Landed an awful in-house gig about half a year ago.

-Long hours+weekends
-Really toxic culture with executives constantly yelling at people and made multiple colleagues cried
-Unorganized company structure with tons of internal politics going on
-Due to the company’s operation, there’s no opportunity to do any earned media

However, the pay is really good and it is a fully remote position (for now). Should I wait for at least another half year to jump job or should I start looking now?

As long as you don’t have a pattern on your resume of staying at jobs for under a year, start looking now. Life is too short to be miserable at work.

Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them. Applied 9/1 and on the applicant portal the status still says “in progress.” I got a great internal referral, but I’ve not reached out to the hiring manager. 😬 I know there were a few hundred applicants — what’s a realistic timeline and what could I say to the hiring manager if I reach out to them. Many thanks.
