Left Big 4 as a new Manager to take a Controller role. After 2 years, I think I know for sure that I don't enjoy this and think some sort of consulting would suit me better. Any suggestions or advice?

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Just got the call from a recruiter that they won’t be moving forward with my application after reviewing my take-home writing assignment.

They gave me good feedback on it, and I have it in the back of my mind that they are using applicants from consulting as free labor. Anyone else feel this way about interview take-home assignments??
