Anyone have experience working CWX side of Facebook (Meta) ? These are the full time contract roles that potentially turn into permanent roles directly with Facebook (Meta). Had a recruiter reach out and offering me comparable TC and such, just curious if anyone has experience in these roles and success/failure of transitioning into permanent role. Thanks in advance!
Time to buy SQQQ / TTT / TZA?

Honestly, I just don't see how it's practical if you're serious about hitting your numbers. Our clients aren't taking Fridays off, and deals don't put themselves on hold for a three-day weekend. Every single hour is an opportunity to chase leads, build relationships, and close business. If you're not in front of people, or on the phone, or crafting that perfect proposal, someone else is. The constant hustling isn't a bug, it's the feature of a high-performing sales career. Trying to cram five days of quota-hitting into four would just intensify the tension, not relieve it. You want a break? Hit your accelerators early and then maybe take some time, but expecting a compressed week to yield the same results in a competitive landscape just isn't how the game is played.
I can see it working, but more for certain industries. We’ve been focusing more on outcome vs hours. Let the employees figure out what works best as there is no one size fits all. A lot of different clients out there.
I've always liked the idea of a four-day week, but I don't see it happening. While it sounds like it would be good for us in some ways, we'd also be out of step with the rest of the business world. Having one day a week where I'd be missing doesn't seem like it would work out well.
