Vista Equity Partners and Thoma Bravo are probably the best two tech investment firms around. Track record is outstanding — don’t know about culture

Lots of leader churn at Vista recently (on the consulting/operations side)

Yes, have heard that too. That said, the churn is still higher than expected

Need help deciding if this offer is worth moving for. Received an offer from Booz Allen Hamilton for an Associate level Sr. Systems Engineer in Los Angeles for $135k base. I countered $150k and a $15k singing bonus and asked if I could be brought on as a lead associate since I've been a lead/manager for a while in my current company.

Current company TC: $125k in Utah.
YOE: 7 with M.S. and MBA

Is the switching cost/risk and higher COL worth it?

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.
