Tell me about your experiences moving from NYC to LA! Curious to know how work culture differs, and if it's possible to land a job while interviewing from the opposite coast? And, how possible is it to get a moving stipend? I'm junior but looking to find a mid-level role for my next job.

In the current market I’d think you need to make the move on your own and then freelance. It’s not super expensive to physically move from NY to LA. A few companies have direct lines. Or just sell your stuff and start over. Culture is more relaxed than NY but people who want good work definitely put in the hours.

It’s less cutthroat and more relaxed. Most places will give you a moving stipend. The LA market has been tough for a few years now, though.

What's your preference for plaintiff's side? Steady pay at approximately $120k with no bonuses, or a base salary of $70k plus a cut of what you close over a minimum threashold? Midwest-ish market. In both situations, you get a cut of what you bring in.

Hi friends of fishbowl! A year ago I told myself no more agencies. Then I got a job at another agency and I’m basically hating my life more than ever right now. This place is not good for me mentally and I’ve only been here for 90 days. I should’ve listened to my gut but here we are. So my question is what job titles should I be targeting as a senior project manager if I want to go to to client side?
