Probably.

It was real in that the work was better, the right middle managers were managed out in 2020 for not being able to bring true results/growth to the company, and there was a light at the end of the tunnel in reducing a massive liability (office rents).

It was fake in that the investors and boomer financial malpractice relied on a bad asset (office rents again) to stabilize risky investment portfolios. So we had to get back to keep them afloat. It was inevitable.

Why NYC? Chicago has a great ad market and bigger closets 💀

I feel this. I am stuck where I am (MCOL) and see no viable path to better employment now that remote and regional hubs have dried up. Can't do NYC anymore with my family setup, but I do miss some things. New Plan: Live cheap as hell for the next 3-4 years, invest all of it and pull the plug on this industry while I still can. I will be 46 and probably have around 2 Million in nest egg with a sub 200k mortgage. I sometimes regret my decision to leave the Mecca but then I look at how much I saved the past 6 years.

Is it possible for someone without a degree or tech experience to get a fully remote entry level SDR or BDR role? If so, how? My sister’s boyfriend was fairly successful at a call center a few years ago but has only worked low wage jobs since. Any steady job would be a step up. My current employer wants 2+ YOE in a “professional environment” for the BDR role, which would likely be a barrier even with a referral.
