KPMG recently hit me with the PIP or Career Transition option and I chose the latter. Gave me 90 days to search for a new role and I still get paid out my salary until my separation date. Something told me a few months ago to start looking for an exit. The same week as the HR call, I was already interviewing in the final round. Received the offer last week. Happy to go! 😁✌🏽

Manager - 179K - MCOL

Job offer:

180K base
45K bonus
ESPP - 15 percent discount
4.5 percent 401K
Unlimited PTO

Fortune 250 company. Fortunately, it wasn’t a ton. The role I actually received came from a recruiter who reached out to me first through LinkedIn (I have open to recruiters only on my profile). We started having conversations late March/April and I met the team, had a couple rounds, then had my final round onsite with the rest of the team recently. Their entire process took maybe 3-4 weeks total.

In that same time frame I had put in probably a couple dozen apps and had received a few phone calls. However, I basically stop pursuing those roles and gave this one my full attention and it worked out.
