To all you wonderful folks, a fundamental question: how does one break into PE Ops? Have 10+ yrs in top tech (FAANG) and 2 yrs in MBB as EM. Also, wondering if it makes sense to hold out for AP before a move?

Looking for advice! I was approved to work remotely but my salary will decrease 10%. I received two raises so the decrease brings me down to my previous salary. I was told that it’s due to the cost of labor in the area.

I’ve been with my company for 8+ yrs, I love my manager and the work I do (engagement, recognition, & wellness programs) but I feel like I’m limiting myself since I have the experience, an HRM degree, and SHRM-CP credentials.
