$ and how desparate you are to take the offer.

Reconciling yourself that you missed the good exit point and are now getting a bit of a haircut for it. It's like you blew past the freeway exit and the next one has construction at it.

Love the consultant speak. Let me guess ...now we owe you $300 for this hour?

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.
