personally I would stay put at databricks, i've heard really good things about their culture overall

Really? I'm just worried I will be locked into customer success positions. I'm hoping it's still easy to pivot into tpm or product management in FAANG afterwards??

Can I ask how it is as a Customer success engineer at Databricks? Was contacted about this role.

In my last role as a PM I was terminated simply because I wasn't trained properly. They terminated my contract just before the 90 day mark stating it wasn't a match.

Should I bring this up on other job applications/ interviews? If so how?

Yo! I’m going into my final year in ad school and my dream has always been to live and work in NYC (I’m from northern Europe). Most of the people i talk to recommend staying in Europe where I can have more responsibility early on and spend less time doing boring junior stuff and then leave for a mid role after a few years. Anyone have any thoughts or experiences with this? Should i just jump into it straight away? Thanks!:)

I’ve been with my company for 5 years and have never asked for a raise, I’ve accepted annual review we get without question. I’ve now realised I’m getting paid significantly less than the market rate. I’m getting job offers with almost 40% increase. I know my male peers at my company get paid significantly more than me. I love my job and my company but I don’t know how to ask for a raise 🙈 I know I deserve it but don’t know how to ask! Any guidance please ?

I feel like I was straight up lied to during the interview process. “lots of opportunities to hit quota”. I’m sitting here with only one demo two months after joining the company. it looks like our team has only two people doing demos, and demos are only happening once every two weeks. At this rate, I don’t think I’ll be even close to hitting OTE. Are there any other companies hiring right now? I’ll have a discussion about my concerns with my manager soon, but there’s too many red flags here.

Would love to know - do you guys typically see a big difference between Solutions Consultants versus Solutions Engineers? Inherently one sounds more technical than the other, but would love your take.
