The less purely technical, the more generally applicable. But most of the biggest companies use Salesforce Sales and/or Service Cloud, so it will never not be an asset. Focus on the architect side, get into Mulesoft/Heroku/Tableau, and a lot of that stuff is transferrable to any enterprise architecture/data analytics role.

I mean every company has roles that have applicable and transferable skills. This is just an atrocious question lol

I've been a government attorney for nearly three years now and have worked in the same office/division since I passed the bar. I've yet to receive a promotion other than two cost of living increases (in sum, a pay increase of 6k over 3 years). I know this is meager, but I'm mostly ok with it, I just want to see some recognition. On the other hand, it's hard for me to imagine negotiating because (given my inexperience), I don't feel I'd be able to do better anywhere else. Any advice?
