Is the exit opportunity as good as advertised? I remember my old college recruiting events always glamorized on the skip level exit opportunities when you jump to industry. I'm curious how true that actually is?

I recently had a recruiter reach out to me about two positions, abm and demand gen, at a large corporate biz with a huge marketing team. I’ve been working on a small team of 3 and I do all the digital marketing, my focus is driving revenue. I work closely with sales. I thought my skill set was an excellent match and it sounded like a really good opportunity to advance my career and learn. The interview was not long enough for me to get a feel of the position nor did I feel like (continued)

Salaries would be comparable (Lilly would most likely be a little more with bonuses), but if the culture sucks, I’d hate to burn a bridge with Envigo.

Why has real estate remained lucrative?
Mainly agents but also developers.

The barrier to entry is low, not even sure if graduating high school is needed. My old agent even said she did it bc she can make a lot money and not work that much. She drove a new Mercedes and sent her kids to private school, husband was also an agent.

So I’m curious why it didn’t get flooded and the profit margin dampened to a $/hr closer to other jobs with similarly easy entry?
