On leveling up: any suggestions for managers leveling up their value in marketable areas? I know about PMP certification, but was wondering what skill set is needed if you need to change to something new. Training / coursework suggestions? Thanks!

What’s your industry and company area?

ERP and software implementations and migration. A few devops project and ux/ui customization. Data center moves. A ton of support work. That sort of thing.

And would you consider being an ERP consultant for example or do you want to stay as a manager?

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either. Then you get an interview and they tell you it’s remote/hybrid(1-2-3days, take your pick)/on-site. So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?
