Never quit before you have another option. You are just shooting yourself in the foot and lost leverage for salary negotiations.

That was a risky move given the current economic situation. It really depends on your experience. Companies are still hiring, but not at the pace they were 3-6 months ago. Also seeing less fully remote roles as more companies are pushing hybrid. Hopefully you find something quickly!

Definitely risky, but absolutely worth it for your sanity you know? I would say now is the time to connect with people at companies and start to network a bit for an easier way in. Referrals get more traction than applications. Good luck!! Sending job offer vibes your way!

Well, I’ve been on my remote job search since January. Saying it has been challenging would be an understatement.

I'm in desperate need of tips to get genuine buy in from our predominantly white, male senior leadership to create a more inclusive environment. As is often the case, middle management and below is very diverse and then at Director+ it gets much more homogeneous. So far any real initiatives get shot down in favor of performative actions to post on SM. Is this just how it is, or can we try something different?

I got an offer at Meta as a 3-mo contingent CSM that pays 2x what I make now.

Two pros: 1) Making the jump from a non-tech agency role to FAANG can be tough, so this is a great oppo in that aspect.
2) I'm living in SF on a non-tech salary, so the pay increase would be incredible.

It’s possible I could move into a similar role @ Meta once this expires, but to be safe, I'd need to start the job hunt again asap.

Thoughts on the pivot & how valuable a short-stint at Meta is for future job hunt?
